Just don’t be Bill Murray (Zombieland, a GREAT movie, IMHO)
Also, The Dead Don't Die. Weird to the point of being surreal, but some weirdness hits just right. The only pity is seeing Mr. Murray almost unable to move his neck and back (see, I brought it back around to Growing Old... )
I lunched with someone on Saturday who lamented that Bill Murray isn't funny anymore. We may never have lunch together again. Ridicule my clothes, tell me I'm a political idiot, but sugar in my gas tank -- but Bill Murray is still effortlessly funny.
He even brought humor to his role in St Vincent (essentially a retelling of Gran Torino, except Bill Murray instead of Clint Eastwood and he drives a mid-80s Chrysler Town & Country instead of a Gran Torino). He is incapable of not being funny.

Well, what constitutes funny changes with generations and with the media used to entertain. 50 years ago would we have had so much people doing stunts and going down without TicTok and things like that??

50 years ago I was a teenager and I remember more than my share of 'hold my beer (soda pop) and watch this' among me and my friends. Just ever so grateful no video record exists to remind me.
Yes, probably more now but at another level it has ever been thus.mikephillips

Oh yea, we did dumb stuff too, but I don't think we've have done it simply to post to the world like so many do these days. Who'd have wanted their parents to know what you spent Friday night after the local football game doing....

My Dad loved her! He had a few of her records!

Several years ago, I read that the Libary of Congress had an unbelievable number (don't recall how big) of her jokes and were looking for a volunteer curator.
