laughing people track
Most of the laugh tracks on television were recorded in the early 1950’s. These days, most of the people you hear laughing are dead.
children laughing bird
We hear the ambient noise of children singing. We hear lions and tigers roar. Hyenas laugh. Some jungle bird or howler monkey declares its existence, screeching a maniac's gibberish. Our entire world, always doing battle against the silence and obscurity of death.
dope laughing cry
Why is it you feel like a dope if you laugh alone, but that's usually how you end up crying?
cake laughing would-be
No matter what else you came up against, if you could smile and laugh while a monkey did you with chestnuts in a dank concrete basement while somebody took pictures, well, any other situation would be a piece of cake
laughing people these-days
These days, most of the people you hear laughing are dead.
laughing people way
Sometimes the very best way to deal with unpleasant things is to depict them in ways that allow people to laugh at them and destroy the power of unsayable things, rather than refusing to acknowledge them.
laughing challenges pace
The only place where you can really surprise or shock the reader, or make someone laugh, is on the lower righthand corner - the very last panel - so as you turn the page, the payoff is in the upper lefthand panel. To pace every story so that there's a setup and a payoff at the page turn was a huge challenge; it's a part of the medium and you really have to learn what can be done in the medium.
life laughing inspire
Everything is funnier in retrospect, funnier and prettier and cooler. You can laugh at anything from far enough away.
heart laughing stories
A good story should make you laugh, and a moment later break your heart.
exist germs god people
Arguing that God doesn't exist would be like people in the 10th century arguing that germs and microbes didn't exist because they couldn't see them.
apostle escape follow hard running
Every apostle or disciple, as much as they're running to follow their savior- they're running just as hard to escape something else.
people stuff wild
People say I make up wild stories. But all I have to do is write down stuff that really happens.
characters third
The third person allows characters to really attack themselves. We all do this - attack ourselves - every hour of our lives.
crave forget matter sex
The thing about sex is no matter how much you crave it, you can forget it.
