         <description><![CDATA[<div>I think there are all kinds of comedians. Some are the kind of high-energy, life of the party types, but others (and in my opinion, the best ones) are of a darker cloth. Sharp observation and insight are the building blocks of great comedy. Boisterous people who are always jockeying for a laugh often aren't the contemplative analytical types whose brooding begets hilarity.&nbsp;<br><br>I don't think the advice of the adults at the camp was particularly good, especially the, "It's more important to be funny than liked," bit. The job of a comedian is to be funny, period. I do not like the character Daniel Tosh inhabits while on stage. He's a jerk. A brilliant, hilarious jerk. Also, it was painful watching an adult (an adult who comes off as very unfunny, btw) tell a kid (a kid who comes off as unpopular, btw) that he needs to be more likeable. Birbiglia jokes that when people don't like your comedy, they're essentially saying they don't like you ("You know, your personality!"). That lady straight up tells that kid that she and we don't like you!!!</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<ul><li>The advice that the adults offered was good because it showed you two sides of humor and how people decided and had the choice of reacting. One of the adults that gave advice said " It's better to be liked than be funny." I personally think there's some right and some wrong to that. I believe that yes overall we are comfortable with the overall thought of being liked. But there's an extent to that because you can be funny and still be hated but, you can also be liked and just being funny in general is a plus to that.&nbsp;</li><li>I truly don't believe that all comedians are happy go lucky or generally goofy all the time. Although their humor could suggest that they are always jokers, that may not be the case. Personally I think that some comedians are the way they are because they've been through a traumatic experience or rather a "cover up" to use their humor in a way to take their mind off a stressful time to get the chance to turn it into something humorous. I don't think comedians have a happy go lucky life all the time and I believe they use comedy to express how they feel sometimes to make it a lighter subject or thought.</li></ul><div><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>The advice the adults offered to the children comics was understandable, but terribly wrong I understand that she thought that it was better to be liked, but it shouldn't matter if people like you or not all that should matter is if they are laughing. because as long as you make them laugh you'll never have to worry about people liking you.</div><div>Most comedians aren't actually very happy people, most of them actually use their comedy as a way to hide that they aren't enjoying life. most comedians have a dark sense of humor that covers the fact that they too have had rough lives. I myself included think that most comedians actually tend to be sad clowns using comedy to hide a more serious trauma and as well make themselves appear to be merrymakers. </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>No, Because she was saying that it's better to be likable than funny, when they are being funny to be likable. Some people come from a dark place. They use comedy to kinda hide it and to bring out another part in themselves. I'm not saying all comedians have that kind a of history. Some comedians have a fun past and an exciting one and that's how they get there jokes. </div><div>	Me growing up as a kid, I was neither bullied or did I have an exciting past. I was just a normal kid growing up with no major events happening. So me, with my past, I don't have very much information to go off of to make funny jokes and be exciting. Kids with sad past lives can take a joke out of it and make it funny, and people with a lot of exciting stuff happening they have a lot to go off of, a lot of stories to make jokes out of. </div><div><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>I majorly disagreed with what the woman said to the long dark brown haired kid, She said: "It's better to be liked than to be funny."  Which is sorta true but when she said that kids aren't funny when they talk about 18+ content. Which seems the opposite is true. I think the advice the woman gave was off. After watching the documentary I think humor is linked with a dark past for the masses of stand up comedians. When I say dark passed I'm thinking maybe bullying or being made fun of from the masses. So I would have to go with Sad Clowns.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>I think their advice wasn't very good. Mainly because i think that most people use sarcasm as a defense mechanism. That they use comedy just to fit in because they don't know how else too. They've tried everything else and that's basically their last resort. So when that lady said that when you get up on the stage its so you can be likable not funny. it kinda goes against what they've been doing just to fit in. They think they need to be funny to be likable.</div><div>Not all comedians are happy-go-lucky. Some can be dark and disturbing but somehow are able to make people laugh. No one is happy all the time so I don't think you can make a blanket statement saying they're happy all the time. Some may come from a bright place(Their humor) but for others its an escape. For them it comes from a dark place. from being bullied and being messed with constantly. That sadness and anger can manifest to trying to make everyone laugh and they think that if I can make people laugh maybe just maybe the'll like me more  </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>I think the advise the person gave the kids is wrong. i think this because what she said to a comedian is not right cause they went there to be funny but she said don't be funny be likeable like what kind of advice is that.i think that the advise they gave the kids i not a good advice.</div><div>One kid became a comedian because when he was younger he was bullied and then he just became a comedian. i think when or if he even got advice from those people, he probably thought that they were teasing him. The advice they gave the kids is not a good advice cause they are some moments that kids say adult things and its funny. overall i think that the advice the people gave the kids is false i disagree i think they are funny just depends how they tell the joke with a little bit of acting.