Did you hear that the zip lock bag broke up with the Saran wrap? Too clingy.
I make up and say dumb jokes all the time. Sometimes I get lucky and find a funny one. Me and the family went to Chili’s for dinner tonight. The server took my order – a steak with salad. I asked for balsamic vinaigrette dressing. She said “how do you want that cooked?”. I said “you cook the vinaigrette?” She laughed. My wife just stared at me. She said I was like Burt in Mary Poppins with the entire band of instruments on his back – I can make the jokes, say the jokes, and laugh at the jokes and I don’t even need anyone else. Haha … she’s right. As long as I have fun telling the joke I don’t think I care if anyone else laughs :-D.
I think I find the greatest joy in finding the humor in everything, and I mean everything. My mind instantly goes to a movie scene, a comedy routine, or just the irony or pun hiding in everything. I do everything else because I have to – haha. I think in another life I would have been a writer in a comedy series or an actor in an ensemble group like Seinfeld. I would have been Kramer … maybe Jerry but let’s not get too big headed.
Sometimes I encounter people and I think “Why so serious? You’re gonna blow a gasket. Ease up … find something to laugh about”. I cannot imagine a life where there wasn’t comedy. I cannot go a day without making a joke or a movie reference or observing a pun. Ask anyone around me. In fact (here comes a movie reference), in meetings, if I observe or think of something funny I will almost always interrupt the meeting to make the joke. Sometimes I have to contain myself but it’s a lot like this if I do ….. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sDsgkRW2hDA
“No toon can resist the old shave and a haircut”. I cannot resist telling a joke or pointing out a pun. If I worked in corporate America I am sure I would have been fired 10 times by now. I’m sure my leadership team fantasizes about firing me all the time, or worse.
