Asians are NOT unfunny

edited May 2011 in Arts & Writings
I'm posting this article with the hope that people can see humor as something more than a silly pastime. True, many comedians are crude and take the art of humor down an unskillful path but skillful humor can unify people of different cultures. Or at least make them more comfortable with each other and I think the world would benefit from it.
