Carlin was able to do both at the same time. 👍

If you can get them laughing, you can get them thinking. It's scientifically proven. Once you can get someone to laugh, they are vulnerable. It breaks done the walls and you can get inside and make them think. #sciencebitches

Sold. Swayed my vote!

I'm just a guy that loves to learn. Make me laugh. I dare you.

Level 8

I made a customer laugh yesterday. He was waiting for his 2 sandwiches (10:30 am, we just opened) and I apologized for the 10 minute wait. He was nice and said, "It's okay, I'm not in a hurry." I said, "Good, cause neither are we." Lol. I didn't even realize I made a joke. It just came out of my mouth. I said it nicely too.

No Vote. I rather leave them satisfied. I am not in junior high anymore.

Level 9

Both! That is the essence of good comedy...a la George Carlin st al

Level 8

If they can't think or laugh just leave'em.

Level 7

I voted to laugh but prefer to do both. Make 'em think but do so in a way that makes 'em come back for more.

Level 9

People like Train and Carlin id both at the same time. That is what made them so great.

Let them think about what they could have done differently.

Level 7

Both....of course.
Or at least leave them wondering what just happened.

Level 5

Making them laugh helps them think about it later.

Level 9

Lines of thought seem to last longer than laughter.

Level 6

If you can't make me do both, I have no time for you.

Level 7

I'm not clever enough to do the second, so I'd better be good at the first.

Level 7

My justification is Mind>body

Level 8

Have the ability to laugh about your learning.

Level 9

Can't it be both?

Level 9

Laughing for me. Laughing always makes people feel good. Thinking not so much.
