All comedy is derived from relatable misery. Why do you think we laugh at people getting hurt and stories about misfortune?
>>
Pay attention to randomly occurring situations and things in your day-to-day life that have made people laugh, and then re-use them if they're novel enough.

You have to be a leader and question everything you see.Random shit like >>86064791 is considered funny but its not really it gives me a headache after a while.>>86064652 also makes a good point if you arent miserable and dont overthink things you cant really write good original material.

Really the same things that make a great inventor make a good comedian.
