So i watched the pink panther last night, and so i'm trying desperately to be funny, and then it's just not working out so good... i wonder if maybe i could've been a comedian or something like that, or maybe i could've been a doctor, then i wouldn't have to make anyone laugh.

More From Dave Matthews

I'm not offended. lenny bruce taught me that everything's funny. you can make everything funny. i don't think that assassinations are funny, i don't think you can make fun of isis, but almost everything is funny. and if we can't laugh at ourselves, who can we laugh at? so i don't mind ethnic humor. i like ethnic humor. i like dialect jokes. laughter is a very subjective thing. if it's funny to you it's funny. and a lot of things are funny to me.
Laughter Fun Thinking
If a comedian tells a joke that you find funny, you laugh. if he tells a joke you do not find funny, dont laugh. or you could possibly go as far as groaning or rolling your eyes. then you wait for his next joke; if thats funny, then you laugh. if its not, you dont laugh - or at very worst, you can leave quietly.
Eye Laughing Waiting
The problem is that we live in an uptight country. why don't we just laugh at ourselves? we are funny. gays are funny. straights are funny. women are funny. men are funny. we are all funny, and we all do funny things. let's laugh about it.
Country Laughter Gay
I realized that the way i approached architecture was with a somewhat fashion brain. that didn't get me very good marks in school, because everyone thought fashion was lightweight. in architecture they say, "well, why is the door pink? where does it go? what does the pink mean? what does it symbolize? all the other doors are beige, why is that one pink?" i was like, "well, it's pink because it's pretty."
Fashion School Mean
Someone trying to be funny probably isn't as funny as someone who doesn't want to be funny but is and can't help it. someone being serious or angry might be funny. if you get angry, the first thing i want to do is laugh because i don't know why you're getting that angry. pathos makes me laugh, funerals make me laugh.
Laughing Funeral Trying
"i've found out why people laugh. they laugh because it hurts so much... because it's the only thing that'll make it stop hurting" ... "but that's not all people laugh at." "isn't it? perhaps i don't grok all its fullness yet. but find me something that really makes you laugh sweetheart... a joke, or anything else- but something that gave you a a real belly laugh, not a smile. then we'll see if there isn't a wrongness wasn't there." he thought. "i grok when apes learn to laugh, they'll be people."

I've learned to become a progressive man because i have four women in my life. and their mother, who i'm not married to anymore, but who impresses me because of our relationship. because we have a very deep and friendly relationship that is completely about who we really are now. before it was husband, wife, mother, father. but now it's about who we are as human beings. because we didn't give up on each other. and because we didn't hurt each other and blister each other from a divorce. we became tight. best friends. and more than that even, because now we're best parents.
