If you tell a joke in the forest, but nobody laughs, was it a joke?
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I've never really told jokes. I'm not good at it.
A joke is a way to say, 'I'm going to do something funny now. If I don't get a laugh at the end, I'm a failure.'
Dominic Sherwood would always tell me a joke right before it was my take or my close up. He'd say a funny joke, and I couldn't stop laughing, even after they said, 'Action.'
In polite society one laughs at all the jokes, including the ones one has heard before.
I couldn't deliver a joke if you asked me to. It would have to be live and spontaneous. And that's what I was able to have in New York, at 9 o'clock in the morning, and people all over the country seemed to respond to it.
One time when somebody showed up in a wedding dress, but I never knew if it was a joke, or she was serious. She asked me to marry her. She was serious. It was pretty funny.
I can't write a joke. I could never write. I do a lot of stories and I call them stories, but they're just comedy recitals on a given subject.
I never told a joke in my life.
I cannot tell a joke. But I can do a situation, that it becomes a joke.
When you think about a walking tree, laughter is the response.