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<ul><li>I think the advice that the adults gave was some of it was true but on the other hand some of it was very untrue. I think for instance when little kids act like adults that is so hilarious because the impression that the little kid does on the adult could go so bad and usually when things go wrong that is funny. I know that being funny can just be your personality but when I am funny I am not trying to be liked its just my way of showing me. </li><li>I know for a fact that every comedian is not  happy comedian. I know and watch some actors that do comedy on hard things that they have went through like when people die and if they were really close to you then that could be a way that you cope with that making memories of there time by going back through them. I also think that when people do humor it could be a bad place they were in there life like bullies, hard life at home and even divorces. That is just some peoples way of being funny. </li></ul><div><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>The advice that the woman offered to those young boys was to be likeable, friendly, warm, and inviting. Not to say adult things because they’re kids and it’s not funny. I completely one-hundred percent disagree with everything she said. I think it is terrible advice and she just ruined those boys’ senses of humor. I think anyone <em>can</em> be funny. In fact, I find people that joke about darker, heavier topics to be funnier than people that joke about lighter topics. I also find it hilarious when kids joke about adult things if it’s well crafted. I honestly think that woman was not qualified to be teaching those kids how to be funny.&nbsp;</div><div>To spin off of what I stated in my previous paragraph, people that joke about dark, heavy things that are not at all funny on their own are some of my favorite comedians. I don’t think there are any comedians in the world that don’t have a mental illness. I think that humor is a coping mechanism and that people are truly funny when they are trying to cope. I myself use humor to cope with my everyday life and yesterday even, I had some news that is not only heartbreaking but truly terrifying and I can’t think of any way for me to work with this issue than joking about it. Comedians are definitely more like sad clowns than merrymakers.&nbsp;<br><br></div><div><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>       The woman from the documentary gave the advice that it is better to be likable than to be funny. She also gave the advice that it is not funny when kids do adult things. I believe that both of these statements are untrue. I find it hilarious when kids do adult things. For example, let's compare two people. An adult and a child. There's an adult in a grocery store and they yell at some guy they think is eyeing them. I'm going to find that a little less funny from when the third grader sitting behind me screams "keep your eyes off me ya' ugly perve." I can say safely that she tore my stomach up. I could not stop laughing. But if I hear it from an adult I'm just going to think they're adulting. The other piece of advice the woman gave was 'it is better to be likable than to be funny'. In comedy, I think this is not true. We all have that one person who we can't stand but there's no denying they are hilarious. Like a class clown in high school or Katt Williams after he fought a teenager. Sure people didn't like him, but they didn't all of a sudden think he wasn't funny after it. I think her advice wasn't good at all. I thought it was untrue but, those are just my opinions. </div><div> </div><div> </div><div>           There are many comedians who use dark humor. They may not be the happiest but they are still funny. Not all comedians jokes come from a day where the sun was shining down. Some jokes come from death, like Kevin Hart's bit on him carrying his mother's casket at a funeral. Or some just come from angering situations. Like Katt Williams bit on the man with no legs who won a race against people, with legs I mind you because he had an 'Unfair advantage.' It wasn't a good situation. But it was funny to hear him talk about. </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>The advice that was offered by adults at Comedy Camp was absolutely horrible. First of all, I highly disagree with "it's not funny when kids do adult things". That's solely an opinion that shouldn't be taught as fact. Some kids might go down a different path in life with this false information. Also, I don't personally believe being more likeable than funny is better in comedy. In some job fields being liked might get you further in life but as for a comedian, being funny is their job. It's what people come to see them for.&nbsp;</div><div>Not all comedians are happy go-lucky jokers. It all depends on what kind of humor they choose to use. Some comedians base their material off sadder things in life. Comedy is also like a defense mechanism for others. It's how they cope with the world around them and how they block out the negative things in life. Comedians are all different. Some could be like sad clowns that find humor within their own expense or it could be someone that non-stop tells jokes for hours.&nbsp;</div>]]></description>

         <title>Advice, Not Precept</title>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>I understand that the blonde woman who told the kids “It is better to be liked than to be funny” had good intentions.  However, I think she is missing the boat.  First, humor is a form of acceptance.  Even when you aren’t the source of the humor, when we laugh together, we feel accepted and a part of something bigger than ourselves.  Second, I think some of the kids at the camp, and kids in general, were there because they didn’t feel liked within their peer group and were looking for a way to fit in or be accepted.  Her advice is bad.  It doesn’t fit everyone and she made the statement like it was a precept to be followed by all cultures and people.  </div><div><br></div><div>People come with baggage and comedy is a coping mechanism, a form of therapy.  Comics, being people, are no different.  So naturally, there are those comedians who are funny because of and, possibly in spite of, the dark places they have been. Whether you use your past as material is up to you, the comic.  All of our experiences are valid, so whether you are a merry maker or sad clown, it doesn’t matter.  </div><div><br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>I believe some of the advice the adults gave weren't that great. One thing that is noted is they said kids shouldn't make adult jokes. I believe they can make adult jokes. They also said comedians should be liked and not just funny. I think this is incorrect because comedians should always be funny. They dont always have to liked because that shouldnt matter I guess.</div><div><br></div><div>Comedians are not always happy, sometimes they can be really upset and not show it. Sometimes their jokes come from their unhappiness, thats where they find their inspiration. Some of their humor comes from a darker place because not all comedians are always happy. Comedians are more sad clowns than anything.</div><div><br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>I mean they are a little bit right, but not really. I think if the kid has a good grown up joke and cand say it good and it fits then yess I say we can tell one.&nbsp; Well you can't really get the crowd to like you if your not funny. You want them to love you because your funny not because they like being around you. You have to be your own person not what other people want you to be.&nbsp; No not all comedians are always happy they have troubled days just like the rest of us. They even get some of there jokes from there sad days.&nbsp; Some kids start out having problems in school getting bullied and made fun of and I think it turns there attention to wanna make people happy and laugh and just really show up there enemies. Yes, comedians have rough days and it makes them seem like sad clowns.&nbsp;<br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>I do not think that the advice that was given was any good because to me to be likeable you have to be funny. I also do adult jokes as a kid. So I think that the advice was not good.</div><div>No some comedians are but npt all cause some of them have been through alot of stuff. Yes there hummor says that they are all good but when you do some reasearch you find out alot of stuff. Some of the inspiration comes from a dark place but not all some comes from the high and lifted up. No comedians are funny people that like making people funny.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>The advice they gave the kids were not very helpful.For me I would tell those kids to be themselve and however they wanna be on stage.The advice they said "Try to be liked then to be funny" I really do not agree to it mainly because if you wanna be a stand up comedian its really better if you are funny because then you will entertain everybody instead of the ones who only like you.My advice is have a nice and wonderful sense of humor you everyone and also add in a little of funniest and your set to be a comedian.All comedian have a nice and funny and energetic sense of humor which drives all and everyone to come and hear them speak.These famous comedian all have a funny sense of humor and funny jokes.<br><br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>The advice the adult was giving the kids wasn't good at all, because she said that kids can't be telling adult jokes and that it's better to be likeable than to be funny. But honestly that don't make sense because all jokes are funny and it shouldn't matter what age you are to tell a joke. Then how the adult said its best to be likeable than to be funny but that don't make sense because how you gonna like someone and not think their funny.&nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>Not all comedians are happy-go-lucky jokers, most comedians are in a dark place and just don't know how to get out of it. and most of them joke about their childhood and how it was rough and everything. Not all comedians are cheery people but it depends on which comedian you watch there are some who will joke and have a dark side and you might not be interested in and most might have that cheery side that you enjoy and find it really funny.&nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>I do not think that the advice that the adults at the comedy camp was good at all. The lady there told the boy that it is not funny for children to talk about adult subjects. She had also told him that it is better to be likeable than to be funny. I think that it can be funny when younger people joke about adult things, sometimes. It really just depends on what you're saying and who you are saying it to. I also think that sometimes it's hard to feel like you fit in and that you're liked so you turn to comedy as a way of feeling normal. So people may think that they need to be funny to be likeable. </div><div>I do not believe that comedians are just happy go lucky rays of sunshine. I personally joke when I'm embarrassed, hurt, or scared. I have a messed up family and home life, and I use jokes to cope. I know I'm not the only one who does that. I also think that people who have been treated poorly joke so that they can feel liked. I joke about my parents to make up for missing them. </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>There are definitely a variety of types of humor. Personally, I like darker humor. The advice that the adults gave the children wasn't good advice. The woman with blonde hair stated "It's better to be liked than to be funny."</div><div>Honestly, I think that in order to be liked, you must be funny.  A boy that performed his jokes, seemed to be "unpopular" or very coyish, was told by the lady in blonde hair, that adult jokes performed by children are not funny and he needs to be more likeable. Which, I disagree. </div><div>Humorous jokes can also be a result of coping with something personal. </div><div>If it's well portrayed, I think it is acceptable for children to tell adult jokes, in my opinion.