Let me start: they say that if you make a girl laugh, you are twice as likely to get a relationship with her. Unfortunately for me, 2 x 0 = 0
Lots of famous authors have written about me. For example, when I was born I inspired Nietzsche's "The Birth of a Tragedy", which has been mistakenly printed with the 'a' ever since the first edition.

Humour and Self Deprecating bumped into each other one day. one said I am here to make you laugh and the other I am here to make you miserable. the contrast between them was so great that they ended up getting together, magnetic strict, not because they liked each other but because they want to prove each other out. icy water would crack under the pressure but if they both stood on it they may just tip off and glide their likeliness so inherently flawed.
so who will outdo the other?

I usually find that humour is the killer when it comes to girls. Comments along the lines of 'Oh my God! You're SO funny!' usually come before 'You're my BEST friend!' - which kills any date stone dead.Originally Posted by Oedipus
I like self-deprecating humour. I have much to deprecate...
"I should only believe in a God that would know how to dance. And when I saw my devil, I found him serious, thorough, profound, solemn: he was the spirit of gravity- through him all things fall. Not by wrath, but by laughter, do we slay. Come, let us slay the spirit of gravity!" - Nietzsche
Self deprecating humour - that's one of the four humours isn't it?
"Comedy is tragedy plus time," pronounced the mighty Caesar. (SID Caesar, that is.)
I thought that was Woody Allen?

You go through what at the time seems insurmountable trauma. You survive and time goes by. After a while you realize you had little if no perspective about the situation you 'couldn't see the forest for the trees' so to speak. It seems almost laughable now, and sometimes it is. You feel foolish. I have no problems with it and understand how it comes about as if I wrote the book myself.
I make fun of myself and of everybody else really. My brother has said that he is a good storyteller and I am a good subject for stories. He is lucky I laugh at myself cause my friends think he makes to much fun of me.
I make fun of my social awkwardness but it also annoys me to no end.
I hope death is joyful, and I hope I'll never return -Frida Khalo
If I seem insensitive to what you are going through, understand it's the way I am- Mr. Spock
Personally, I think that the unique and supreme delight lies in the certainty of doing 'evil'–and men and women know from birth that all pleasure lies in evil. - Baudelaire
Sid Caesar's comedy show predated Crimes and Misdemeanors by two or three decades. Woody was a staff writer on that show, so maybe that's where he originally got the idea. I first heard the quotation from a Mel Brooks interview. Mel was also one of Sid's writers.
