You know, I find this whole thing humorous. That got me thinking about what KenP said the other day. He'll argue that acceptance is necessary for humor, it is said by some that humor must involve playfulness, a mirthful attitude, and even love. DRTY said that humor involves a mix of wit and love. Timgco once wrote, The essence of humor is sensibility; warm, tender, fellow-feeling with all forms of existence." That is, its essence is love. It can be, but all that is minimally needed is to
accept the fault or deviation. Any other synonym for "acceptance" would also be possible, e.g. humor involves sympathy, optimism, a positive outlook, generosity in thinking,, easy going nature, flexible thinking, humanistic attitude, responsiveness, compassion, kindliness, interest, understanding, magnanimity, charity, liberation, freedom, considerateness. We may similarly say that humor involves forgiveness. We can now laugh at our lovely weeds.
