Elizabethan Humors

Thursday, October 14, 2010

Today I'm wondering about humor. [And not the gross Elizabethan bodily fluid kind] What gives us our sense of humor? Why does everyone find different things funny? Do you think it's related to what we're exposed to? Our interests? I'm big on the interests theory. Although I'm not that interested in farts or burps, but I find them pretty funny...

But think about it, I could tell a singer joke, and most of the world wouldn't find it that funny. For example: How many sopranos does it take to screw in a lightbulb? Three. One to stand on the chair, one to hold her diet coke, and one to kick the chair out from under her and say "I knew that was too high for you, dear."

See. Most of you don't find that funny, I bet. Anyway, I also think that sense of humor has way more to do with the success of a relationship than music taste. It says way more about you. That's about it... I'm trying to download the new Ke$ha single and it's not working for me. Not amused.
