Do you or have you ever owned a cup with your name on it? >> Actually, I have two. One time there was this dude in Meijer who was doing a promotion for Guinness, and the promo was apparently... giving out custom-engraved pint glasses???? You told him your name and he had this machine that put it on the glass for you. It was weird, especially since it was free... The font that your name is in is a bit wack, though. The other thing I have is a wine glass painted with a nighttime-y scene with skeletal trees and ravens on it. It has my name painted on the stand part, along with the date of my wedding. Sparrow has one too, with her name on it. I’m not even sure where they came from, tbh, but they’re pretty.

What’s the most expensive crafts tool that you own? >> I don’t think I own any expensive crafts tools. The only things I have are, like, pencils, a sketchbook, knitting needles, and yarn.

Have you ever woven baskets of any kind (wicker, paper, cardboard etc.)? >> Maybe as a child.

How do you like Great Balls of Fire by Jerry Lee Lewis? >> It’s all right.

Speaking of Jerry Lee Lewis, have you seen the biopic about him? >> I don’t think so.

How about the biopic about Tina Turner? >> Yeah, I saw that one.

Do you like the TV-show Frasier? >> I do, it’s actually funnier to me now than when I was younger. Back then I thought it was boring but it kills me now.

What’s something you know by heart? >> A lot of song lyrics? Also, the Litany Against Fear.

What is something you’re greedy about? >> I don’t think I’m particularly greedy about anything.

How valuable does a coin have to be for you to bother to pick it up? >> I’d pick up a quarter, maybe. I’m just no longer in the financial position where picking up coins substantially enhances my available funds.

What would be something you would wait in line to get for free? >> It depends on how long the line is, what kind of mood I’m in, and where I am... not just on what the item is. If I’m in a good mood and the line seems manageable, I’d wait in it even if the item is just some random trinket that I have no real use for. If I’m not in a good mood and the line is insane, I wouldn’t wait in it even if it was for an expensive thing I’ve been wanting for ages.

Has there ever been a leak anywhere in your house? >> No.

Have you ever slipped in the shower? >> Not to the point of falling.

Have you ever made any decorative crafts? If so, are they displayed? >> Not in recent memory.

Is it very humid where you are right now? >> Nah.

What is the most suggestive thing someone has said to you? >> *shrug*

Do you have friends who you playfully flirt with? >> No.

Doesn’t the Z in the Bzoink logo look like an L to you, too? >> I mean, not really, but I see where you’re coming from.

Did you ever take that 5000 question survey that was circulating Tumblr? >> Yeah, I took it a long time ago. Once the novelty wore off, I realised that most of the questions were just terrible IMO, which is bound to happen once you endeavour to write a survey with quite that many questions.

Have you ever had to change a zipper in your favourite article of clothing? >> No.

Do you prefer buttons or zippers in general? >> Zippers.

Did you grandma have a box full of pretty buttons? >> ---

What’s the most exotic spice in your spice rack? >> Hmm... garam masala, maybe? We have a wide variety.

Do buttons tempt you to press them? >> Not usually, but sometimes.

Do you have a favourite television host? >> No.

What’s your opinion on celebrity chefs? >> I think some of them are cool and fun to watch. Alton Brown is probably my fave.

Back when it first started, did you watch ANTM? >> I think I’ve seen a season or two. I knew someone who got on it, too (Isis King).

Did you know, that there was even a Finnish version of ANTM? Miss Jay made an appearance in the first season, too. >> No, I didn’t know that, but it makes sense. There are a bunch of those shows modeled after American Idol, too, for different countries.

Are you accident prone? >> No.

Have you ever broken something really valuable? >> I accidentally broke a laptop screen once, and that was pretty damn valuable to me.

What do you see as timeless? >> ---

What is something that you own, that has sentimental value? >> Most of these plushies.

Have you ever had your own website? >> Yeah, I’ve taken stabs at it.

What’s your favourite board game? >> ---

How about your favourite card game? >> ---

What’s something that you finished recently? >> I finished watching Sparrow play through Death Stranding, lol. I’m glad it was her and not me, because I’m pretty sure that game would have made me ragequit within the first few hours, and that would have been a shame.

What’s the smallest town you recall visiting? >> I have no idea.

What’s the longest distance you’ve had to go to work or school? >> ---

Would you learn a new language, if you didn’t share one with your lover? >> Oh, like in Love Actually? I mean, I can’t imagine myself in that situation, but I thought it was cute.

Do you have friends who are constantly tagging you in challenges on FB? >> No. People who have me on facebook should know I prefer to do my actual fun socialising on here or Discord.

When it comes to chocolate, do you prefer nougat, jelly or caramel filling? >> ---

Are you more concerned about winning than just participating? >> No.

Has somebody you know taken their own life? >> No.

What is a number that has some significance to you? Why is that? >> 9. Well, there’s a lot of synchronicity.

Do you prefer onions, leeks or chives? >> I don’t think I have a preference, I’ll take all three. Onions may be the most versatile, though, so maybe those.

What’s the most adult thing you have to do every day? >> I don’t think I have to do any adult thing every day. Maybe feeding myself is an adult thing? Although teenagers and even kids do that too.

What’s the most immature thing you like to do every day? >> ---

Have you seen the movie, Clue? If so, isn’t it fab? >> No, but I’ve seen some funny gifsets that make me think it’d probably be a good time. I might give it a shot if I run into it on a streaming service one day.

Do your cheeks get flushed easily? Do you blush easily in general? >> No, I’ve never felt that feeling.

Are there any social cues you miss entirely? >> Oh, definitely.

When someone doesn’t smile back at you, what’s your first thought? >> They probably didn’t want to, and that’s okay. I don’t always want to smile at everyone who smiles at me, either, and it shouldn’t be a mark against my character just because I don’t smile at a stranger. But, you know, whatever. Any stranger that takes that much offense at me not smiling at them probably wouldn’t get along with me for very long anyway, so it’s a useful social litmus test in the end.

Is there a person who melts your heart just by looking at you? >> No. Well, maybe Can Calah sometimes.

Have you ever had tom kha kai? It’s a Thai coconut soup, and it’s amazing. We serve it at work. >> No, but I’d definitely try it.

Have you, or anyone you know ever been rude to a server? >> I’ve never had the experience of having to watch someone I’m with be rude to a server and I am so glad for that.

What’s something you’re opinionated and very vocal about? When’s the last time you had to verbally defend your stance? >> I don’t know. I don’t really defend any stance of mine, I just put it out there sometimes if I feel like rambling about it and then leave it alone. Arguing with people about shit that ultimately really don’t matter is a waste of my valuable energy.

Have you ever played BitLife? I sort of got hooked on it, it’s like sims but in text form. >> No. I quite like the graphical form of The Sims, so I’ll stick to that.

What’s something you regularly order online? >> CBD.

When’s the last time you made a penpal? >> I’ve never had one.

Do you often make friends online? >> I make a lot of acquaintances online. Friends are far fewer.

Do people ever try to get something from somebody through you? As in, they ask you to ask the person they should be asking in the first place. If that makes sense. >> No. Which is good, because I wouldn’t do it.

What do you think when you see a couple holding hands? >> Nothing???

Is there anything you’re forced to share with someone else? >> No.

What’s something stripy that you own? >> I have a black-and-royal-blue striped robe with the Ravenclaw logo on the back.

How about something polka dotted? >> Nothing.

What is something you find absolutely appalling? >> Some people’s utterly disrespectful behaviour on this website.

Do you like elevators? >> I mean, they’re fine. I don’t dislike them.

What’s the first thing that comes to mind when I say “midnight madness”? >> Like... premieres? Or book releases? Or something like that. I have a vague association but I can’t remember exactly where it comes from.

What is a country you would never want to visit? >> ---

When you’re angry, does it ever get physical? >> Well, yeah, but not necessarily towards someone else.

What do you do, when you’re immensely happy? >> It depends on how I feel like expressing it at the time? Sometimes I don’t express it much at all, and sometimes I literally jump around the room.

What made you scream out loud the last time you screamed? >> ---

Can you hear your neighbours through the wall? >> Sometimes.

What is something that frustrates you to no end? >> Noise.

Do you wear shoes indoors? >> Absolutely not.

Who is your favourite stand-up comedian? >> Bo Burnham, Dylan Moran, and in general I’m fond of how Tiffany Haddish presents as a person and performer.

What’s the weirdest video youtube has suggested to you? >> It doesn’t usually suggest me anything weird.

What’s the funniest infomercial you’ve seen? >> ---

Is there a drink that just goes right through you? >> I don’t feel that way about any drink, no.

Is there a food item you can’t eat because it doesn’t agree with you? >> Not that I’ve encountered.

