Document Summary
Avoiding humiliation is the core of tragedy and comedy. Humiliation is one element that can be used to create comedy. Comedy can also come from other emotions, like happiness, or anger, or sadness. It can come from the absurd or ridiculous, the reality of existence, something unexpected, something familiar, something unfamiliar, the news, the universe, a personal story, etc. So in my dorm there are three guys that are like drinking beer like everyday, and i am quite sure that i signed up to live with non-alcoholic people. So as a curious person, i am of age up here in canada, being 19. So i was like i"m gonna steal one of their beers and try it. And i opened up a can and took a sip, and i was like waitthis doesn"t really taste as bad as i thought.
