5 Tips to Create Comedy During the Coronavirus & Coronavirus Humor


1) Laugh at the coronavirus.

*Yes this is a serious topic, and it should absolutely be treated as one. People should strictly adhere to CDC guidelines and do their part in flattening the curve. That being said, laughing at something can help make it easier to deal with, and gives one control. One shouldn't let this pandemic take more then it already has, and that includes a sense of humor.

2) Laugh at yourself.

*Don't take yourself to seriously, these are hard times, but as the old adage goes, "this too shall pass".

3) Laugh at your pets

*As I write this my brothers 85lb black lab is trying to sit on my laugh, unaware that he is no longer a puppy

4) Use your time to catch up on TV shows, or watch movies you've wanted to for awhile

*If you're like me, you've spent most your isolation watching an absurd amount of TV, for me it helps me laugh and think about different things.

5) TikTok

*For those who have TikTok, this needs no explanation.

    Patrick, I appreciated your SNL clip. I hope you know that SNL is doing a live, social-distancing version tomorrow night. During my quarantine, I have spent so much time mining for comedic gold on TikTok - glad I am not alone in that. I hope you are finding time to rest and refocus during this time, as well as laugh of course!

    I definitely agree with your 3rd tip. Spending time with your dog might be the best thing that comes out of this quarantine. I catch myself laughing at my dog constantly throughout the day. I know my dog's the biggest beneficiary from this whole Coronavirus pandemic because I spend so much time with her.

Being Home During Quarantine

I never imagined that my semester would be interrupted and I would be forced to come home. From having to switch to online classes to missing my friends and our planned social events, the whole experience has been frustrating. Although the P/NC's will undoubtedly increase my GPA, the marginal increase is not worth it. People always tell you college is the most fun of your life, and I can't help but feel cheated out of part of it.  I enjoyed being home at first, but now I'm tired of it. Being back home makes me feel like I'm back in high school with my freedom taken away. On top of that, fights with family are inevitable when we're all trapped in the same house for what seems like ages now. On a positive note, I am still a junior, so I have another year. I can't even imagine how frustrated seniors must be with this whole thing. I think TCU's reponse has been positive and I hope this whole thing blows over soon. I want, like many others, a return to norma...

Blog #2

This past Thursday I witnessed something that caused six of my friends and I to break out into uncontrollable laughter. My roommates and I were cleaning our house and putting some lights up on the walls in preparation for our fraternity mom's weekend. Our living room ceiling is double vaulted so we had to use a ladder to hang the lights. My roommate Joey was on the ladder hanging the lights, and I was unraveling and handing them to him. When we were around half way finished someone knocked on our door so Joey and I both went to answer the door. We let one of our friends in and then when we turned around our 4 month old cat was on the top of the ladder trying to, unsuccessfully, paw the hanging lights. One of us pointed it out so all six of my roommates and one of my friends were chuckling at our cat. Joey went to go back on the ladder and move the cat but before he could get to him that cat jumped through the air towards the lights. He completely missed, tumbled into the floor, a...
