5. I think dogs know when they are being funny

They are a lot more self-aware than we think and are usually in on the joke. This one's a real comedian.

9. I totally agree

My dog def knows when he's being funny. Also, tale wagging is how they laugh.

7. What it means when a dog looks away

I take care of dogs for a side gig, so I see this behavior a lot. Basically for dogs staring in they eyes when they are close together is perceived as a challenge or a threat, and when they look away it is showing submissiveness or even kind of an apology for doing something they know is wrong. So this is normal behavior. If the dog did not look away I would actually be a little worried that guy was about to get bit.

10. This is true, but this dog is *really* exaggerating the behavior

He perhaps gets positive rewards for doing so.
