Several weeks ago at StuCo I made a funny that made an audience of about 40 people all laugh. It was people of all demographics as well. I especially hit the very coveted 18-35 group. I allowed myself to be pretty proud of myself. The funny was 5 words of well timed perfection.
Of course there was a hater in the house. It wasn't enough to make 4o people laugh. The hater in this case frowned and said 'they didn't laugh hard enough.' That's right I have brought comedy to such epic levels that it's not enough to make large groups laugh. I am being judged on the level of laughter.
Last weekend I was at a movie theater with about 50 or so people watching a cinematic adventure. The film went out about three-quarters of the way through the movie. I once again busted out another perfectly timed 5 word funny. The entire theater laughed. The hater in this case said she wasn't impressed because the laughter was only a 'low rumble' through the theater.
Making 90 people laugh with 10 words brought out the haters. This is now the burden I bare. It's a tough but I will continue to bring the funny.
