student asking question

Shouldn't it need "the" in front of "funniest" because it is the superlative form of "funny"? Or is it okay to skip "the" in verbal form?

There should be a "the" in front of "funniest" for the sentence to be grammatically correct. However, he skips "the" here because he is speaking in a casual way.
