As far as I can tell, comedians are pretty serious people, and that's why they make fun of things all of the time.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I guess ultimately a lot of comedians just wanna be taken seriously.
In real life, comedians aren't funny.
Comedy is simply a funny way of being serious.
I think comedians have a function in society, which is to make fun of our icons.
Professional comedians, surprisingly, have a lack of humor. They're insensitive to the insanity of our times.
People complain that joking about serious subjects is 'making light' of them. Isn't that a good idea? Comedy lets the air out of the bully's tires.
I don't consider myself a comedian because I don't really concern myself too much with jokes.
Comedians are sometimes resentful of their writers. Probably because it's hard for giant egos to admit you need anyone but yourself to be what you are.
Comedians don't laugh. They're too busy analyzing why it's funny or not.
I think a comedian has to be low status on some level; that gives you the right to do all sorts of jokes about all sorts of different kinds of people.
