[pH-1] Among your friend groups,
Were you guys that "funny person" in the group?
Or were you known to be the clown.
The jokester.
[Ashley] Yeah..
[pH-1] You were??
[Ashley] Yeah.
[Peniel] Whaaat?
[pH-1] Nooo.
[Ashley] I'm serious.
[Peniel] With what sense of humor?
[pH-1] Did they laugh with you, or at you?
[Peniel] Yeah, yeah.
[Ashley] I think they laughed at me..
Cuz I would always just make a fool out of myself.
Whether it's like dancing silly-
[Peniel] Self detrimental jokes.
[Ashley] Yeah.. and then-
No but they would always count on me to like..
"Yo go out there, do something funny"
[pH-1] Noo.
[Ashley] Okay, they were laughing at me. Nevermind.
[pH-1] Go out there. Make a joke.
[Peniel] Right now, show us something funny.
[Ashley] Stop I can't do it if you put me on the spot.
[Peniel] You said they counted on you!
You just let your friends down.
[Ashley] No, but we were close. That's why.
[Peniel] Oh, okay we're not close I guess.
That's cool.
[pH-1] I can't imagine Ashley being like, the clown.
[Peniel] Funny?
[pH-1] Yeah, or funny.
I don't know like.
[Peniel] Look at this. You're taking yourself seriously.
[pH-1] There's a subtle difference.
We might find you funny. Or things you say..
You know funny or quirky.
But, it's not like you're the jokester.
[Ashley] Yeah..
[pH-1] You know what I mean?
[Peniel] Why did you become so serious?
[Ashley] I understand..
[pH-1] I wanna be funny.
[Ashley] Yeah, i wanna be funny.
[Peniel] "How to be funny 101"
[Ashley] No I think that's like a talent that-
[pH-1] Yeah, some people don't even have to try to be funny.
They're just funny by nature.
Like just by looking at them-
[Peniel & Ashley] By looking at them??
[Peniel] It's like "nice to meet you"
[pH-1] No, there are certain people that say..
Non-funny sentences but it's like still funny.
[Ashley] Oh my god, you know who's like that in the Korean
entertainment world?
Tak jae hoon.
[pH-1] Yeah I was about to say.
[Ashley] Tak jae hoon is so funny.
Like I can just watch clips of him for hours.
[Peniel] Keep talking let me look him up.
[pH-1] He's that type of guy that just has that vibe.
[Ashley] Yeah.
[pH-1] Like some people are naturally funny.
[Peniel] Dude what the f**k??
[BM] Hey.
[Ashley] Where did you come from?
[BM] You guys didn't see me here?
I've been here the whole time.
What are you talking about?
[Peniel] I didn't notice you.
[BM] Speaking of funny..
[Peniel] We summoned him.
[pH-1] The funny god.
[BM] Yeah, someone called me? I'm here, I'm here.
[Peniel] We're talking about humor.
We were establishing that Ashley is not funny.
[Ashley] Matthew do you think I'm funny?
[BM] You? Absolutely..
Not.
I'm so sorry Ashley.
Hey, you have your funny moments!
But are you a funny person?
No.
[pH-1] She was saying how she was the clown in her group.
[BM] Oh, you were?
[Peniel] No, so we were establishing once again how she was just
getting clowned on.
[BM] Oh, okay okay.
[Ashley] Okay, fine.
[Peniel] He was like "wait were you making people laugh,
Or were they laughing at you?"
Big difference.
[BM] Now you know, Ashley.
[Ashley] Yes now I know.
[Peniel] It's okay, it's okay. Do you think you're funny?
[BM] Sometimes.
Not all the time.
I'm funnier than Ashley.
[Peniel] That's all that matters.
[BM] Yeah.
[Peniel] We were talking about how like. What's it called?
Some people are just like born naturally funny.
They could-
Two people could say the same line.
But one is not funny and one person is funny.
[BM] You who's really really funny?
My member is really funny.
Like he'll talk to people right
And people just look at his like eyes and just like.
You know what I mean? You know how some people have that?
You're just anticipating something funny from them.
Every time they say something you just-
He's like that. So he'll tell these jokes right.
And he'll make everyone laugh.
We'll be in a crowd of like 12 people having a drink or something.
He's just the life of the party. He's making everyone laugh right.
And that sh*t is so funny to me.
I'm just like dang I gotta go tell this somewhere else.
I try to use it and I'm there at my little circle right.
I say it and everyone is just like..
"Uh-huh"
I'm just like "that sh*t wasn't funny to you?"
They are like "I guess like if you think about it like that"
I'm like damn I suck at this.
