Things I've Learned - Pt.6

i've spent a lot of time watching Comedy Central, most of it stand-up shows and blue collar tv.. heh! anyways, the one thing i've learned is that people will laugh at anything.

much as we harp on about political correctness, people will still laugh at retard jokes, blond jokes, racist jokes, fat jokes, everything.. and i agree with that. we gotta have a funny bone, and be able to take things with a chill pill, sit back and laugh at ourselves.

charlie chaplin said that the essence of comedy is pain - how true. someone's pain is always involved for us to have a few laughs. but we must learn to laugh at ourselves first. if anything, it'll only make you less self-conscious about things that bother you.
