-
[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!