Do you playfully compete with someone about something? >> No.

Would you rather swim or run? >> I can’t swim, so my options are a little limited here.

Do you like the smell of tar? >> Sometimes, yeah.

Have you ever been to a sauna? >> No. I couldn’t last two minutes in a sauna.

Does your doorbell ring unexpectedly often? >> Not often, but sometimes people will ring multiple apartments trying to get into the building, which is fucking irritating.

Is your favourite fictional character a human, an animal or something else? >> I am my favourite fictional character. /facetious

Have you ever helped a stranger? If so, what did you do? >> I mean, sure. Just simple stuff, like picking up something they’ve dropped or letting them know they’ve left their key in the apartment door or dropping their mail off when it gets mistakenly put into my box.

Do you share hobbies with any of your friends? What do you do together? >> ---

Do you have any flags on display? If so, what flag(s)? >> I don’t. Sparrow has a rainbow flag with a peace sign in the middle on her wall.

How Comedians created Cancel Culture

Opinion Article

For years I did live performance and improv on a variety of stages, making people laugh. I finally decided to try my hand at stand-up comedy. I did a few open mic nights and was approached by a professional comedian who said that I could be great in this business, but “if you want to be famous, you need a clean act.”

I sneered at him. Why would I need a clean act? All the comedians I like are edgy and use offensive language. I could do clean comedy but I cuss all the time, I don’t mean to, it just comes out. So, If I need a clean act to be a stand up comedian, well then, I wasn’t going to be a standup comedian.

And, oh how, the times have continued to adapt to this idea.

Recently, comedian Rob Schneider defended another comedian, Shane Gillis, after Gillis was fired from the comedy show Saturday Night Live before he even appeared on the show. In the past, Gillis made racist and homophobic remarks which was brought to the attention to the folks at SNL and they quickly terminated Gillis.

Was SNL wrong to do so?

Schneider does and went to Twitter to air his grievances.

Schneider claims we shouldn’t wave our finger when we’ve never been in the position of a stand up comedian. Understandable.

But he waivers on this, as folks bombarded him with complaints and counter points, Schneider’s tweets had a different tone.

On one hand, Schneider abhors racist behavior but doesn’t think Gillis should have been fired, citing that “cancel culture is wrong” but yet states “people have a right to call racist things racist.”

So, is Gillis a racist since he made a racist joke?

We don’t know because we don’t know Gillis personally, but when you make racist jokes you get grouped with all those people who are racist.

Does he deserve all this backlash for some unfunny comments?

In this day in age, when most everyone has a smart phone and is recording everything they do and posting it online, it seems completely irresponsible to post anything homophobic or racist on a public platform.

So the question is, how did comedians like Rob Schneider, Joe Rogan, Chris rock and Jerry Seinfeld contribute to the cancel culture that they complain against?

Simple, they all spoke in favor of equal rights.

Each of the comedians I just mentioned have been doing comedy for well over 30 years in the public eye. During that time, each and everyone of those comedians all spoke in favor of equal rights.

What is equal rights?

To put it simply, equal rights is when every person is treated with the same fairness and respect regardless of their cultural background or sexual orientation.

So, for 30 years these comedians have been telling the world to be nicer to each other.

Well, guess what? They got their wish.

An entire generation has listened to people like the comedians mentioned and are now working hard at trying to create an equal society where everyone is treated fairly.

So, did these comedians honestly think that an equal society would laugh at their racist jokes? Or their rape jokes?

It would go against the very principles these comedians were telling people to uphold.

Now that more celebrities have been exposed for their horrendous behavior, people are taking a stand and choosing not to support these celebrities and protest their continued fame as they represent everything wrong with our society.

I loved Bill Cosby. I watched his show, did his stand up routines at school and listened to all his albums.

Then I found out Bill Cosby drugged and raped 50 women.

I no longer listen to Bill Cosby’s stand up or watch his show or even let my kids know he exists. (The same goes for Woody Allen and Louis C.K.) I feel terrible that I helped contribute to Cosby’s empire. By buying his albums and watching his show, my “monetary contributions” helped him to stay rich and powerful and rape those women.

People no longer wish to support such monsters as our society and culture evolve as it has always done.

At one time in, our country’s history, the funniest thing a white comedian could do was “black face” where a white person would paint their face black and do racist impressions of African Americans.

Now, “black face” is worst thing a white comedian could do.

As times changed, so did we and we are changing faster than ever before. Technology has catapulted us into a new era that is constantly evolving and we have to adapt or die.

So, when I hear all these comedians complaining about the very problem that they helped create, I can’t help but laugh at how their ego has created such a veil of ignorance over their eyes. I should know because I had the same veil over mine.

If I tell a joke and no one laughs, it’s not the fault of the audience. It’s the fault of the comedian and their crappy joke. All the comedian has to do is rewrite the joke which is what comedians do all the time.

I can only give these comedians and future comedians the same advice that I was given; if you want to be famous, go write a clean act and Godspeed.

If there is one thing we can learn from all of this it is that our words are powerful so use them wisely.

Sons of the Desert (1933)

Not many movie comedians survived the transition from silent film to synchronized sound. And though the team of Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy began their careers just before the introduction of talkies in 1927, they were one of the few silent film comedians to survive that transition. Their sense of humor remained visual but, unlike the many silent film comedians attempting to reinvent themselves to the ever-shifting demands of moviegoers, they placed little emphasis on the sound of their own voices. This also meant altering their on-screen personas before linking up as a comedic duo. Stan Laurel, Charlie Chaplin’s former understudy, began his career with characters that were smiling mischief-makers; for Hardy, he mostly played background characters or pompous comedic villains. As they began to work together, they refined their roles. Laurel became a quiet, wide-eyed fellow always reacting to what terrible things happen to him where Hardy tackles the problems head-on, rolling his eyes at the wise guys who make fun of him and his partner.

Laurel and Hardy’s partnership with Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM) producer Hal Roach – who specialized on comedic short films – extended into creating feature-length films. Roach realized that he could muster just enough comedic material from a Laurel and Hardy film’s main concept to last just over an hour. Any longer and the film would become wearisome. Directed by William A. Seiter and as Laurel and Hardy’s fourth feature-length film, Sons of the Desert represents a pinnacle of comedic filmmaking. It is the only time Seiter and the duo worked together. An ideal entry into 1920s and ‘30s Hollywood comedy, Sons of the Desert is a testament to Laurel and Hardy’s hilarity – combining silent-era slapstick with situational humor made even more hilarious thanks to the relationship they have perfected between their characters.

Stanley (Laurel) and Oliver (Hardy) are members of a fraternity named Sons of the Desert. The Sons of the Desert wear fezzes, take oaths, eat and drink, play pranks on each other, and little else from what yours truly can ascertain. Stan and Oliver belong to a California branch of Sons of the Desert, and the upcoming annual convention will be held in Chicago. All members take an oath that they will attend (to which Oliver forces a hesitant Stan to do so). The reason for Stan’s hesitance is his well-founded belief that his wife, Betty (Dorothy Christy), is certain to say that he cannot attend the convention. Oliver rolls his eyes, saying that Stan has taken, “a sacred oath”, and that sacred oaths must be upheld. To no one except Oliver’s surprise, Lottie refuses to allow Stan to attend the convention. And to everyone’s surprise, Oliver’s wife Lottie (Mae Busch) also disallows her husband to attend the Sons of the Desert convention. So Stan and Oliver hatch a scheme that includes a doctor (Lucien Littlefield), a fake ailment, and a Honolulu cruise.

None of this, as you are correctly thinking, goes according to plan.

Shot over twenty-one days and running barely over an hour, Sons of the Desert balances the slapstick perfected in the silent era with Frank Craven and Byron Morgan’s incredible wit (the film’s screenplay takes an idea from Laurel and Hardy’s 1928 short We Faw Down). Yet the brilliant comedic timing and the situation presented would not nearly be as funny as it is without the long-running characterizations of Laurel and Hardy’s on-screen personas. Laurel, so eager to land on his wife’s good side, cannot possibly tell her the truth for fear that a marital inconvenience might spiral out of control. Hardy, with confidence not entirely earned and a penchant for smack-talking anyone, cannot possibly see any reason for anybody denying what he wants. These are two adults acting like children – in real life, so-called “man children” are anything but funny. But the absurd plot developments found in Sons of the Desert and incredible depths of spousal disapproval – look how Mae Busch and Dorothy Christy can modulate from distress to outrage towards their husbands in a split-second – keep the hilarity rolling. Any scene involving the Sons of the Desert – from the fraternal outfits, pledges, complete absence of female members (one figures that, given the attitude Hardy shows towards to his wife, most of the members are attempting to escape from their home lives anyways), and that ridiculous sheik outfit worn by the fraternity’s leader (the “Exhausted Ruler”, Laurel calls him) giving any silent film fan vibes of a 1921 film starring Rudolph Valentino that happens to be incredibly racist, romantic, and hilarious.

