    To me, comedy is a funny story, joke, or sentence that makes me laugh out loud and that allows me to forget all my problems and miseries. I find the American sitcom “Friends” to be very funny. In each episode of the sitcom that ran for ten seasons, starting in 1994 and ending in 2004, the 6 friends: Rachel, Ross, Joey, Chandler, Phoebe, and Monica encountered different problems and situations that they solved in their own unique way. Watching comedy is like taking a break, having a good laugh,…

    expect stern verbosity and intellectual perplexity. An exception to this norm, Dave Barry pleasantly plays with rhetoric and satire to convey an opinion while simultaneously humoring the reader. His article, “Discover Your House,” is so saturated with jokes that at a first glance, one may feel as if his purpose was simply to make them laugh; it seems as if it provides no real objective. This, however, is his unforeseen genius. Dissecting his prose wit by quip unfolds how Barry 's uniquely…

    Humorists Everyone has a different sense of humor, whether it’s sarcastic or even stupid. Some, like Alain de Botton, the author of the 2004 novel Status Anxiety, believe that humorists play a vital role in society; however, that role cannot be considered vital in society today. While some believe that humorists are vital because they are able to make insulting (and sometimes inappropriate) insinuations about others, having the ability to get away with such an atrocity is not necessarily a…

However, the way the set is laid out and the choices for costumes and some aspects of the acting were quite enjoyable. The script was my main issue that clouded over many of the other parts. To understand the show, we must first see what it is about. The Skin of Our Teeth by Thornton Wilder is a play that takes part in three acts. It follows the Antrobus family and their maid…
