Clutch's Comments

Humor is simply the element of surprise. When someone falls down, we laugh because it was not expected and we were shocked. The same goes for a punch line. It is an unexpected surprise.

That is why old jokes aren't funny. You know what punch line is coming. The element of surprise is gone. Comedy albums are lame for the same reason. It's no fun to hear a stand up comic do the same routine over and over.

It will take a hell of a lot more than the artist community and urban faming to revive Detroit to any great extent.

The city's infrastructure is too far gone. It will take billions upon billions to revive Detroit.

Seriously, what can a handful of hipsters accomplish, but create some urban art and draw some attention to the city? I think it's great they're trying, but they don't have the resources to make much of a difference.

Avoid the rumor mongers and back stabbers in the workplace by avoiding to get to know them on a personal level.

Your only friends at work are those you talk to on internet forums, chat rooms, and bulletin boards during work hours.

Do not fraternize with co-workers.

I like this Monkey Sphere theory. It explains why I don't give a rip about the starving peeps in Africa, and I'm tired of feeling guilty like I should care about them, even though there's absolutely nothing I can do to help them. Even sending money is useless. It just doesn't help any. Plus i don't know them so outta site. Outta mind.

I'm a writer for a living. But I write adverts at an ad agency. How come there isn't an advertising copywriter's union? How come we ad writers aren't part of the WGA?

Some ads run for years and yaers, yet the writer doesn't get a residual from it. The actors in the ads do though. Why?
