Applause has moved its way into stand up comedy. When someone makes a joke that isnt all too funny; meaning not funny enough to laugh at, people clap. Watch stand up, there is lots of clapping.
I dont think the audience is agreeing with the racist joke George Lopez just said, either.

George Lopez is a social critic as much as he is a comedian. The applause does not denotate laughter, laughter does.
