humor
I think it's a safe thing to say that I can't write funny stuff. I like to believe I like witty humor. But I've realized the kind of humor that gets me on the floor laughing are slapstick a la Dumb and Dumber or making fun of others (in a non-threatening way of course, i hope). of the many Simpsons episodes I've seen, one scene that sticks out is the one where Homer can't stop laughing about the film about a man who gets hit in the jewels with a football. twisted as that may be, i still find it ridiculously funny. in our building blocks praise night skit, there's a scene in which CJ is supposed to get hit in the head with a ball. as we were filming the scene, no one thought that the person who threw the ball would throw as hard as he did. CJ got plunked in the face with a ball thrown with all of a man's might, and he fell down without having to act. and i couldn't stop laughing. as i was editing the video, i was laughing so much that i thought i could empathize with women giving birth (not really, but it was painful).
but the ironic thing is, i hate johnny knoxville and jackass stuff. in some ways what johnny knoxville does is like CJ getting nailed in the face or the man who gets hit with a football in the gonads (is that too vulgar?). but something about jackass and that type of show repulses me. do i have schizophrenia? am i selective in my choice of humor at the expense of others' health? i dunno. in the meanwhile, i'm gonna enjoy editing the building blocks praise night video while many of you are on spring break. i get to see CJ get hit in the face over and over again (ahahahaha...sorry bro. ftg, no? hahahaha).

on another note, have you guys seen this t-shirt? it's quite possibly one of the most ridiculous things i've seen. it's made by a christian clothing company and it basically rips on Brokeback Mountain. i dunno whether to laugh or not. what would happen if someone wore this shirt on campus? hmmm...causes you to wonder, no?
alright, have a great break for you students.

aww... CJ!
on laughing at unfortunate events:
i think it's only a certain generation in the western world that finds bodily injury funny. (having grown up on 'america's funniest home videos' perhaps). i still laugh at clips of people walking into glass doors, even though i've done it before. sometimes the glass is just TOO clean.
schizophrenia = too much dopamine, sometimes there's depression, or senses (hearing, seeing, smelling) of things that aren't really there, contrary to the misconception that it's the same thing as multiple personalities...sorry, just gotta throw that out there.
possibly the "voices" that people can hear when they have schizo. so, makes 'em seem like they have multiple-personality when they respond to these...