Sons of the Desert is a pre-Code comedy and it takes full advantage of the absence of content standards that would be enforced by the Hays Code by 1934. Women showing skin, veiled sexual innuendo, and boorish behavior one expects from a fraternity are everywhere. Without further observation, Sons of the Desert would easily be dismissed by those expecting men to act respectfully. But perfect people are usually not funny, and Laurel and Hardy and their fellow Sons of the Desert are always framed as the ones acting inappropriately.

The “nagging wife” stereotype has been overused in Hollywood. Yet if you’re Mae Busch and Dorothy Christy – two actresses whose respective performances have been unfairly overshadowed by the central duo of Sons of the Desert – what can you possibly do but walk out or raise your voice? Busch and Christy are outstanding comedic foils. The film, through its screenplay and how it portrays the Sons of the Deserts, tries not to take sides. Thus, viewers might find themselves rooting for the husbands in one scene and then pulling for the wives in another. The dynamic between the husbands and the wives is summed in just two sentences:

OLIVER: Do you have to ask your wife everything? STAN: If I didn’t ask her, I wouldn’t know what she wanted me to do.

Everyone’s comedic timing is excellent. Hardy’s, “well, this is another fine mess you’ve gotten me into,” has entered cinematic lore. Less noticed but perhaps just as critical as anything else, Sons of the Desert – under Seiter’s direction – uses its gags with purpose, extracting from each joke just enough so that it does not become tired. There is no comedic deadweight in Sons of the Desert, no scene that could be cut without weakening the film (the runtime certainly helps). One of Seiter’s and Hal Roach’s greatest regrets for Sons of the Desert was that the most memorable moments during production had to be cut in the editing room. Whether it would be one of the cast members deviating wildly from the screenplay or a mistake, the cast frequently put those behind the camera bursting with laughter. Says Roach: “I was never upset that [the reshoots were] costing me money. I was upset that we couldn’t use some of the funniest scenes we saw every day.”

In 1964 with the blessing of an ailing Stan Laurel (Hardy has passed away several years prior), Shakespearean scholar John McCabe – who had published a Laurel and Hardy biography in 1963 – founded the Sons of the Desert, a Laurel and Hardy fan club. The Sons of the Desert, whose constitution (itself a humorous satire on fraternal constitutions) was co-written by Laurel, has numerous “tents” worldwide; most tents are found in the United States. Yes, I wrote that sentence in the present tense. You can find your nearest Sons of the Desert tent online. Actors, technicians, and other individuals who worked with Laurel and/or Hardy are sometimes guests at Sons of the Desert meetings. The respective tents remain active, with an international convention being held regularly since 1978 (and yes, that convention was held in Chicago).

Laurel and Hardy’s professional association with MGM’s Hal Roach yielded some of their best films. This partnership would last for rest of the 1930s, until the duo signed for 20th Century Fox in 1941 (which relegated the duo to their “B”-movie units) and MGM in 1942. Now contracted to these studios, Laurel and Hardy were no longer allowed as much artistic freedom as they had enjoyed under Roach during the silent era and the first decade of talkies. Their films remained financially successful, and 20th Century Fox stopped production on all other B-movies because of the windfalls from their Laurel and Hardy films. Nothing in these following decades ever reached the heights of Sons of the Desert, but the goodwill within Hollywood and international audiences always remained. The release of biopic Stan & Ollie (2018) – which this reviewer has not seen – is a reminder that, even with the passage of time and the changing norms in comedic films, Laurel and Hardy’s greatest films are hysterical and accessible to those who do not know of or could not imagine how revered they were in Hollywood’s early decades.

My rating: 10/10

^ Based on my personal imdb rating. Sons of the Desert is the one hundred and fifty-second feature-length or short film I have rated a ten on imdb.

How To Recruit More Reps Without Prospecting

Whether you just started out as a Network Marketing professional but don’t want to harass your family members and friends with your business opportunity, or you just ran out of your warm market but hate the idea of cold market prospecting, this blog post is for you.

In fact, I’m going to show you the exact step-by-step strategy to attract UNLIMITED prospects to you and NEVER run out of people to talk to about your business.

Since 2010, I have been building my Network Marketing business using social media, mainly using Facebook. I have seen almost everything that doesn’t work and realized that there are actually only a few ways that do work.

In this blog post I will be sharing with you the first steps in the process.

I will be giving you your very own social media operation, something I like to call the “Facebook Facelift“.

Before we go in to it, let me begin by letting you know WHY it is so important to have an attractive profile page. So, imagine when you are trying to find someone and you reach their profile page, the first thing you do without realizing (some of you realize you do it) is you judge their personality by the things you see straight away.

If you see someone drinking a beer most of the time you might associate him or her with being a party animal.

If you see them with a pet then you might think they are animal lovers.

If you see them with a girl or boy, you might think that they in a relationship – who knows, it could be their brother or sister!

My point is, people judge others by what they see. We don’t only just judge personality but we also judge lifestyle.

Facebook is such a big part of many peoples’ lives now that we check it before we even get out of bed. In fact there have been a number of reports that state that 79% of us check Facebook before leaving bed in the morning!

With that being said, people are posting photos, videos, statuses, check-ins, and all sorts to showcase their lives to the public.

Therefore, if someone happens to land on your profile page, it needs to be attractive enough to keep people hooked on what you are all about and follow your lifestyle! Why? Well, with an attractive profile comes the following:

Likeability: people end up liking you even if you haven’t even spoken to each other, this then results in more followers/friends.

Virality: people share attractive things; the more people share, the more your content gets seen, the more followers/friends you will get.

Attention: people will pay attention to your posts more, resulting in engaged followers/friends.

It is pretty obvious that you need to build an attractive profile if you want to succeed online, and to do this is actually really simple, and costs nothing!

Pay close attention to the following “Success Steps” as your online efforts through Facebook could dramatically change!

Success Step #1 – Understand Who You Are And Keep Your Message Very Clear!

As you now appreciate, all eyes will now be on your profile and what you post, as it is how people judge our personalities and lifestyle these days online. So, ask yourself these two questions: “Who am I?” and “What do I want to portray?”.

Are you an online marketer, singer, artist, athlete, network marketer, comedian, jetsetter, family person, etc. Be clear and don’t confuse your message, as you will end up confusing the people looking at you (your profile is you right now).

It is also very important that you should not be scared about what others think; if you do, then you will get nowhere, both online and offline.

Finally, whenever you post a photo, video or a simple status update, always ask yourself the simple question of:

“Does this go in line with the image I am trying to portray?”.

Over time the people that have been following you will think:

“(Name) has changed a lot, I would love to know what they are up to now, maybe I will reach out and find out!”.

Those people that have just come across your profile will think:

“This (Name) character seems like someone I should be following, maybe I reach out and find out more!”.

Success Step #2 – Choosing A Relevant Profile Picture!

So, one of the first things a person sees when they visit your profile is your profile picture.

Not only that, but when you comment on a photo, video or status, and when you share something, or you write a new status, your profile picture is what people see next to your name on their Facebook Wall.

You can’t really change your name, but you can certainly change your profile photo.

What you really want is for someone to recognize your posts by your photo and not your name!

This is the first step to branding on your Social Media, not just Facebook!

Be sure not to use the following:

Group Photos: don’t do this, no one will know which one is you so won’t be able to relate to you.

Pet Photos: unless it’s the image you are trying to portray, don’t include your pet in the photo, the focus should all be on you.

Couple Photos: again, the focus should be on you, it’s important. You can mention your partner in the relationship section. What happens if you keep changing boyfriends or girlfriends, think about it?

Fake Photos: don’t fake it until you make it. Be real, don’t edit it, don’t hire a jet or car and pretend that you own it – you would be surprised some of the people I have helped that have used a fake photo.

With that all being said, the best thing to do is use a head shot, keep it simple, and keep it in line with what you are trying to portray remember!

If you are arty or athletic then have a profile picture displaying that. If you are a professional (online or offline) look smart, maybe even put a suit on and smile.

Some people even go a step beyond and are clever with what they wear; for instance, if you have a light skin tone, wear a dark shirt, if you have a dark skin tone then wear a light shirt!

Best thing to do is to avoid the about bullet points, have a giant smile, no distracting background, no distraction foreground, and it just be of you. Head shots do work best: look at Eric Worre’s page, Tony Robbins and Robert Kiyosaki for examples.

Success Step #3 – Be Bold With Your Cover Photo!

The biggest part of your profile in terms of size is your cover photo.

