Remember people comedians aren't all good people or come from good situations,their sad,depressed,hurt,angery,foolish,mean,joyful,cheerful,committed,quitters,winners,sheltered,reserved and losers all rolled up into one and it depends on what day it is,the circumstances,what needs to be done ,all depends on what their going to pull out of their bag of tricks.
Like a magician,a liar,a manipulater,a story teller and it's across the board and it's alot of them from Jackie Gleason,Richard Pryor,Rodney Dangerfield,Flip Wilson...ect,not all but a good majority of them have questionable backgrounds and behavior but one thing they have in common is entertaining and being funny to other's.
If we ever were alone with any of them,we might not like them
