Stand up comedy has been my favorite form of entertainment for a while. I will watch YouTube videos for hours and laugh until my ribs hurts. My only issue is that some of the big names in comedy will say some pretty inappropriate things. They may be really funny, but inappropriate.
I was on the lookout for some videos that could make my family and friends laugh without all the perverted humor. This was kind of difficult, but I did have some success.
God wants us to laugh and enjoy life. Proverbs 17:22- "A joyful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones." It is encouraging that, even as a Christian, I can enjoy a good stand up comedy show and keep my mind out of the gutter.

My craziness is about to take flight with Mockingjay wings.
BECAUSE MOCKINGJAY PART TWO IS COMING OUT!!
On Friday, November 20th, the fourth and final movie in the Hunger Games Series will be released in theatres.
I have been a fan since 7th grade, when I got my hands on the first book. This was one of the first fiction books to draw me in and actually make me feel something (I didn't read the Harry Potter Series until later *winky face*). After I finished the first book, I forced my friend to read it. She wasn't much of a reader at the time, so I told her, "just read to page 16. I promise you'll be hooked!" She didn't believe me but she promised me she would read. 16 pages later, she came to me saying "you were right. oooooooooooohhhhhhhhhh mmmmmmyyyyyyy ggggggoooosssssshhhhh," in a typical 7th grade voice.
We both read all three books in less than a month and would have detailed and dramatically expressive lunch room conversations about what we have read. I am not exaggerating when I say that we had the whole lunch table actively engaged in Hunger Games discussion for a good 4 months. EVERY DAY!!!
For those of you who don't know about the Hunger Games Trilogy, they are dystopian novels written by Suzanne Collins. The three books are:
1. Hunger Games
2. Catching Fire
3. Mockingjay
Basically, the main character, Katniss Everdeen, fights against her horrible government while deciphering teenage emotions, all beginning with a sacrifice for her sister.
I really encourage you to read the books. The movies are great (except the first one, but don't get me started on that) but the books are soooooo much better!! I can't wait untill Friday!!!
And on an unrelated note... I just had to post this picture.... cause it's truth.