[pH-1] Yeah that's a poor execution.
[BM] Yeah, I know.
J.Seph, he has the magic in his humor.
[Peniel] Execution is definitely important.
[pH-1] Also, timing is really important.
That little paus in between.
[Peniel] For sure.
[BM] My dad is pretty funny.
[Ashley] My parents are not funny.
So I get it..
[Peniel] It all makes sense now.
[BM] She calls her mom after like "mom why are you not funny?"
[Peniel] It just clicked to her she's like "oh, okay i see"
[Ashley] They have funny moments like I do.
But they're generally not funny.
[BM] Are you making fun of them when they have their funny moments usually?
[Peniel] When they have their funny moments, are you laughing with them or at them?
[BM] Cuz if so, it all makes sense even more.
[Ashley] I don't wanna answer.
[Peniel] Yeah it's definitely my parents. And then I feel like..
Stuff you watch growing up too.
Like if you think like comedians.
If you think this comedian is funny then you'll kinda-
Your attitude will start trying to be like them.
Trying to be more funny like them and stuff when you're younger.
[pH-1] I think we all share a similar sense of humor. Like codes.
Because we grew up in a similar generation.
[BM] We watched a lot of the similar stuff too.
[Ashley] I think I figured out why. I was thinking and the reason-
[Peniel] Is that why you were so quiet the entire time?
You were thinking?
[BM] Yeah put like math equations above her head.
[Peniel] I was like "she is not talking today. what is wrong with her?"
[Ashley] The reason why- You know how I said my humor code-
Or people think I'm funny when I'm like moving my body.
Or like using my facial expressions.
I think it's cuz I grew up watching like "gag concert".
The Korean gag shows.
Yeah, it was like slapstick.
I remember laughing my ass off like peeing my pants because..
There was this corner-
[Peniel] Wait hold on what?
[Ashley] There were these two guys in complete black leotards.
And they had their nostrils drawn black to make it look bigger.
And they they would- Their thing was just.
And I swear I was watching that and my brother and I were dying!
And I just thought that was so funny.
But then if I look back now, I'm like why is this so funny?
But maybe because I grew up watching that
I felt like I had to move my body in order to be funny.
[BM] Did you ever impersonate that like draw your nostrils?
[Ashley] I did.
[BM] You did?
[Peniel] You drew your nostrils like?
[Ashley] Yes.
[Peniel] And you did "ji ji ri ji"
[Ashley] Yes, it's so funny.
[Peniel] And you wore a black leotard too?
[Ashley] No, just my nostrils.
[Peniel] Oh okay. And where did you do this?
[pH-1] By yourself.. [Ashley] In front of my friends.
Yes I practiced in the mirror but.
[Peniel] You were with your friends and you're like "hold on I'll be right back"
And you go to the bathroom and [draws on nostrils] and you come out.
[Ashley] Do you know what I'm talking about though?
[Peniel] No idea.
[Ashley] You're pretty good!
[Peniel] What is this from?
[Ashley] It's from "people looking for a laugh"
[Peniel] Okay.
[BM] I need to find that clip.
[Peniel] Me too. What do you type in? "ji ji ri ri"?
[Ashley] I forgot their corner name. I'll find it and send it to you.
[Peniel] Okay.
[BM] I'll pay money to see you do that again.
[Peniel] With the black leotard and the nostrils. The whole set.
[BM] I'll pay triple to see you do it with her.
[Peniel] I'll do it. How much am I getting paid?
I'll do it for free right now!
[Ashley] I don't think I could be friends or be in a relationship with someone who doesn't
[BM] Have a sense of humor?
[Ashley] Yeah.
[pH-1] Almost like a deal breaker too right?
[BM] Yeah, definitely.
[Peniel] Cuz sometimes I'll be joking right.
And then all of a sudden they're just like.
"Why would you say that?"
And they get all serious. I'm like it was a joke... Calm down.
Especially if it's like a relationship.
Such a turn off.
[pH-1] Yeah.
[Peniel] Friends too cuz I feel like-
I'm not a serious person.
So I feel like my friends gotta have similar humor code.
Otherwise I'll just go "hah..."
[BM] Awkward moment.
[Peniel] Imma go find a different group of friends.
[BM] Ayo where my funny people at?
[pH-1] All my funny people, assemble!
That's the call.
[Peniel] You just see Ashley coming out of a bush like.
I'm like "oh sh*t!"
[BM] She got her nostrils all flaring out too.
[Peniel] Sh*t you're not funny! Where my people-
[Ashley] Okay, enough!
