life can be cruel some times

Yes, we are faced with the sine wave of life, laugh now and cry later. Also cry now, and laugh later. Continuous good and perfect conditions presently appear to be elusive, despite all our good efforts. But there is hope.

Telling the best joke with perfect timing and nobody laughs should honestly generate questions like: (1) Is the joke the best? (2) Is the timing perfect? (3) What are the prevailing conditions when the joke was released?

it can really be frustrating and embarrassing
