Being a mom is the hardest yet most rewarding job I have ever had. The day I became a mother I gave up the privilege to sleep when I wanted to, go to the bathroom by myself, and eat without sharing. There are many sacrifices made but there are also rewards you cannot get anywhere else. One of the rewards of being a mom is being the audience to the funny things your kids say and do. Children are funny a good portion of the time including when they use their unique sense of humor, sometimes when they are doing things they shouldn’t, and often when they are not trying. Everyone has their own sense of humor and children are no exception. Watching your children develop theirs can is a great privilege. Recently Luke, my two year old, asked me where my dad was. Before I got a chance to answer Paul, my seven year old, said, “Probably dancing.” My …show more content…
Yesterday sitting in a room full of extended family Luke asked me a question. I was fairly certain I knew what he wanted but did hear his question. I looked at him and said, “I didn’t hear what you said. You need to talk louder.” To which Luke replied, “Huh?” So I repeated myself. Again Luke’s response was the same. Having heard me repeat myself twice Luke’s oldest brother loudly said, “She said she didn’t hear you, you have to talk louder.” We apparently finally got the message across because Luke looked at me with his big blue eyes took a deep breath and yelled “Huh?” just about at the top of his lungs. Every adult in the room burst into laughter. It was one of those moments when your child follows your question exactly but you weren’t specific enough and all you can do is laugh. The struggles of being a mom are definitely some of the most challenging. However witnessing the comical things that come with this very demanding job make it worth the hard work. Though being a mom is full of frustration, in the end, it is worth the
Robin Williams was bullied badly during his childhood for being chubby. Therefore he spent a lot of his time playing alone in the family's large home to avoid his tormentors. Eventually, he conquered his overweight label by joining the wrestling and tracks teams. That’s when he realised that he could make the other children laugh as a way of gaining respect from them.
Throughout time, humorists have been able to pull off a phenomenon, which allows for others to laugh about sensitive, stressful topics. With talent, humorists are able to captivate positive emotion from their audience and allow for society to see delicate issues in an unbiased view. Although humorists are commonly seen as people who only intend to entertain, humorists purposefully say things through their work that allow for hard issues to be spoken or illustrated.
Mothers are typically seen as kind, loving, and nurturing, at least in a perfect world, that’s how they are. Rather, in the real world many of us wish that is how all mothers are. Various situations can lead to a woman to be too mothering. It is a factor that transcends real life. This conflict causing dynamic is very prevalent in numerous stories, films, and plays. Two plays where it is shown in significance are Machinal and The Glass Menagerie. In both cases, the actions taken by the mother roles in the shows, resulted in some of the character’s roles ending in unfortunate events of some sort.
They think that church choirs are funny because they go to church and they could not be part of the choir because they cannot hear, so they dressed up as Mary, Joseph, and the wisemen. They think that poetry is funny because they think it is just random words that do not make much sense (I agree). They also think that its funny that some hearing people will sing into a broom as a pretend microphone.
Humor is the art of turning something serious, and sometimes even heartbreaking into something that makes people laugh until they can’t breathe. As well as being incredibly entertaining, the skill of making something funny can be used to change the world. In his book Status Anxiety, Alain de Botton correctly argues that the role of humorists as messengers of taboo or restricted topics is vital to society. When presented with a serious topic, many people shy away out of fear of being offensive, but humorists revel in the idea of not only talking about that offensive subject but making jokes about it as well. But why do they get away with it?
Humor is viewed by some people as an important part of life. Most people enjoy amusement, and some turn to humorists as a source for that amusement. Some further view humorists as holding an important position in society because society allows humorists to say things that others can and will not say. Due to their unique position in society, humorists serve a role that is certainly unique and can be important, but not vital. Furthermore, humor can very well have a dangerous side, whether intentional or unintentional, so humorists should try to be careful with their powerful position.
The once in a lifetime celebration of a baby’s laugh is determine by their wellbeing and identity of their character as they become an adult. I was told this as a lesson by my grandmother who once said it was our cultural gathering with family and friends. Later, there was a newborn baby in our family named Erin who had dark brown hair, light brown eyes, and was always fidgety due to all her nieces, cousins, and sisters because they play, tickle, and made those silly embarrassing faces that even adults make themselves that brought out their childish side. Although Erin Rose was the center of attention she had a smile on her face all the time that gave everybody that sense of happiness and excitement that a teeny tiny baby could bring.
Everyone has humor inside of them and is a reason why there is always something to laugh at. When it comes down to what people do or the way they behave. It was very funny when Dr. Bettes ordered some tests for Spencer and expected back the results the same day. Spencer has congestion in his lungs which causes him to barely breathe. Usually, it takes a few days to get results back from a lab, but it was very funny how the doctor wanted results back on the same day because it takes time for the results to process. Humans always have something to laugh at. In this movie, the main character is Melvin
How can I bring myself to laugh at his moment? Maybe it’s because she’s lacking the intelligence that I know she has? I don’t even know. I mean, come on. She was the best student throughout school. She always has straight A’s. It’s
Instead of aggressive humor at other’s expense, men are more drawn to affiliative humor that brings people together through funny & awkward situations.
They find humor in these situations, which I believe more people need to have. With mom shaming being such a large focus in the media right now, it's refreshing to see the comedic approach Punchline has taken with this web
It’s pretty funny to see a person consciously or subconsciously ransack social norms and make a fool of himself. Like beauty, humor is also in the eye of the beholder; It is art, not science; It is full of contradictions, however, analyzing it too much will make
As Karith Foster states, humor does more that just tell jokes. The jokes go deeper and “works.. beneath the surface” (Foster). These jokes have a reason for not being well accepted; they are issues, problems and obstacles within the society that need to be fixed. These issues need to be solved but not talking about them is not the way. By using humor as a way of talking about these issues, “someone is addressing, rather than shying away from, one of these taboo issues” (Foster).
I am funny, I have been told I was funny when I was trying, and not trying. I am funny and know what to say. I can usually come up with jokes on the spot, but sometimes I will need to get inspiration from TV shows or websites. When my friends are down and sad, I will try to cheer them up with jokes, sometimes it won't work, but at least I try. Joking with friends is funny because they can come up with funny things and give me inspiration. Being funny is something that takes years to learn and master, or you are born with it. I was born with the gift of being funny, when some people try to be funny, they can come off mean or not be funny at all. I have a good since of humor, I will laugh at most things even if there is only just a slight hint of comedy in there. If the people I am talking to don't want to laugh, I will still try my hardest to make them smile.
It is 2 am, only halfway through my shift, and I might not be able to keep my eyes open much longer: it's as if someone has hung lead weights on each of my eyelids. That is when my work mom shows up and saves the day with a big cup of steaming coffee. For the past six years I have worked the night shift at a nearby hospital as a telemetry technician. Working on the same unit, laboring through the same twelve-hour night shift, and toiling through the same tasks over and over can oftentimes be a grind. While some nights are slow and seem like they never end, other nights feel as tense as a guitar string. Things can get hectic. Whether its dealing with an irate family member or even trying to save a patient's life; sometimes work can feel like
