what Joan Rivers attempts to be
what I am in fact attempting to be
We all attempt it.
Some of
us succeed, some of us fail.
Some of us are "funny" without meaning to be.This is the less desired type of "funny".
Some of us try to be the first kind of "funny" (the good kind) but instead become the other kind.(eg;Joan Rivers(and possibly me) )
Always make sure you are funny-haha, and not funny-peculiar.Make people laugh with you and not at you.
However, it can be difficult for some people to avoid funny-peculiarness.
Even more alarming, some people strive for this disturbing type of funny.eg; Paris Hilton or
Jessica Simpson, just to name
two.(Also, see words such as
silly, Stupid, ridiculous and bimbotastic...if that word is
even here..is it?It should be, you know.
example 1; "HAHAHHAHAHAH!!!!!!!Good one, I'm laughing and my sides hurt, I love banana jokes, good on you!!"(followed by more laughter.If the laughter becomes hysterical or uncontrollable, it is possible that you have exceeded yourself into hilarious territory.That's "funny" times 2.COngratulations.
example 2; "Stay away from that old
guy in the
hat and overcoat who wanders around the park all day.I think he seems a little bit "funny" (see also
weird )
or
"You're a "funny" little thing aren't you?"
(this is seldom a compliment (although anyone who is "a funny little thing" may take it as one.
or
"
Jessica Simpson thinks fish have wings and they fly.Isn't that funny?"
(you don't EVER want to be THAT "funny")
