You know you have a weird job when 1 failure is catastrophic and 2 is systemic.

high laughs 1982

So you're coming home from school and stop at a friends house.
You are either doing bongs or jonesing for bongs.
Some days the group is feeling mellow and watch The Price is Right just for the color and because you knew the price of everything. Refrigerator, new car, or a trip to Acapulco.
Other days, you needed something more intellectual and you put on Barnaby Jones.
Cause Barnaby was better for high laughs than Rockford Files or Columbo.

Your worst days were spent staring at album covers while the music was too loud to talk. For hours...
You grew to enjoy the awkward silences for this reason. Let them float like balloons. Much of your character is based on your ability to endure things like this.
