Portal:Comedy
Comedy is a communication system for people to make other people realize how stupid some things are. Be they stupid people, places or things. Comedy is usually expressed by Comedians which may be Canadians, individuals, teams or troupes. Animators and illustrators may also qualify as comedians, as their product serves the same purpose. Certainly, Propaganda, pornography and laundry detergent advertisements may be funny, and serve as de facto comedy, but they are not officially comedy.
Internet comedy, called Lulz, was initially just about cats and a few other cute animals. It was introduced in the 1950s, with dogs introduced within a year, after much demand in the UK. It also used the terrestrial internet through ground-based modems. Later, high speed via overhead and/or underground wiring and then 3G were introduced. More recently in the 21st century, lulz has increasingly moved from analog to digital technology. (See more...)
Sir Alfred E. Neuman, OAE is both founder and pundit-numero uno of the absurdist political publication, Mad Magazine. Since Mad's inception it is famously ridiculed for containing non compos mentis maxims of great wit and lunacy attributed to Alfred, often referred to by the magazine as "Mad's maddest cartoon". Alfred's credo of "What, me worry?" has both dumbfounded and confounded the lives of his fellow earthlings for decades. But, the mirth be known and laid aside, Alfred's Mad identity is simply an elaborate ruse to conceal his international secret. Not that anyone would believe it, but Alfred E. Neuman is the real power behind the office of U.S. President, regardless of what decoy appears to win the elections.
Ontologically, Neuman is the principle demiurge and Grand Joker of the Illuminati: an all-powerful cabal which controls, among most other things, the Federal Reserve Board's printing press. He is considered the most influential person in recent history by nutters Pee Wee Herman, George Carlin, Carol Burnett, the pioneering staffs of the National Lampoon and Saturday Night Live, Robin Williams, and Frank Zappa.
Christopher "Chris" Rock III (born February 7, 1965) is a self-ascribed African-American comedian, African-American actor, African-American screenwriter, African-American television producer, African-American film producer, and African-American director. He was voted as the fifth greatest African-American stand-up comedian of all time by Comedy Central. His comedic subject matter frequently focuses on the cultural values, habits, and struggles of African-Americans.
Despite the few occasions when he has passingly made mention of his ethnicity, there are still those who speculate that Rock may actually be a racist white person in prosthetic makeup.
Rock began doing stand-up comedy in 1985 in New York City's Catch a Rising Star. His comedic insights and observations on African-American lifestyle saw him rise up the ranks of the comedy circuit, in addition to earning bit roles in the African-American parodying film I'm Gonna Git You Sucka and the semi African-American TV series Miami Vice.
