Why did Laurel always get Hardy into another fine mess?

I love Laurel and Hardy.
Characters operating on two totally different plains 😀

Because Hardy was the quintessential comic fall-guy.

@BijouPleasurette 😆they seem to attract misfortune and if not that stan laurel too bring it on oliver hardy inadvertently and oliver gets the shitty end of the stick from stans thoughtless actions

He liked cleaning up his mess?

Cuz' it was funny 🥸

Usually
