Re: [Avid-L2] [OT] Humor: Booking An Audio Session

Well, it would have been funnier if it had actually been acted by real
people. How hard could it have been to shoot that with two people in
an office?

The main problem was that the timing sucked because no one actually
EDITED it. It actually proves how important we all are, so thanks for
that at least.

Humor is so based on performance and timing and this "short" obviously
had neither because no one performed it and it wasn't edited, so that
leaves you with the comedy equivalent of porn. No feeling. Just the
act. It was like watching a storyboard...without the story... just the
bored.
