    Humorous Life Lessons And The Emotional Response

    By Sarah Price


    Before an individual, or comedian can decide what is funny in life, humor must first be defined. To paraphrase, humor is any action or activity in life which produces or provokes laughter. In addition, experiences which provide amusement are also thought to be of a humorous variety. For example, while embarrassing at times, someone losing a top or swimsuit while sliding down a slide at a water park often induces laughter. As such, personal experiences like this and others are often the area in which most humorous life lessons are learned.

    When it comes to comedies and sit-coms such as Madhouse, RV and others, individuals can often learn some invaluable lessons. For example, before heading out on a road trip, it might be feasible to assure an RV is in proper working condition. Whereas, when putting up Christmas lights, it is always best to check the strand and electrical outlets before hanging in, on or around a house. Still, when watching these movies the audience is prone to laughter, thus inducing an emotional response.

    Whether creating, or laughing at inappropriate material, an individual is often considered to be discriminatory, often without realizing same. As such, it is also important for audience members to step up and let others know when this type situation exists. Whether that means, approaching a comedian at the end of a gig, explaining to others why a joke is offensive, or writing a film or television studio as to why a show created a negative response.

    In most cases, individuals lacking a sense of humor are not always offended. Sometimes, it is just that the individual does not grasp or understand the meaning behind a joke or punchline. As such, reception and response in this regard is often based on personal knowledge or taste. As such, many comedians will test material by reciting it to friends, relatives and others before performing in front of an audience.

    The best jokes are often those based on personal experience rather than attacking others. For example, baldness has often been the punchline of many jokes when it comes to comedians. While offensive, this trend tends to continue because no one has spoken up. In addition, there are many other areas in which a comedian can draw material beyond having to personally attack audience members.

    Television, sports, radio, location, culture, maturity, education, intelligence and context can all contribute to humor. There can also be theater productions, television shows and movies in which humorous material is involved though not at the forefront. For example, genres such as drama, horror and mystery might include humor though the main attempt is to create a different emotional response from the audience.

    Like with other forms of entertainment, it is always good when telling a joke or story that audiences be age appropriate. Otherwise, the joke or story could be retold at school or church without a child understanding the overall impact. Whereas, adults often enjoy more advanced and satirical forms of humor like those performed on stage by comedians or found in a number of television sit-coms.

    Most people believe humor to be either basic human nature or a gift from the Divine. Whereas, others believe it to be a sense of joy which has no explanation. Regardless, as laughter has now proven to have an overall healing effect on body, mind and spirit, telling a good joke or explaining a humorous personal experience is often a good thing.
