Three comedians stepped on stage that night. One of them was switching between spitting blunt jokes and giving life advice in a serious tone. I thought it was great. Even the heaviest of topics can be made a digestible with humour. It doesn’t mean everyone will be able to handle everything. Some people have a strong stomach and can absorb whatever you throw at them. Whereas some folks’ bowl movements tend to get easily upset from even the tiniest amount of spiciness. Burning buttholes and liquid discharge are not pleasant but I feel being able to laugh about it makes things more bearable.
Life is a bit of a comedy and a tragedy at the same time, isn’t it? One moment it’s all fun and games and a split second later the waterproof Maybelline mascara is running like an oil spill over your face. In good times, we can cry tears of joy. In bad times, we can smile wryly. Life is beautiful. Humour can put things into perspective. Bad breath, premature ejaculation, getting into an accident, last-minute cancellation, would it help to cry and complain about it? Maybe for awhile but then it’s time to make lemonade.
A lot of people say being funny is an important and attractive trait for a companion. I think it’s because there are good vibes and feelings associated with this person. It has less to do with the entertainment value he/she provides. So in my opinion, it’s not the joke itself that’s important but how that joke makes you feel. The worst thing is to explain a joke. The one who makes the joke doesn’t feel understood. The one who doesn’t get it feels stupid. If it happens multiple times, both parties feel they are not on the same level. You can find a comedian hilarious while your partner says “meh”. Time and exposure might help to appreciate someone’s style but sooner than later you’ll hear things such as “he’s so childish”, “the shit she says is so dumb”. My high level of humour of course never provokes such reactions.
I know you’re all dying to know who cracked the best jokes. Well, we found the guy who spent most of his time interacting and vibing with the audience quite funny.