Obviously the first two things that are seen by someone on your profile are the cover photo and profile picture. It is important that you make them as bold, clear and professional as possible (if that’s the image you are going for).

Please note, that at the time of writing this blog post, Facebook cover photos are displayed at 851 wide by 315 high.Social Media FB Profile Lead Machine

This might mean nothing to you, but just use a free pixel resizing website (use picresize.com if you don’t know a site).

Be sure to be consistent with your profile picture. I mean don’t have a professional profile picture and then have a cover photo of you going wild at a party; people will get confused.

If you are a speaker at events, then have a professional headshot profile picture and then maybe a photo of you speaking at an event as your cover photo. By doing this, almost instantly your visitors will be thinking, “I wonder what they do?”.

Taglines are good too.

Let’s say you are an athlete and have a cover photo of you on the starting block of the 100m sprint. Then why not have a tagline like: “Going for Gold!” or something. It all depends on the image you are trying to portray to attract the right people in to your social circle.

Oh, and by the way, don’t put loads of text in your cover photo and distract from the rest of your page. Keep it to less than 20% – remember, Facebook are strict so stick to their guidelines.

The aim of the game with building a business using social media is to build the rapport super fast. You can get one step ahead of the game by creating a cover photo that people look at and think “I am so similar” or “Wow, I want to be like that!”.

And in this FREE Training I share EXACTLY how I have helped create professional cover photos for over 100 Network Marketers so far.

Success Step #4 – Remove Spam Posts, Applications And Unclear Messages!

One thing almost everyone hates are those annoying notifications or posts about Candy Crush or Farmville or one of those kind of games/applications.

Make sure nothing like that appears on your wall; it is a giant turn off.

You also don’t want people thinking that you are playing those games, remember, you have an image to portray.

Another thing to note is keep an eye on posts that people tag you in and/or post on your wall.

If you are trying to come across as a business person then you don’t want people posting videos of drag racing, street fights, or car crashes and all those different stuff like that.

Make your profile clean, and keep it that way. If people continue to post stuff on your wall, then reach out to them and let them know to stop it.

Just in case you didn’t know, you can simply press delete, hide from timeline, or remove tag on the posts on your wall.

Again, it all comes back to “Who Am I?” and “What image am I trying to portray?”. Any posts that don’t tie in with that, delete it!

Success Step #5 – Be Smart With Your “About Me” Section!

Although this part is not a highlight of your profile page, it is still a place where you can make a major mistake.

Before I get to that though, it is important that you be real with what you say and once again, ensure it goes hand in hand with the image you are trying to portray.

Don’t just write that you’re amazing, you’re an expert, you’re the funniest person alive; show the kind of person you are with clever writing.

So, the one major mistake people do with this section is they don’t list their website,

Things like “Diamond Distributor at Company X” or “Affiliate for Product Y”.

Why? Simple really, but not many people really think about it.

Okay, so I visit your profile, think you are someone I want to be associated with, let’s say you are involved in Network Marketing. I am starting to wonder what company you are with and I notice a link to a certain companies website or company name. I review some of the information and move on. You have no idea what I have been thinking or that I have even visited your website.

Instead, you don’t put a website, simply a message like this: “On A Mission To Help 100 Families Lose 1000lbs In 2017, Ask Me How.” Now, when people contact you about what it is that you do, and then at least you know about their curiosity and can share your story, as well as sending them to the places you want them to go. You are now in control.

The “About Me” section is split into two sections, the introduction and information.

The introduction is where you get 140 characters to share a message like the one I stated above. Try to start off with “On A Mission To Help…” or “Helping People…”

People love others who are mission led, or doing things to help others.

The information is where you put down work related information and where you live and are from. Be clever about this.

Write CEO, Founder, Owner, Director, words of influence and importance, example, CEO of Network Marketing Professional, or Founder of Team Rhino. Whatever it might be, remember, you are the owner of your own business so you can give yourself any title you want!

Also be sure to write where you live and where you are from, people will be able to relate to that and you can create a conversation on the back of that.

I cover this section in a much more detail Social Media Prospecting & Recruiting Guide & Scrips

I share my screen and show you exactly what I mean by each success step.

Success Step #6 – Getting The Right Timing To Post!

This might seem a bit ridiculous, but getting the timing right when sending out your posts is important.

What is the point in sending a post when 100 people will see it, when that same post could be seen by 500 people?

We all have our very own “Facebook Rush Hour”.

This is when you have the most number of people you are connecting with online at any one time.

You can access this number in two ways:

Using Desktop. On the right side of Facebook you will see a sidebar, towards the bottom and it will say “MORE CONTACTS (XXX)”: it is the number in the brackets that you need to pay attention to.

Using Phone/Tablet. Within the Messenger App for Facebook, scroll down a bit on the Home section and it will say “ACTIVE NOW (XXX)”: it is the number in the brackets that you need to pay attention to.

Keep track of this number, make a note on Monday to Sunday, morning, afternoon, evening and night.

You will soon know and understand what time on each day you have the most number of people active: it will be a rough estimate.

Then with that information you will create and send your post 1 hour before. Why?

Well imagine you are driving to work, rush hour is at 7am: if you leave at 6am you completely miss it, you beat the traffic. The same applies with this process.

If you get ahead of the traffic, then the post is there for when people log on to Facebook at their usual time and then they will see it.

Planning is something almost no one does when it comes to their Facebook profile.

Be smart with the times of day that you are posting. Don’t post at 3am or 9am simply because people are either asleep or just getting in to work, and so your post might not get viewed by them. Bare this in mind when you are travelling with time differences too. From experience, 2pm and 9pm have seemed to be the best times to post.

Remember your own rush hour!

Success Step #7 – Utilize Photos, Images And Videos!

As most of you know, there are different types of posts you can make now on Facebook, like photos, videos, statuses, check-ins and life events.

Did you know, that depending on the time of day, Facebook will show you different types of posts?

They won’t show you as many videos during work hours because they know you won’t watch them, but after 7pm all the videos come out and your wall is covered in them!

First of all, I want to talk about videos on Facebook. They’re so easy to upload! You can literally do a video on your smart phone and upload it to Facebook within seconds.

Videos are well liked by Facebook: I mean if you go on to your Facebook wall now, you will probably see a video that starts to play, and if you don’t, you will if you scroll down a bit.

People like, comment and share videos and this causes it to be “viewed” by many people, including people you don’t even know.

So try it, shoot a video using your phone (in line with the image you are trying to portray) and upload it. Important: make sure to put your phone in landscape, so the phone is on its side; it will be seen by more people as it takes up less space on the Facebook news feed.

Use Facebook Live too! It is super powerful these days and nothing is more engaging; we will cover that in another blog post.

One thing to note is that if you are using YouTube, then don’t attach the link in the status itself: post it in the comments box. By doing this, more people will get to see your message.

Trust me, Facebook don’t like messages with YouTube links in the body of the message.

Secondly, I am a big fan of photo statuses.

I have tested out many posts in the past to see which got more traction: the one with just text, or the one with text and the photo. The photo always won.

So, what should be in your photos or images?

People: it is real, and you can’t fake it by finding an image on Google Images. Also, depending on what image you are trying to portray, it shows the human side of the business.

Quotes: people love seeing inspirational quotes. They often work well, and get shared, just make sure the wording along with it goes in line with what you are doing.

Events: if you attend an event, then capture it and share. Maybe you are speaking, sharing a story, or introducing someone, make sure someone gets that on camera; it will do you a world of good. Again, if you are posting links to external sites, be sure to put them in the comments box.

Lastly, real quick, Facebook check-ins are really cool, and powerful. Why? Because it shows off that you are on the move, at airports, sports stadiums, shopping, at events, concerts and so on. People seem to really like that and it’s really simple to do!

Success Step #8 – What Should You Be Posting?

I know by now you are thinking: “But I don’t know what I should be posting, I don’t want to look boring if I change the way I do things!”.

One of the questions I get asked a lot is:

“Erving, I don’t know what to post, I’m not creative!”

I took the time to create a very basic guideline and if you follow this you will be able to create content much easier than ever before.

Remember this: the more content you produce, the bigger the following you will create, the higher chance you have of going viral, and the more conversations you will end up having.

So, the guidelines.

Firstly, whatever you post must be in line with the image you want to portray. It must also attract your target market.

Secondly, it has to be at least one of the following from my formula.

R – Results – These posts are created to get you activity. You will post things like product before and afters, customer product reviews, distributor success stories or your own experience. It is important to know that you should NEVER mention the name of the company you are involved with, or the product name. Don’t give the game away, people should ask you for more information, after you have created the curiosity.

