The other day, I went with a meetup group to see "Drag Queen Bingo". Although it was a pleasant diversion, something was lacking for me. No, it is not because I am a biological male wearing a dress. But it's likely to be caused by the humor not entertaining me.
As I get older, it's much harder to get me to laugh. For the most part, it's a case of none of these jokes seeming fresh. I get a bigger kick out of old Borscht Belt humor in "Old Jews Telling Jokes." Several years ago, a former girlfriend (not XGFJ) and I saw an Off-Broadway presentation of this humor, and had a great time. Most of these jokes are timeless, and they still can make people laugh with their whole bodies. (And I'll bet that some people peed themselves laughing....)
Sometime soon, I plan to take RQS to see a regional presentation of these jokes, and expect these jokes will make us laugh as much as they did for our parents' generation. Much better than seeing a Drag Queen make forgettable jokes - even if the Drag Queen is very friendly.
