Daily Blog 3/19/18

In class today we talk about the different theories of comedy and how we use them we also talked about chaos which is a Lack of order, complications, confusion and cosmos which is
a sense of unity, harmony. The different theories of comedy
1. Superiority Theory- laughing when bad things happen to other people to feel better about ourselves

2.The Incongruity Theory -  when a stereotype does not fit, opposite of what you expect to happen happens

3.Relief Theory- Making jokes from social taboos and niece topics
we also watched clips from popular show like the office to show the different types of comedies

Learning about different types of jokes and different ways of doing comedy is important because life would be meaningless with out a little bit of joking
