funny peculiar
Weird, not humorous
Funny peculiar distinguishes the "strange" sense of funny from the "humorous" sense.
The phrase comes from the clarifying question "Funny ha-ha or funny peculiar?"—asked when someone says something is funny and the listener wants to know which meaning is intended.
That's funny peculiar, not funny ha-ha.