V – Value – These posts are created to help building your credibility. Become a note-taking machine. Whether you are reading a book, attending an event, talking with your upline leader, or simply hearing someone else’s story, be sure to make notes. You can then use those notes to create value based posts that people will like, comment and share with others, as they believe it will be beneficial for their following. This will lead to more people eventually seeing your Results posts.

L – Lifestyle – These posts are created to help build your engagement. I have always said that lifestyle is for likes. You don’t have to be a jetsetter for this, you simply have to capture things you do throughout your life. Maybe you are at an event, on a beach, in a coffee shop, on a plane, reading a book or with a friend playing tennis, capture the moment, write something relevant and post it at the right time. You will get more engagement which, in time, will lead to more people viewing your Results posts.

It all is around the Results posts: you want people to take action on the information you send. But here is where most people mess it all up.

They just hammer their Facebook wall with Results based posts. They just sell.

Stop selling, and start telling. Telling stories will lead to much better results.

I tend to post 2-3 lifestyle posts, and 2-3 value posts per 1 results based post. People like people who are real and non-salesy. Think about it…Would you love to see your friends sales pitches, or would you love to listen to every call a telesales rep makes? No, so avoid doing this and you will be doing better than most.

I hope it is really clear now that you need to make a plan and stick to it.

Basically your goal is to create your profile in such a way to make sure everyone that comes across you gets a clear message of how you want them to see you. As Facebook is just a giant part of most people’s lives now, it is very important you continue to ask yourself:

“Will this post be consistent with the message I am trying to portray?”.

Eventually you won’t even need to think about it as it will become a habit.

You are probably now realizing why you are not succeeding using Facebook. Attracting people to you and keeping them hooked on your lifestyle will eventually turn into sales as you are building trust between yourself and the user. Add to that a bit of engagement with your posts and sales will start rolling in.

Just make a point of it that, from now on, you will follow the success steps above to ensure you do exactly what is needed in order to succeed!

If you feel like you got some value from this post then feel free to share this post with anyone you think might get benefit…Remember, it would be a value post

How Humor Can Ease the Stress of COVID-19

Key Takeaways

Studies show that humor has the power to reduce fear and anxiety, resolve conflicts, and help weather disappointments. There are many ways to find humor and keep your spirits up during these challenging times. We've all heard the popular saying, "Laughter is the best medicine." But does that type of thinking apply to something as serious as a global pandemic? Most psychologists would say yes. Humor helps people take

back their sense of power in a powerless situation and it helps them connect with others—two things we have lost during this pandemic. And although there is nothing particularly funny about what we're going through, science suggests that those funny memes, crazy TikTok videos, and snarky online quotes may be just what we need to ease the overwhelming fear, anxiety, and grief many of us are dealing with daily. Even loneliness has become as crushing as the pandemic itself threatening to overwhelm people every day. We need something to lighten the stress load we're all experiencing. And humor could be just what the doctor ordered.

How People Benefit From Laughing

The seriousness of COVID-19 is no laughing matter. People are dying every day, and those in the medical field are being stretched beyond what any person should have to bear. But, we all need to find a way to cope with the dangers and limitations we're facing or risk serious mental health consequences. For some, the answer may be laughter. Laughter activates important feel-good hormones in the brain while also reducing stress-related hormones like cortisol. Laughter also increases the number of antibody-producing cells we have working in our bodies. And, it enhances our T-cells, which are at the core of adaptive immunity and help tailor our immune response. All of this equates to a stronger immune system. Research also indicates that humor benefits both a person's physical and psychological state. Studies show that humor can provide pain relief, improve positive emotions, regulate stress, disengage from distress, and improve interpersonal communications. And, according to the Association of Applied and Therapeutic Humor, people experience a 39% reduction in stress just by anticipating humor. There also is a physical release that comes through laughter—it's a cleansing sort of feeling that impacts us both physically and emotionally. Most people feel really good after laughing. Many people report that they feel like a weight has been lifted. And, at a time when so much is weighing us down, it can be very therapeutic to engage in some good-natured humor. Strategies for Improving Your Psychological Well-Being During a Crisis Ways to Add Humor to Your Life Laughter is a free and easy stress management tool that can be used by just about anyone to lighten the mood and improve mental health. Here are some ways to add a little humor into your life during this challenging time.

Subscribe to Funny YouTube Channels

There's nothing funnier than watching goofy pet videos. Even videos of babies doing silly things can be entertaining. So, if you're feeling a little down and want a good laugh, just log onto YouTube and search "popular comedy" or "funny videos." You're bound to find something that will make you laugh. Or, you may want to subscribe to regular YouTubers that make a living making others laugh. Then, you will have a regular stream of funny videos ready to go in your inbox. If you're wondering what to look for, you might try Good Mythical Morning. You also could check out the Holderness Family, Kristin and Danny Adams, and or even Heather Land's "I Ain't Doin It." Bad Lip Reading of the NFL is usually good for a few laughs too. The options are endless.

Watch Comedians Online

Countless numbers of comedians are offering their comedy routines online. Even with social distancing measures in place, many are still putting out new material. All the regulars like Jimmy Fallon, Steven Colbert, and Jimmy Kimmel are producing regular material that is readily available. Simply do a quick search to find the latest material or watch some older versions. And let's not forget about the copious amounts of content available on Hulu, HBO, and Netflix. Just head over to the comedy section and laugh until your sides hurt.

Share Old Stories

Nothing's better than sharing stories about funnier times. Whether you're on Skype, Zoom, or FaceTime, it's fun to remember the old days and laugh about the silly things you did. Plus, sharing those old stories helps strengthen bonds and reminds you of how much you have to be thankful for. So, the next time you're talking with a friend or family member, share a "Remember when" story. It's sure to bring a smile to both your faces.

Tell Jokes

There's nothing better than "Dad jokes." They are so silly and cringe-worthy that they are bound to make you laugh. So, if you want to crack up your kids or make your co-workers giggle during the next Zoom meeting, do a quick search of Dad jokes and see what you can come up with. Or, maybe you could have a contest among your family members to see who can tell the best joke each night at dinner. A good pun is also always a solid way to make someone smile.

Play Games

If you're staying at home with family members, try playing a fun board game together. It doesn't take long for everyone to forget about the stresses of everyday life when you're engaged in a game of Loaded Questions. Even strategy games like Monopoly and Sequence can lighten a dull mood and bring a little laughter into your home. If you happen to be sequestered alone, try organizing an online game party. For instance, Jackbox Games offers a wide variety of digital platforms that people can purchase and download games to play remotely. Then, they can set up game parties with as many as eight people.

Laugh at Yourself

There are lots of things you're probably doing that if you stepped back and looked at them, you would find they are quite funny. Maybe it's the way your face mask makes your hair stick out on the sides. Or maybe it's the fact that you walked past your partner's Zoom meeting in your pajamas. Or, it could be the fact that you filmed a video for work without realizing that your giant cutout of Captain America is standing in the background. Everyone does silly things. The key is to laugh at yourselves a little bit. Because when you laugh, others take it as a cue to laugh as well.

Create or Watch TikTok Videos

TikTok is one of the most popular social media apps out there. And during this pandemic, people are taking to it in droves creating their funny takes on everything from staying at home to the toilet paper shortage. In the meantime, TikTok has created donation stickers that allow online creators to raise money for coronavirus relief efforts. And even those in the medical field are using the app to get important information to younger users. So, if you've got a few extra minutes and want a good laugh, download the app, and have fun.

What This Means For You

Humor is mankind's built-in coping mechanism that distracts us from the difficulty action we are living and allows us to release some built-up tension. It's a type of mental armor that allows us to manage the unmanageable. So, go ahead and laugh at those funny pet videos or turn on a rerun of America's Funniest Home Videos. A good, solid belly laugh may be exactly what you need to lighten the mood, relieve some stress, and feel better overal.

1. What’s the most cruel thing you’ve ever said/done to someone else?hmm, I cant pinpoint an actual event?? multiple times people say i go “too far” when i dish back the kind of things they say to me, but i dont consider that bad? if i did, it would go against one of my basic principals. I guess the time i really feel guilty for was in 4th grade i’d kick this one kid, jacob in the balls whenever he pissed me off. its okay we’re still friends, but that was pretty dickish of me

2. Do you believe in karma? not in a religious sense, but yeah. if you do something bad somethings else bad is bound to come back and get you.

3. Do you consider yourself to be an independent person? oh yeah big time. i loathe depending on other people for anything, and im entirely self-motivated. my parents aren’t very supportive in their own way so i dont have them to fall back on for help. i kinda have to be independent or else i wont be able to do anything ever haha

4. How do you think the world will end and when? ironically? the world will end by the end of this year damn trump gonna ruin everything, even the quaint little country in canada. unironically? global warming is a big issue and if we continue at this rate, statistics give us a max of 100 years to live due to deadly heat, so id place my bets on that if not a nuclear war between superpowers.

