A genuinely nice question for my genuinely nice friends [Discord Post]

[tuesday_morning]

A genuinely nice question for my genuinely nice friends! (Psst, that's all of you in here.)

 

> What are some things that make you smile? They can be items, activities, people, etc.

 

Follow up question!

 

> What makes you laugh? And I mean really laugh?

 

 

I'll go first since I began the prompt. Feel free to reply on this post with your own joys so we can share 

 

Things that make me smile include:

- Hanging out with my awesome brother (online or in-person)
 

- Singing what's on my heart and hitting the notes nicely

- Seeing cute art or clothes and imagining what I'd like to wear

- Daydreaming about who I want to be and what I want to do with my life

- Having deep thoughts that remind me of how precious life is

- Getting random bursts of joy that make me giggle and smile at nothing in particular

- Accomplishing something or resolving to set a new routine for myself.

- Actually following through with new routines, when possible!


Things that make me laugh include:
 

- Chaotic comedy skits, videos, movies or shows

- Talking to my brother

- TikTok videos

- Fictional characters that I perceive to be attractive (Don't judge too hard please. >.>")

- Someone actually putting in the efforts to be my friend

Your turn if anyone wants to add their own thoughts.  owo

I don't have a favorite comedian, but I enjoy watching funny videos. I've seen a few with Tim Hawkins, and random people on Comedy Central at a time. George Carlin can be pretty funny!

That's valid too! In any case, I think comedy really is such a valuable art form that I wish people wouldn't take for granted so often. What I mean by that is that when you put some effort into comedy, you can get some really good stuff! But when it feels like everyone only ever goes for the bottom of the barrel, it's not as good as it could be.

I agree. Not everything is funny and there really is an art and understanding to it. Definitely need to captivate the audience, not steer them away.
