    10. “So a guy walks into a bar….” This is a real answer, not a cop-out. I’m worried in a heaven there’s no humor because there’s no tragedy (the source of all deep and relevant humor) to laugh at and no need to laugh because there’s no pain that needs soothing. Without these contrasts, it would be like being on soma, eh?
