The fun(ny) factor
**No, I am not a funny person.** Because of my lack of humor, I stick to the people who share the same humor as me. It's the ironic one, the bittersweet humor which makes me laugh about your own misery instead of complaining and praying for help. Rowan Atkinson is if it comes to it my favorite especially as Blackadder. The help it isn't on the way. If you want something to change you need to work for it yourself. With work, I mean honest work. Not by scamming, manipulating, abusing, and threatening others. It seems to be the trend these days and there's a reason for it. No, it's not poverty but the fact crime pays. That's the only reason. Poor people you won't meet here. With poor, I mean really poor. Those people do not have a device, no internet connection and they are not "smart" enough to be online and tell the world how great and humble they are, they do not ask for money because they need to pay their bills urgently, they don't hack you and have no time to copy-paste or translate text written by others. That poor person keeps his mouth shut. The only thing s/he has left is dignity, some pride. It's not something you are going to throw away on a fun platform because you have nothing to hide. Instead s/he tries to work, make it work, make some money to buy bread. A poor person, I mean that really poor bastard who sells the own body to stay alive, sleeps outside on the street during winters, doesn't write 6-8 articles a day. That poor bastard can be educated too because poverty can happen to all of us and believe me it's no fun although it can be fun to have them for a friend. Those who went through mountains of trouble have something in common. They are realists, no pussies, no longer feel the need to keeping up appearances. It's taking it or leave it, accept or deny, no cheating, no lies, no backstabbing. Device: mobile phone Egg timer: set at 10 minutes Prompt: title

There's more to being poor in every sense of the word. Anyone that can afford to use smartphone can't be termed poor. The factbis that it's nicer to help poor people even when they don't ask - they have their own dignity and self-consciousness, and it looks really bad to be in a position to beg, no matter how bad the condition might be.
Besides the prompt of this freewrite is "fun" I find it worse those who are really poor are not noted and forgotten. I see it everywhere around me. If you keep your mouth shut family, friends, the society forgets you. They are sure you manage especially if you are clean on you and yourself. It's what we call the "hidden poverty".
It's not right to address some countries very poor just by participating something, sometimes they do it because they want to showcase their skills or test their skills because a literal poor people cant barely afford a smartphone and do articles every day.
Where do I address a country? I am sorry but this is not about you but about me, the country I live and for your information I can hardly afford a mobile phone either.
Being born as poor isn't embrassing. I grow up being poor but we strived everyday to meet our basic needs. And fortunately we are able to survived and get a comfortable life now than before. It's on the mindset of the people if they will still remain poor.
Who says it's embarrassing? Only if you act that way, think you are worthless it is. Actually this is not about poor but about fun. A freewrite about "fun" and one thought leads to the next. 🤔
I see no problem of being poor, I was born poor and I don't want to die as poor too, but being poor is much better with a big heart. We can be rich by LOVE ❣🧡
To be honest I do not care if I die poor as long as I can die (preferable) where I like and am free. It's the only thing I want, my freedom. I do not care about materials, fancy clothes, jewelry or expensive food.
Being funny also includes being able to recognize comedy. If you appreciate Rowan Atkinson's work, you're a funny person.
I am not sure if many would call Rowan Atkinson funny. I agree with him his kind of humor should exist and remain, not be wiped out because some do not understand what it's about. Thanks for calling me funny. 🤪
There are people who don't find him funny? Impossible statement.
Yes, those without humor or a different kind of humor or?
Humor that differs from Rowan Atkinson isn't humor.
"humor" and "funny person" are not necessarily the same person, nor the one needs the existence of the other. Actually it is more important - for me - to have a sense of humor, that being the funny person.. Humor can be a node or a look, and needs some kind of intelligent as a receiver to get it and like it, even if you are not funny...
I enjoy watching Rowan Atkinson as Mr. Bean but I have not heard of Blackedder. It is hard to trust people, isn't it? We have beggers who claim they are poor and in need of donation but they are part of a syndicate that cheats people of their hard earned money by seeking pity from others.
These beggars we have too. Romanians, selling the paper for homeless people. The homeless are scared away. They easily earn 500 euro a week, arrive by car, pay no taxes and have a great villa back home.
