I suppose if we couldn't laugh at things that don't make sense, we couldn't react to a lot of life.

If good things lasted forever, would we appreciate how precious they are?

If you can't control your peanut butter, you can't expect to control your life.

When you think about it, it's weird that we have a physiological response to absurdity. We laugh at nonsense. We like it. We think it's funny.

Don't you think it's odd that we appreciate absurdity? Why would we develop that way? How does it benefit us?

You know what's weird? Day by day, nothing seems to change, but pretty soon...everything's different.
