Frequently Asked Questions

What's this collection's overall take on jokes?
It's mostly about the craft and experience of joking, from happily owning being "a ham" who likes "to joke around," to more self-aware reflections on how jokes actually land.
Does any quote talk about how a joke is delivered?
Yes - one quote describes a deliberate technique for softening criticism: "I try to massage it a little and not be as cutting, come behind it with a joke," following a hard truth with humor.
Is there a quote about gender differences in comedy?
Yes, one speaker observes a double standard they experienced firsthand: "A woman would pitch a joke. Nothing. Then a guy would pitch it and everybody would laugh," presented as their own personal observation.
Is there a quote about not understanding your own comedic effect?
Yes - one speaker admits, "I do things, and other people laugh at them. I rarely know what the joke is supposed to be or why they're laughing," a candid, self-deprecating take on being funny by accident.
