When you’re young, it’s an easy trap to fall into- “This hurts. I must have done something to it. Oh, yeah, I fell off a skateboard. I rode into a tree…” That sort of thing. Then, you get a few years on you, and things just start to hurt for no damn reason. Or at least not a cool, fun, reason. “Oh, I have a headache because the flexibility of my corneas suddenly diminished because evolution deems that I should be sabre toothed tiger poo by now and it doesn’t matter if my eyes falter and my knees sound like bubble wrap.”
Not cool.
Of course people are proud of little bronze -colored plastic cups on faux-wooden stands. You EARN those things.

Anyone who’s read a lot of Hubris, or even The Buckets knows that my favorite form of humor is when characters get upset about behavior that they themselves exhibit. Of course, if the characters seem to be doing it sarcastically, does that ADD a layer to the gag, or remove one? Oh, the existential angst of writing humor. Time to do a fart joke next.
