It's perfectly okay if you don't understand every single one of them. For one thing, I make a lot of corny jokes, and you have to be 40 years old to get some of them.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
For 35 years, I was a writer. I wrote a lot of jokes. Some of them weren't funny. Some of them weren't appropriate. Some of them were downright offensive. I understand that.
One of my biggest problems with comedy was that I did not understand some of the jokes.
I don't care if my jokes are appropriate for a kid.
They're just jokes, people. They can't all be funny.
The great thing is that the funny side of getting old is fuel for my comedy.
Good comedy is ageless.
I am edgy, raw, offensive, vulgar, untruthful, but intelligent. My jokes are always realistic. I do not make fun of children or people who cannot fight back. That is my limitation.
Most of the people I know in comedy are not weird or messed up.
There's just something about youth and comedy that go together. Maybe it's that foolishness, that silliness that you can get away with when you're younger, that you can't get away with when you're older.
My comedy is for children from three to 93. You do need a slightly childish sense of humour and if you haven't got that, it's very sad.
