Never Stop Enjoying

 2. So, Why does it seem that humor in America has fallen by the wayside?

Some people think humor in America has changed a lot because society itself has changed. There are a few reasons why it might seem like humor has fallen to the wayside:

·         People are more careful now: With the internet and social media, what you say can be seen by lots of people very quickly. People are more aware of how their words can hurt others or be misunderstood. This makes some folks careful about what jokes they tell or laugh at, especially if the humor could upset someone.

·         Different ideas about what's funny: America is full of people from all kinds of backgrounds, and everyone has their own idea of what's funny. What makes one person laugh might not be funny to someone else. Because of this, humor that tries to include everyone might seem less bold or edgy.

·         Serious times: When there are a lot of serious things happening in the world, like political issues or health crises, it can make humor seem less important. People might focus more on the big, serious stuff and less on finding things to laugh about.

·         Changing entertainment: The way we find humor has changed. Instead of just TV shows, movies, and stand-up comedy, now there are memes, short videos, and social media posts. Some people think these new kinds of humor aren't as deep or meaningful as older forms.

 But it's not all gloomy! People still love to laugh, and humor is everywhere – it might just look a little different than it used to. Comedians and writers are finding new ways to make people laugh, keeping in mind all these changes in the world. So, even if it seems like humor is less common, it's just changing to match the times.
