A lot of comedians, when they have a bad gig, will blame everything but themselves. They'll blame the crowd, or the room was wrong, it had a weird vibe, or the promoter promoted a weird atmosphere.
Allan Carr
Sometimes I feel as if we’re in this
huge battle of civilizations. All clamouring for attention. Each one trying to
establish that it is the finest no matter the cost. The Orients and Asians
scream in defiance to Western Civilization while the so called Westerners
cunningly try to dominate the world. And the Middle East is not so much as bothered;
it prefers to stay behind the walls of its own traditions and principles…
Why do we have to live in such a
tumultuous world where egos and our carnal and animalistic tendencies are given
free range? A simple example, the TRPs of crime shows have gone so high up its
a little disconcerting. And there are way too many to choose from forensics to
the more perverse psychological thriller. The media feeds on negativity.be it
crime shows, soap operas or reality TV…all scream negativity. In soap operas
the mother in law always harasses the daughter in law, in reality TV there has
to be a lot of flaring up cussing and fighting. And I wonder why we can’t
behave as normal, sensible, responsible and mature human beings. Why do we have
to always have to disagree? We HAVE to disagree about each other’s views, needs,
religions, opinions and all the numerous little things…I could just go on and
on about them. The point I feel is not much in disagreeing rather than the game
of upmanship where a particular individual or group wants to establish their
dominance over the minority. We love getting our egos stroked but I wonder why
be so primeval about it…so beastly. We always scream out at the top of the
lungs that we’re better than animals but then again why should we behave like
them? I mean can’t we act more like actual human beings rather than a lack of
animals with no sense and just accept each other?
