Blog 3.1 “20 Acts in 60 Minutes”
When listening to each Act, I was more drawn to the short, sweet, and funny ones. When it comes to hearing stories, I always feel uncomfortable listening to sad stories. I like hearing funny ones and having a god laugh. I also like to hear stories that I can definitely relate to which causes me to laugh even more. Although, all the Acts were great, these three stuck out to me and triggered some kind of happy emotion.
Act 8, The Greatest Dog Name in the World– “I wanted to name him Pasta.” This was probably the funniest name I’ve ever heard. This story is one I can definitely relate to. The fact that these children compromised of Pasta Batman is great. This story gives you a vivid picture of the relationship between these brothers. They bicker over gum-balls and dog names. I honestly felt that this was the greatest dog name in the world.
Act 9, Of Dogs and Men– This story was short and sweet, and yet another story I can relate to. It made me laugh because there is a correlation between dogs and men, well to women there are. For the man to allow his wife to put a collar on him and yank him is hilarious. It also relates to the phrase, “Keep him on a leash,” and that was exactly what she did!
Act 16, That One Guy at the Office– Matt, the guy who sits by the printer. I found it amusing that being that he sits by the printer, people find a correlation between him and the printer. Sadly, Matt had no idea about anything regarding the printer. I found it hilarious that the only conversations he has with his coworkers regard the printer. He has been there more than a year and no one even knows his name. This is ANOTHER story I relate to because at my current job I am referred to as “the girl with the face.” I know how it feels Matt.