7. How far are you willing to go to see your greatest wish come true? What would you sacrifice? i dont really have a greatest wish, and if i did it would depend on what it is. but for basic outlines, the majority of my wish would have to take a toll on me, and it would just have to minorly inconvenience other people, no matter who they are. if i wanted something that bad id find a way to take the butt end of the stick always.

8. What do you hope your legacy will be and who will it be left to? jesus i just want to be remembered by the world. its one of my biggest goals to do something important enough that my name makes it into a textbook, even for a paragraph. i think this is why im such a tryhard? “lmao i needa legacy let me just fuckinnuuuuuuuhhhh be great at everything. thats a good plan.”

9. Weirdest pet peeve? i have so many obscure weird ones, so ill say 2. when i walk anywhere by feet have to touch the shaded part of the ground an even number of times and the light parts even and the half-shadowed parts even and the weird discoloured parts even. i even slow my walking pace or stop as a whole just so my feet are balanced, and im actively counting my steps. also, when i wash my hands i get super annoyed if i have like a bandaid on one finger/something that cant get wet and when i go to dry them, all my fingers are actively losing water on them except that one dry finger. i have to drip a couple drops of water on it and then dry it or else im uncomfortable the whole day.

Leslie Jones Is Leaving ‘S.N.L.’ Here Are Her 10 Funniest Moments.

“Saturday Night Live” won’t be quite the same without Leslie Jones, who is leaving the show. Who else will provide spot-on impersonations of Whoopi Goldberg, Omarosa Manigault Newman and Oprah Winfrey? Who else will come up with better nicknames for Colin Jost? (“Flat White Privilege Latte.” “Little Salty Oyster Cracker.”) Jones was a part of the “S.N.L.” cast for only a little more than five years, but she leaves behind a lot to remember.

Jones was not always beloved on the internet. She endured racial and misogynist harassment on Twitter, and in 2016, between seasons of “S.N.L.,” her website was hacked and nude photos stolen from her iCloud were published online. Jones addressed the matter on the show’s season premiere in probably the best way possible. “The only person who can hack me is me,” she defiantly declared on Weekend Update. “I ain’t shy. If you want to see Leslie Jones naked, just ask.” She had faced worse things than online trolls, she reminded everyone, and she’d been roasted by professional comedians. Anyone with computer skills was wasting them hacking or harassing her, she said — you could be renewing your driver’s license from home instead, or deleting everyone else’s profile from Tinder, or even building a robotic perfect man. “Forget about Westworld,” she said. “I’m talking about LeslieWorld.” Who doesn’t want to go there?

[“I just like to bring the funny,” Leslie Jones told our reporter.]

��U.E.S.’

One of Jones’s own favorite things about LeslieWorld was her Manhattan neighborhood, the often-underestimated Upper East Side: “Y’all say it’s boring. Y’all say it’s homogeneous. But y’all don’t know it like I do!” She loves the great bakeries, the accessible taxis and the subway trains with a “nobody peed in here” smell. “I thought at 50 I’d be broke or dead, but now I’m a lady from Compton in line for fresh bread,” she rapped. It’s the little things, yo.

‘Alabama Abortion Ban’

When Alabama state senators voted to ban abortions and passed a law that would jail doctors who performed them, an angry Jones took to Weekend Update in a red robe, á la “The Handmaid’s Tale,” to declare the move a war on women. She later dropped the robe to reveal a T-shirt reading “Mine,” with an arrow pointing to her uterus, and she declared her solidarity with all women who might feel “scared or confused.” “You can’t make me small or put me in a box. I’m six feet tall and 233 pounds. Ain’t no box big enough to hold me. And I know, because one time I tried to mail myself to a dude.” Point made.

‘Hidden Figures’

Jones sees herself as “Pam Grier from about 15 years ago, and Malia Obama 10 years from now,” and she likes to rock boats. In this Weekend Update bit on Black History Month, she used the film about the vital role black women played at NASA in the 1960s as a jumping off point to argue that black history shouldn’t be relegated to one month a year. After all, if she had known that a black man, Garrett Morgan, invented traffic lights, she might have respected them more when driving! And then there was the mechanical engineer Philip B. Downing: “A black person invented the mailbox,” Jones said. “How did you all miss that, white people?” Sometimes we need Jones to point out the obvious.

‘Naked & Afraid: Celebrity Edition’

In this 2016 spoof of “Naked & Afraid” the guest host Peter Dinklage was …very afraid. Jones showed up nude, tried to cuddle him for body warmth, and kept calling him by his character name on “Game of Thrones.” (“Don’t start with me on Day 1, Tyrion!”) Pretty much anytime Jones gets into “Game of Thrones” territory — in her “Game of Jones” TV viewing parties with Seth Meyers, her popular live-tweet commentaries or “Thrones”-themed skits on “S.N.L.” — she’s on fire. She’s Leslie Dracarys Jones!

‘Etiquette Lesson’

Many of Jones’s characters come up against racism, sexism and classism, and one of the more hilarious of these encounters involves royal etiquette lessons — and corporal punishment — in preparation for the christening of the son of Britain’s Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. The walloping is unleashed by Emma Thompson, who is trying to teach Jones, playing a distant cousin of the duchess of Sussex, how to behave at a royal tea. This is high-grade slapstick — the blows really seem to take Jones by surprise, and the nasty undercurrent gives the skit a dark bite. Obvious cue-card reading is an “S.N.L.” staple, but Jones and Thompson manage to avoid it; they seem incredibly present together.

‘House Hunters’

Jones is a great ranter, but she can play it (relatively) straight, too, as she did in this spoof of “House Hunters.” Jones and her husband (Liev Schreiber) are reviewing on-the-market homes to buy and finding that they have increasingly absurd drawbacks: vertical floors, tubs filled with magicians, toilets in the ceiling. It gets pretty weird, but Jones nails the tricky comedic timing with perfect equanimity. It’s a gift.

Jones and a fellow cast member Kyle Mooney appeared in a series of digital shorts depicting a fictitious relationship (it involved a secret marriage and a son named Little Lorne). Then the faux couple experimented with actually getting physical (although not actually) in the dressing room of show host Paul Rudd — who inconveniently showed up and joined in the fun. (Interestingly, he seemed more interested in Mooney than Jones.) Is this happening? Probably not anymore.

Can a bitch get a beef bowl? Jones’s very first appearance on Weekend Update in 2014 (after she’d joined the show’s writers room) remains her most controversial. In a hilarious rant, she compared her modern-day dating prospects to what she might have found during the time of slavery. (She joked she would be the “No. 1 slave draft pick.”) She later defended this bit on Twitter, explaining that comedy comes from pain, and she vowed to hit even “harder and deeper” from then on. Which she definitely did.

Honorable Mention: ‘Gift Wrap’

Comedians break character on “S.N.L.” all the time, and Jones is no exception. Most memorable was a holiday-themed skit she did with the host James Franco, who squirted fake blood directly into her mouth — maybe an accident, maybe not. This was live television, of course — Jones started to vomit, and struggled to hold it back. She wasn’t able to deliver her scripted lines, but she still managed to be funny, cycling through a series of very realistic chokes, coughs and winces. Even under duress, Jones delivered: Anything for a laugh.

Leslie Jones Is Leaving ‘S.N.L.’ Here Are Her 10 Funniest Moments. – The New York Times

“Saturday Night Live” won’t be quite the same without Leslie Jones, whose departure was reported Tuesday by various news outlets, all citing anonymous sources. Who else will provide spot-on impersonations of Whoopi Goldberg, Omarosa Manigault Newman and Oprah Winfrey? Who else will come up with a better line of jive for Colin Jost? (“Flat White Privilege Latte.” “Little Salty Oyster Cracker.”) Jones was a part of the “S.N.L.” cast for only a little more than five years, but she leaves behind a lot to remember.

5 Hilarious Twitter Accounts (And What We Can Learn From Them)

We all love a good laugh.

Honestly, show me a living person who doesn’t love to laugh and I’ll show you a walking corpse.

Humour is an incredibly relatable way to connect with people, and it can be used very effectively on social media.

But why? The answer is simple: people remember funny stuff. Our brains are wired to remember things when we feel strongly, and humour is the eruption of happiness—everyone’s favourite emotion. So how do we make people remember us? We make them laugh.

However, there’s a fine line between being funny, and being over the top, boring, politically incorrect, offensive, pandering, annoying… (Add negative adjectives here and the list goes on forever).

How do you create funny content that people will love? Twitter is the one social network where a good joke is almost always a hit, so let’s see what we can learn from five of the funniest brands on Twitter.

