Joke book name

I finished reading the book off and on. To tell the truth, what attracted me at first was the name of this book: Don't cry when I tell a joke.

This is really a hilarious book. Uncle Yan tells stories in a playful tone. Indeed, at first, it even made me clap my table and laugh. This is indeed a joke, but there is melancholy in this joke, which is probably the only evidence that ordinary people fight against the mediocrity of this world.

Most of these books have one feature: at first, they laughed and scolded, and they were very happy, but in the end they became more sad. This can't blame the authors for "abandoning chaos", just because it is too difficult to remain optimistic and indifferent forever. It is the normal state of life to be uninhibited with a touch of sadness. Many people say I am optimistic, yes, I admit it, but people close to me know that I am an out-and-out pessimist. This is not to say that my optimism is false, but that I am free and easy about the mediocrity of this world (or my own mediocrity): screw my fate and let it go! What can you do with me? It's a big deal to start over. As long as you can eat, why not do what you should do? This optimistic and negative attitude has supported me to pass several thresholds of saying high or low.

"Unhappy things often happen in eight or nine situations, but it is no different from the speaker." Everyone's life is already unhappy, and you still bother others with your unhappy things. Who listens to your nonsense? At this time, there are probably two ways: one is to digest it silently and then continue to be optimistic; The other is to tell everyone what you are sad as a joke, and everyone will be happy together, so the depression will naturally disappear. "What's unhappy, say it to make everyone happy" is probably this method.

The first method is really not desirable. If a person digests silently, not to mention the danger of explosion, if a person goes astray and wants to be an enemy of the world or something, it will be even worse. Comparatively speaking, the second method is much safer, which can not only exercise one's nonsense ability, but also get along with others, but the trouble is that one may lose control of emotions and can't help punching the audience in the face when they say "Oh, what a stupid person" happily.

Moreover, the biggest problem of the second method is that it may cause an embarrassing situation that entertaining the public can only hurt themselves, but has to laugh with the public. This kind of mental blow may make you feel more sad than the previous unsatisfactory things.

Therefore, the actual meaning of "don't cry when I tell jokes" is "don't laugh when I tell jokes, or I will cry"
