Humor Can Be Uncomfortable

As one who sometimes struggles with humor, I sympathize with the Vice President and his recent faux pas regarding West Virginia. Some folks just think and operate in a different world than most. We see humor where others don't and we fail to see it where everyone else deems it obvious. I applaud the VP for stepping out of his comfort zone and making the attempt. I fear the result of this episode will be his further avoidance of humor for fear of the backlash. Being a pariah can be difficult.