Bonus: Download the free strategy guide that reveals how Hootsuite grew our Twitter following to over 8 million users and learn how you can put the tactics to work for your business.

1. Chipotle

First up is the famous Mexican(ish) Grill fast food chain, Chipotle. You’re probably thinking, “how funny can a burrito get?”

If you have to ask that question you probably aren’t adding enough hot sauce. But on a scale from one to 10, where one is your college sociology class (AKA Funbusting 1000) and 10 is watching Paula Abdul on American Idol, Chipotle gets a solid 7.

Hilarity Index: 7/10

What can we learn?

The well-executed pun.

Many will say that puns are the lowest form of humour. They’re wrong, believe me. A well-executed pun always works.

How do you write a good pun? A pun is a joke that exploits words that have double meanings or may sound like one another, but if you want to write a good pun make sure the punned word works both ways.

Rock out with your guac out.

— Chipotle (@ChipotleTweets) January 13, 2016

Using audience insights.

Dig into the insights of your audience, and use it to your advantage. In this case, the insight is that literally everyone loves guac, but hates paying the extra dough for it. Then, spin it as a joke.

Remember that during even your worst moments you are worth adding guac.

— Chipotle (@ChipotleTweets) October 26, 2018

2. Moonpies

Honestly, it’s just a marshmallow jammed between two graham crackers covered in chocolate, but Moonpies are just as funny online as they are delicious in real life. So how do they do it?

Their schtick is that their social media team runs the account almost like it’s their own personal Twitter. And it works.

On a scale from one to 10, where one is a never-ending video of a tumbleweed rolling past an abandoned gas station and 10 is going to Disneyland after a bottomless mimosa brunch, Moonpies gets a 9.

Hilarity Index: 9/10 (Because there’s always room for improvement.)

What can we learn?

Uhm, who is Linda?

Moonpies are experts at joke recall, a skill that makes stand-up comedians stand out from the crowd. And the only difference between social media and stand up comedy? A microphone.

Anyone who’s good at Twitter always follows the 4 p’s Proactiveness Placement Please Linda Please come back

— MoonPie (@MoonPie) August 8, 2018

Eating a snack > looking like a snack > accidentally driving away someone you love Linda please come back

— MoonPie (@MoonPie) September 29, 2017

The joke goes back further than 2017, too. Linda’s been gone for a while, and it’s funny every time.

Clever use of the medium.

A joke about not finishing what you’ve started? Tired. But Moonpies freshens it up by using the medium and creating a visual gag.

If you want to be successful at business you have to PROFIT P ush your limits R espect the boss O rder lots of office supplies F inish everything you start I T

— MoonPie (@MoonPie) July 30, 2018

3. Netflix

What started out as a business we all thought would be a joke by this time in human existence (snail-mail subscription service for movie rentals? Ok…) has now turned into one of the biggest household brand names of our time. And not only does their actual TV content slay, so does their Twitter.

On a scale from one to 10 where one is living under a rock and 10 is living in a real-life meme, Netflix comes in at a solid 7.

Hilarity Index: 7/10

What can we learn?

They listen, and respond.

Netflix is known for their hilarious Twitter responses to both online trolls and actual customers, and they’ve completely nailed how to do it in a way that leaves you wanting more. Not unlike their cliffhanger episode endings, ugh.

— Netflix US (@netflix) October 28, 2018

The timely pop-culture-reference-turned-meme.

I mean, they are a brand that relies entirely on the existence of pop-culture, but imagine if they weren’t able to use that to their advantage online? *shudder* The key here is that they’re timely, and they aren’t recycling old memes.

if this isn't me pic.twitter.com/gZhz3gcraq

— Netflix Canada (@Netflix_CA) October 26, 2018

4. Merriam-Webster

They’re just the dictionary. Boring, right?

Not so, my friend. For an exhaustive collection of definitions wrapped up with a cutesy little name like Merriam-Webster, this brand is the master at throwing shade and sipping tea on Twitter.

On a scale from one to 10, where one is an empty bean bag chair and 10 is a bouncy castle even though you’re 32, I give Merriam-Webster a 7.5.

Hilarity Index: 7.5/10 (The added — or is it deducted? — .5 is for throwing shaaaaaade.)

What can we learn?

Sometimes it’s ok to sass.

Adding funner to the dictionary? Come on, Danny. But honestly, look at that sass. They get away with it because it’s well-intended and obviously sarcastic.

.@dannygonzalez Why don't you look words up before complaining to the dictionary? https://t.co/2HFnO4Y0aY

— Merriam-Webster (@MerriamWebster) January 17, 2017

Or throw a bit of shade.

No comment necessary.

Good morning! The #WordOfTheDay is…not 'unpresidented'. We don't enter that word. That's a new one. https://t.co/BJ45AtMNu4

— Merriam-Webster (@MerriamWebster) December 17, 2016

The key to throwing shade or sassing people on Twitter is to make sure your brand and audience can handle it. And even then, you also have to make sure it’s clear you’re being sarcastic, and that your shade or sass isn’t offensive.

5. KFC

Another fast food joint. I know, groan, but hear me out. Our friends over at KFC aren’t exactly pumping out award winning chicken (sorry), but their subtle jokes online deserve some praise.

On a scale from one to 10, where one is coming home to find out your roommate ate your leftovers and 10 is a freshly stocked buffet at Golden Corral (complete with those cheesesteak meatballs), I give KFC a 6.

Hilarity Index: 6/10

What can we learn?

The art of subtlety.

The art of creating a subtle joke often escapes most—even comedians, writers, and actors. But when executed well online, a not-so-hidden hidden joke can often go viral and make a lot of people fall in love with your brand.

KFC follows 11 people. The 5 Spice Girls, and 6 people named Herb. I’ll give you a minute.

That’s 11 herbs and spices, which is KFC’s famous recipe. We’re done here.

The 30 Year Old Dramaturgy: Kevin James Doyle @ Edfringe 2017

(No) Sex and the City – New York Revelations

New York comedian Kevin James Doyle is coming to the 70th Edinburgh Fringe Festival with a show all about sex – or the complete lack of it.

Raised as a clean-living young Christian he knew that sex had to be saved for marriage. But then, God forbid, he hit 30, his engagement broke up and he was still a virgin.

Laughing Horse at Southside Social (Venue 264)

August 3-14 and 16-27

Time: 23:15

Guidance: 18+

Tickets: Free non ticketed

What was the inspiration for this performance?

The inspiration for this particular show was anxiety. The anxiety of doing 8 minute sets of comedy sets when I had 60 minutes of stories that were closer to me and more what I have wanted to talk about than a two minute joke. Having been a performer for 16 years or so now, it's rare to feel like you have to get something out artistically.

Usually I go from project to project hoping something bigger or comes along, but I have never felt that intense urge to work on material like I have this show. Maybe it is getting older and more serious about my career and my "art" but I just got so anxious about the thought of not doing the show that is in my head that I had to do it to calm that anxiety.

It is called The 30 Year Old Virgin and it is very personal, about growing up in a conservative home, getting engaged young, breaking off my engagement, being a virgin as an adult and how I ended up there. So it makes sense that I had to get this stuff out because its about my formative years in my home growing up, the biggest heartbreak I have ever experienced and feeling weird about my life choices as an adult as life didn't play out like I expected.

If you hold that stuff in its going to be very

difficult, if you talk about it it has the potential to be more compelling than any new joke about food or how annoying people can be at concerts or how public transportation sucks.

Is performance still a good space for the public discussion of ideas?

Yes. The shared experience of live performance has the potential to bring people together like nothing else. The internet and social media are deceptive because they give us the opportunity to interact with anyone about anything which has been revolutionary but proven to have the drawbacks of shallowness or bring out our lack of empathy. The is no better conversation than over a beer or a coffee after a play, a film, a concert or a comedy show.

I read TV recaps and I comment on people social media and use my own but seeing a performance, then having a beer after and talking about it with a friend, or stranger for that matter is much more fulfilling and memorable and beneficial. It doesn't make the other bad its just different. Filet mignon is better than McDonalds.

Cognac from 1875 is better than Jameson. A bespoke suit is better than Men's Warehouse. A swiss watch is better than a timex. Belgian chocolate is better than Sour Patch Kids.

And if anyone disagrees with these comparisons I would prefer to discuss it in person over a beer after a performance than online.

How did you become interested in making performance?

I was always enjoyed making my family and friends laugh. My parents suffered through years of me on the basketball team sitting the bench. In 8th grade my mom suggested I audition for the school play, You're A Good Man Charlie Brown, I did and was cast as Charlie Brown. I found an outlet for getting attention and making people laugh that was not disruptive and annoying.