</div><div>Recognizing an audience, especially if it's an audience of thousands of people, discrepantly I believe that trying to avoid offensive jokes is merely impossible. Anybody can be offended by anything. </div><div>However, performing a joke showing a critical or disrespectful manner to a specific character, would than be derogatorily offending a person. Which is socially not accepted. </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>I think that the advise the adults gave to the kids was heartless and inconsiderate. Though the advice may be true for some people I do not think that it applied to this group especially since they were just kid. She told this advice to a bunch of kids that had been through a hard time and been pushed around by people that either thought they were better than them or just wanted to take out their pain on others so they could have someone to relate to. She told them that instead of being themselves that they should just try to appease the audience. This advice is the worst advice that anyone could give to a kid in their shoes. I don't think that this was meant to hurt anyone but if those kids take that advice to heart, then it could potentially screw their head up. This is why because behind that advice there is a verry hard truth to learn, the world is a cold and dark place and kids are the only ones that have the potential change that. And the moment that people start teaching kids this, that potential change has the potential to disappear, these kids started doing comedy because it gives them hope and helps them cope with harshness of reality. They are trying to be happy and she basically just said that their not allowed to do that.</div><div><br><br></div><div>	I do not think that all comedians are happy go lucky jokesters a lot of them are just let off steam in a constructive way. I think that a lot of comedians go through hard times and comedy is how they deal with these hard times and this is also make themselves happy again. I think they find their inspiration  by looking back at their own hard time and taking an even larger step back by looking at problems in the world. I think that they can joke about these things because they realize that dwelling over it is not going to help any one so they joke about it instead.</div><div><br><br><br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div><br>i think in general a sad person could have the best personalities and some of the things they say dont even need to be funny just knowing the person and at least some things they went through it will just make you laugh in joy to see that they made it through everything and are still in your life making you happy.Its weirdly funny and hard to explain i think its a rather you get it or you dont kind of thing for example i have been through 🤬 and back and i still entertain myself with little jokes that get me through the day or if i see something bad go down ill be like well thats the 🤬 im glad its not me and ill laugh a little not because i don't respect the person but i laugh at the conflict that happened. im not really sure based of their humor if they are doing well in their soul but they are definitely doing something they like    <br><br></div><div><br> <br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>I think that the advice given by the adults in the video was harsh, and even necessary. I think that you can joke about anything, no matter your age. I dont agree with the woman who said that it is better to be likeable than funny, because usually if your funny, your likeable. I dont think that all comedians are all happy go lucky jokers either. Some comedians dont get their inspiration from being in a cheery mood all of the time. I do believe that their are a lot of comedians out there who get their inspiration from a darker/ gloomier place or time in there lives. Comediens can make bad experiences into a funny topic for stand up comedy. For example, people grow up with a bad parent or parents or just in a bad environment, you can make that into a funny situation, it may even be easier for you to cope with if you make it into a funny situation. </div><div>I think that comedians are a combination of both sad clowns and merry ones. Comedians are normal people who experience all emotions just like us. Therefor I believe that comedians use their emotion and every day lifestyle in their acts, so they can definitely be both sad and merry clowns. </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>No i do not think that all comedians are happy go lucky jokester .  because on the no respect video .. the amateurs comedians say they had a kinda rough childhood ... like one kid said he was bullied  .  and other said that people like just rejects him and don't talk to him. and for question number 2 . i also think now . because the professional comedian had a subject based around a bad time. which was pretty funny i think.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>The advice that the adults gave the kids at comedy camp was not good advice. She said "It's better to be liked than funny" however as a comedian your goal is to make people laugh. Whether or not your audience likes you as a person does not really make or break the success of the performance. Yes, some comedians use descriptions of personal life in an attempt to connect to the audience and be even funnier but the "connection" is not necessary.</div><div>Not all comedians are happy people deep down. I actually feel like more great comedians are deep inside unhappy. Instead of feeling like jokesters, these comedians are more like sad clowns who show their excitement when the audience laughs. They portray a happy person up on stage to achieve their goal but inside many comedians have conflict, dark times, or an embarrassing past that they turn into hilarious stories and a number of other jokes.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>The advice that the adults gave them was not good only because you don't have to be funny to be likeable and also you can joke about anything as long as you joke about it around current people. If you pay attention most of the comedians have bad past and they just turn their past into funny jokes. Most of the comedians have really dark humor, so they aren't all in good moods but not all of the comedians have dark humor. People have bad experiences and they express it to people as jokes. People make those things into jokes just to cope with it. </div><div>In the first paragraph I mentioned how you don't have to be funny just to be "likeable". It's the same situation as "you don't have to wear expensive clothing just to fit in". There was a kid on the video that joked about "adult jokes" and the adults didn't think it was funny. In my opinion I think kids can do adult jokes as long as it's not to inappropriate. There some things now and days that people say about adults and they aren't even inappropriate some adults just don't have any sense of humor sometimes.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>I disagreed with the woman . Because she told a kid its better to be liked then be funny. But when she said it's bad for kids to talk about adult jokes that's what made me mad <br>I thank everyone can tell jokes about anything or every if they want. So that's why I thank she is a mean woman.</div>]]></description>
