is rape off limitts for laughs
I don't think anything is off limits for laughs; great comedy comes from pain.
I myself am a victim of a serial rapist who kidnapped and detained me. The story is even more insane from there....when the rapist SUED ME IN CIVIL COURT FOR DEFAMATION OF CHARACTER AND LOSS OF INCOME AFTER HE HAD BEEN CONVICTED! hahaha.
When I started thinking about this I "wrote" a sketch in my head regarding my experience that was pretty funny.
See, I grew up in the fifties. Nothing was talked about. Nothing.
I long for the sixties. Those were interesting times.
People are very depressed and subdued these days. The only rights we did not sign away in the Patriot Act I hear is the right to quarter soldiers....although if any of these soldiers looked like Brat Pitt in that Troy movie I would not mind quartering them.
If you can't laugh, you can't examine the pain. It festers.
Like one of my editors who was a quadraplegic facing the elevator during a fire reading the sign that says...."during a fire, use the stairs." hahahahaha.
geeegee
