Comedian

Depending on the types of jokes and the manner in which they present them, the rare breed called "comedians" is one of the most intelligent types of people you will ever find inhabiting the planet. In a school classroom situation they are always the bright smart arses in the top class.

Anyone can tell a joke, but to tell a good, witty and tasteful joke is truly a rare gift. The people who possess this gift are comedians.

Comedaction

(n.) A genre that is the combination of both Comedy and Action. The action itself may be simultaneously comedic, or the comedy and action may be presented in tandem.

"Hot Fuzz" was more of a comedaction than "Shaun of the Dead", but not by much. "Team America", on the other hand, may be classified as a comedaction, but I personally believe it's more of a comedy, despite the action sequences.

Sit-Down Comedian

A term coined by Hanley to characterize her mother Amy; the worlds first sit down comedian. Essentially, a sit down comedian is a true talent, pound for pound, whose beauty, witticisms and jocularity outweighs their body mass.

Comedy can be compared to that of bacteria. Its misuse and overuse leads to a significant loss in its effectiveness. A Newer, stronger strain must evolve over time in order for it to live on. For that reason, it’s inevitable a mutation of some kind will arise for it to become more resilient. In this case the ‘supersatire’ was sit down. Which proved to be highly infectious. :P
The idea was born when Amy was faced with the challenge of performing whilst standing. The performer saw no choice but to replace the comical aspect of stand up with sit down comic theatre, Putting a new happy fat face on comedy.

"I hear that sit-down comedian Amy is Notorious for eating doughnuts while performing on stage"