After that I kept pushing towards more forms of creativity, going to school for theater, performing stand up in New York, writing sketches, writing short films, storytelling and hosting events. Anything I could find to get the energy out of me that desires to have people pay attention to me and when is not curbed I become very obnoxious. When I am performing I am slightly less obnoxious.

Is there any particular approach to the making of the show?

The only one that is true across the board for any show is "doing it" rather than talking about "doing it." If you want to write a script for a show you have to write it, not talk about writing it. Or in the case of the show I am working on now, I had to book a show and get on stage and talk for 60 minutes in front of people.

I spent a lot of time writing in a notebook and at a certain point I found that I was avoiding getting on stage to perform the show because their was safety in the notebook. I think the approach for any show though is make it, then refine it, then refine it more, then refine it more and then at a certain point it will be as ready as its going to get.

For this show I spent 5 years gather and developing stories through years of stand up, a few months collecting all that stuff in a notebook, 2 hours putting it all in order on a one page document, then performed it for the first time. Now I will refine it all by performing over and over again until its "done."

Does the show fit with your usual productions?

This is very different from anything I personally have ever done. My first few years in New York I acted in plays and musicals. Then I wrote an off broadway sketch show, then I did stand up which is mostly 10 minute sets.

This differs because it is my show, it's 60 minutes and all the the stories are in an arch of beginning, middle and end. I have lots of material that does not fit into this show cause it doesn't serve the story, so I care much more about the arch of the story and making that as funny as it can be, than having my funniest joke ever in there if it doesn't serve the story.

What do you hope that the audience will experience?

I hope the audience will laugh, cringe and remember the times they felt the same way. One thing I am very excited about in this performance is that it deals with growing up, heartbreak, pain, anxiety and things that everyone knows and has experienced.

The specifics of the story are mine but the themes its covers are universal. I have seen a lot of comedy that is the performer vs. the audience and I love the comedians that can make that entertaining and compelling. I never felt comfortable doing that and I would much rather connect with the audience through bringing them into my life and experiences.

I have tried to do it in certain shows before, reading from my childhood journals, telling short stories about growing up but never on this large of a scale, this vulnerable and this long of a story.

What strategies did you consider towards shaping this audience experience?

I have put together a number of shows at people homes. It felt right to do this show in a living room with 25 people drinking wine, rather than at a bar.

I am doing both of those, but even the shows I have done at bars I have set the room up to have the audience closer and the lights up a little more, so that its not the performer isolated in the lights and the audience watching.

The first time I performed the show which was very very scary for me was in a friends living room with people on the floor and on couches, I could look them in the eyes, no spotlight. For some reason this felt much less scary than being in the dark.

I think instinctively I knew that people need to know that I see them and I am sharing something with them, not talking at them. I think it has also forced me to not hide, kind of like facing the fear rather than getting through it by not seeing it for what it is.

Doyle’s The 30 Year Old Virgin world premieres as part of the Free Fringe and is a funny, vibrant, honest and vulnerable set of revelations about his upbringing and the subsequent rollercoaster ride of horniness and climactic hilarity.

“There I was, aged 30 and had never had sex – so what was I going to do? There was nothing for it but to dive right in to a whole new world where I was a total innocent, fumbling in search of experience,” says Doyle, “But can you imagine what it’s like to date a girl at that age and reveal that you’ve never had sex?”

Doyle is known for his delightfully entertaining storytelling, full of painfully funny home truths and personal revelations. There was, for example, the moment when as a hormone-fuelled teenager heading off for school his mother confronted him with a lotion bottle from the bathroom shouting “Kevin, this stuff’s expensive, stop it!”

An Edinburgh Fringe first timer he has an extensive track record in the USA. Doyle’s successful long running Off-Broadway comedy, How to Be a New Yorker had over 400 performances in Times Square.

He also hosts Great Times, the popular New York stand up show which is a testing ground for new material from comedians like Jim Gaffigan, Mike Birbiglia, Ilana Glazer – writers from Saturday Night Live, TheLate Show with Stephen Colbert and The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon.

Doyle brings many years of comedy experience and bucket loads of finely honed material with him across the Atlantic. He’s also dogged by lingering parental disappointment that such a promising young man should have ended up as a comedian.

“As it’s a premier I’ve got no reviews to share with people so I told my parents about the show to see what they thought,” says Doyle, “My mum’s response was ‘Are you sure you want to talk about this stuff on stage?’ and Dad weighed in with ‘You don't have to swear to be funny, I hope your show is clean comedy’. Encouragement means everything.”

Consider this issue this way: what you might find pretty funny, say you enjoy watching video clips of people obtaining pranks or practical jokes pulled on them; somebody else might look at and say that's not Really that amusing. They might feel that what you think is really funny is really pretty ridiculous to them.

Blogs like You Tube and Google Videos are central exchanges of funny videos and other popular video types, and there are also a range of additional special purpose funny video sites that specialize in the funny video genre. The action of creating a funny video isn't quite as simple as thinking of a couple jokes or funny situations and then getting out the camera. Developing a humorous video calls for a great deal of consideration, function, and focus on detail. Should you follow the tips outlined in this guide, you're certain to create a humorous video that's of excellent value to your target audience.

The very first matter to think about when creating a humorous video is to have a look at your target audience. Are you targeting the pre-teen audience who prefers slapstick and potty humor, or are you wishing to target a middle aged crowd that's more discerning in the type of funny video that they enjoy? Even the most sophomoric amusing video needs to have a target audience. It is never likely to amuse everybody, so choosing a target audience can help you earn a funny video that's of excellent worth to the audience you are trying to reach without needing to worry about other viewers. Once you've worked out your audience, you can get started planning your own funny video.

The next thing to consider when planning a humorous video is whether you would like the funny video to be live action or animated. Animation used to be technology that has been available only to well funded studios--however, the arrival of Macromedia Flash and other similar software has resulted in something of the animation revolution. It's currently possible for anybody to create a funny video which uses complex animation techniques using a standard personal computer. Of course, while Macromedia Flash and other computer animation applications can have a pretty steep learning curve, anybody who's interested in created an animated funny video will do well if they take the opportunity to understand how to use those tools.

Once you have chosen the form of funny video in addition to your audience, now is the time to begin composing. Even the shortest funny video (a lot of a thriving funny video has made the rounds of the internet while being significantly less than a minute long) requires a basic premise and plot, and Funny Videos 2017 this requires writing and planning. The worst mistake that someone can make when shooting a funny video is to try to do the entire thing off the cuff, with no written script. Especially if multiple actors are involved, then it is necessary to do some writing before shooting a humorous video.

Funny Videos have made their way into every single persons household at one time or another. Technology has also made it quite simple to capture, view and send funny videos through a number of distinct types of media.

The days of getting a video on your own giant camcorder and then replaying it at the VCR are long gone. Now Funny videos could be captured using a number of different devices and can also be transmitted directly to a person in any given moment with the push of a button.

Capturing a humorous moment on video is a priceless endeavor and may be used over and over again to make a laugh from relatives or in this day and age that which seems like the whole world. Shows such as Americas Funniest Home Videos have created trying to catch funny instances on video really common. Video shows have also rewarded money to people who may take what we as the audience feel is the amusing video. Sometimes the acts are staged, and sometimes it's mere coincidence that the camera was rolling when something funny happened.

One very popular way to catch and send a funny video is via cell phone. So many times average folks or even celebrities are caught doing hilarious actions on someones cell phone only to turn around and get it seen by what looks like the whole world in mere moments. When capturing a video on a mobile phone, you can easily send it to everyone in your complete contact list that in turn can send it to everyone in their contact record. The amusing video will spread like wildfire.

The internet has also made it very easy to capture and share videos. By shooting the clip and posting it on popular websites like You Tube or Facebook, the video can be viewed Funny Chinese Videos 2017 over and over again by a number of different viewers. Those viewers may then recommend others see the video as well again gaining in popularity each time it is watched.

Video cameras are also still a fantastic way to get a humorous moment, however, the big bulky cameras now are very small and some don't even have a disk or tape for recording. Most cameras are considered electronic and can be looked at and replayed on a pc and then burnt onto a disk to be used in a DVD player.

Although the video clip may be funny to the people viewing it, it might be downright embarrassing to the individual Funny Videos involved. Capturing and reposting a humorous video should not be done in the cost of someones feelings.

It is crucial to not forget that once the video is posted, it is not easy to carry it back so take caution when posting the video that it will not be damaging to someones self esteem.

Overall, everyone loves a good laugh and capturing it on video is a superb way to have a memento to remember for a long moment. Funny videos can be shared with generations to come and are a great way to recall laughs and good times had by family and friends.
