Joke

The play Madea On the Run was first and foremost highly entertaining. At almost every minute, there was some type of dialogue or action that made the audience laugh. The witty and sometimes insulting humor between the characters created banter throughout the play that was easily enjoyable. At some parts they would comment on someone else’s size, love life, or give them a humorously stern lecture about hard truths, and that dialogue was really fun to watch. The other entertaining moments I liked…

Emily Fox ENG 2750 5/26/16 Exam: A Midsummer Night's Dream 1. Comedy is a very complex genre because many people react to humor differently - and what one person might find funny, another might not. Most often, comedy is about something that is considered universally funny, or about something related to our present day culture. For example, many people find TV Shows that talk about current events in a comic way hilarious, but for someone not aware of the current events they are making fun of,…

Bakhtin considered Dostoyevsky’s The Idiot one of the vivid manifestations of carnivalisation in literature, where such elements of carnival culture as ambivalence of the situations and events, fantastic and bizarre mixture of people in one place, and the notion of carnival reduced laughter begin shaping literary work through its mode of narration, structure and characters. I would like to focus on the way laughter is incorporated into the narration of The Idiot and on what functionality it is…

“But hardly had he succeeded in regaining a straight face than he glanced again, as if involuntarily, at Razumikhin, and broke down once more: the smothered laughter burst out all the more uncontrollably for the powerful restraint he had put on it before” (Dostoevsky 210). In an attempt to maintain his facade of an innocent man, Raskolnikov intentionally laughs at Razumikhin as they approach Porfiry’s door. Fearful that Porfiry will deceive him, Raskolnikov presents himself as a carefree man to…

Finding your walk My clown walk is a typical drunken hobo walk when I’m drunk I feel warm inside and have almost no feeling outside and I feel like I’m not in control, when I try running I feel like I was a salt shaker being shaken. I degenerate into a disgusting combination of sweat, spilled alcohol and vomit. I drink to remove my pain I deal with every day and it make me happy for a while. I can’t stand straight and I move side to side not knowing what’s happening around me. The reason…

Kevin Mitnick is an interesting person. Throughout the whole video I noticed that he laughed a lot, especially when he was talking about his past as a hacker. To me, that showed that he was not sorry for what he had done and it showed arrogance. Although the video was not a particularly long one, it had enough information in it to paint a picture as to the person that Mitnick is today. At first I was not a fan of Mitnick, but later I started to warm up to him a tad. Overall, I enjoyed this video…

The concept of humor is targeted around a person producing a comical statement or something that produces laughter and enjoyment to an audience. In the book titled Status Anxiety by Alain de Botton, the writer hypothesizes that the position of humor in society is to bring out repressed mind and messages that regular human beings can relate and apprehend without restriction from others. I trust that de Botton's stance toward humor having a vital role within the feature of society is true, because…
