Sentiment: POSITIVE
I think great humor lies in playing the truth of a situation. I see myself as a performer and that applies to a Greek drama or a modern comedy.
Humour has to have a huge nugget of truth to be funny. You cannot laugh at something unbelievable. Whenever I say something on a lighter note, I am basically unwrapping the truth from a different perspective, and that makes it funny.
I think serious situations actually make for the best kind of belly laughs. But they're also the hardest to convert into comedy at the outset.
If you think something's funny, go with that. Most comedians pull jokes from a place of honesty.
I tend to deal with most issues with humor... always have and always will.
I like situational comedy when people are being completely serious and yet you can find something extremely funny, not jokes.
I use a lot of humor, and I follow the saying that if you want to tell people the truth, you better make them laugh first; otherwise, they will shoot you.
Humor can alter any situation and help us cope at the very instant we are laughing.
Humor is always based on a modicum of truth. Have you ever heard a joke about a father-in-law?
A sense of humor is a major defense against minor troubles.
