In the beginning there was laughter

 Over the last few years God has pried me away from the comforts of my home and shown me, through several different cultures, the glitch in the matrix I live in. It has opened my eyes to the good and not so good elements of my culture and personal life style. My response is all too often like Hollywood cringe comedy.

cringe comedy:

TV shows where the humor mostly comes from placing characters in the most embarrassing situations possible or having them say the most awkward or offensive thing possible at all times. Often uses documentary feel to heighten the naturalism and increase the cringe, or has actors in character interacting with an unsuspecting public. Comedy you have to watch through the gaps between your fingers.

Often this is mollified by the characters being oblivious to the embarrassment they should be feeling. Sometimes though, all the characters are acutely aware of their humiliation, which can make it so much worse.

The following is a collection of stories you should never share with anyone, so why not put it on the World Wide Web.
