Definitely Marco. I normally try to find humor in any situation, and if there isn't any, I try to inject some in if there's a way without it being tactless. That's because I realize what a dark place the world can be at times, like Marco does, but who wouldn't rather laugh than focus on all that mess?
To quote Mikey from a TMNT comic on the same ideal - "I figure, if people are laughing, they can't be fighting."
