They can't wrap their head around people who find humor and basically bashing themselves to bits. But when you get into comedy itself, a lot of great comedians use this tool of the self burn and sarcasm to come up with crazy clever stuff. And that, to me, is a good measure to know when you're dealing with a great comedian, it is when they can equally talk bad about themselves as well as they can do to others

We need to lighten things up because we're constantly looking at things over, over and and over and they can bring you to a state of depression. But I love to laugh. I love to make my family laugh. So sometimes it's dark, but as far as me, where someone needs to say, hey, do you need me to call someone? No, I haven't done that to myself, but again, make fun of myself sometimes. Alrighty

And as I stated, sometimes family can be concerned for me when in fact, it's funny that they would draw such concern from the brand of comedy that I tend to like at times. But that's interesting that you never had that occur to you or happened to you, and you said it's within the comforts of your own home. So I'm guessing, on average, that's kind of how it is with most people that they do have certain spectrums and ranges of dark humor

Hey, wonderful. So I didn't know that it had a title like I never knew it was called The Self Burn or whatever, but I'm definitely familiar with the concept. I know that comedians have always made fun of themselves or done that for quite a while. Now. What is it called? I'm very self aware, and I hold myself to a really high standard, I guess, is what you could say. So I'm kind of really hard on myself

It's 09:23 a.m. And it's a Sunday, but I'm on a two week vacation, so this today doesn't really have any true effect on me, and I'm trying to stay up a little bit today. I'm not sure or when I want to go to sleep, but we'll see anyhow good luck when you do decide to spring that side of you into action. I'd love to hear it

Someone is sleepy real quick. I did share actually, right now it's on my profile about being mixed in America. You can check it out if you want. Yeah. Maybe I will try that out one day or go more in depth into it. But yeah, go take a nap

And so at your own expense. I think there's nothing wrong with that. But I would just look at the kernel of truth aspect for me, I have had experience with depression, so I don't know. It's all a matter of taste and what you feel comfortable with and what your audience wants to hear and needs to hear. So keeping those things in mind, I think you're funny

It's hard to explain, but I would say that I deal with the low points of my life by revealing it and making fun of it, and it helps me get through it. But I do understand for some people that it can be very corrosive if they were to attempt that themselves because they just don't see the value in health. They don't see the value in a certain brand of humor that can be perceived as negative

Yeah, and it's true, like time heals. And so does humor. I support that. And I'm not trying to say that you're like a troublemaker or something. Frankly, I don't have to say it. We all know what you are. You're worse. You're perfect. I see quite a few man anyway. So is that funny? Is that good or is that bad? Are you laughing? Okay. There's a joke. All men are perverts
