I love humor. I love jokes and laughing and watching videos of babies covered in peanut butter. Recently though, I have noticed a slightly disturbing trend in social media. Humor now seems like a contest between who can make fun of someone in the most unique way.
Someone in the media that refuses to operate that way is Ellen Degeneres. Ellen is hilarious, but never at other people's expense. I love how kind she is.
The other day I was doing what I always do. Watching YouTube videos of Ellen interviewing inspirational people and doing inspirational things, and I got caught in what I like to call an "Ellen Wormhole."
I probably watched about four hours of Ellen before I realized that it was 2 A.M. and I had school in six hours.
It was awesome though because I went to bed feeling happy, inspired even. When I see people doing kind things and promoting pure and unadulterated happiness I feel good. I hope that everyone can feel like this at least once a day.
This clip shows that Ellen is the bomb. Also if you've never seen Kate McKinnon on SLN you need to watch her. She is hilarious. Hopefully you can try to find your own "Ellen." Because this one is taken. By me.
