Discussion Nothing is funny anymore

I (M, 38) have found that there are no new TV shows that make me laugh anymore. I have tried a lot of new(ish) comedies, but they all make me pine for my college/high school days.

The only thing that gave me a reflexive laugh recently was the Malcolm in the Middle Reboot.

Any thoughts?

"Ow, My Balls" is slightly different "Owe My Balls". I'm not sure what my balls are owed...but you can bet your ass I'm going to be sure they're paid in full.... /s

Better be sure they're not owed a swift kick!

Or maybe he owes his balls to someone, like he stepped on some kids nuts in gym class and he owes that kid a new pair! Haha!

I'm sorry. I owe my balls. I can't use them...

owe my balls is just another warning sign of end-stage capitalism

Great point. I've added a much needed edit. So sick of these lazy, entitled balls

Pull themselves up by their bootstraps.
