Ethical Comedy

There is an ethical way to do anything. Comedy is no exception. Sadly, comedy is a case of extremes, to do anything other than an extreme would be hypocritical.

It is simply this: either everything is sacred, or nothing is sacred. Those are the only ethical ways to do comedy. It simply that you must treat all subjects equally, be the person, place, idea, etc. Thus, either everything is open to being the subject of a joke, or nothing is. 

A great many people want to tell that there exist subjects that should never be joked about. What these subjects are vary from person to person. Usually the subject that want treated as sacred is based in some great personal pain, but why should anyone's pain be treated as special?

We all have pain, none of it special. So to me, nothing is sacred.

Opinions that seems to piss people off.

These are just somethings that I have said at various times that seems to really get people going. These are all honest opinions. None of them alone really deserve a blog all about them. Enjoy.

1. "Inception" was an average heist movie with some fancy dressing around it. Not a bad movie, just not a great one either.

2. If you don't question what you are told, you are already dead.

3. Morality is just a very large gray area.

4. "Final Fantasy 7" is a weak entry in the series.

5. "Citizen Kane" is overrated. Don't get me wrong, it is a great film. However, it is not the greatest ever made.

6. We do to much to protect the stupid.

That is enough for now. There is a lot more. Sorry for the light post.
