I'm Beautiful
It's funny how comedians' jokes always come full circle. A few words in the beginning of the act that are slipped in here and there. Maybe, I dunno, a poem by Langston Hughes. How that no matter what anyone says to us, we're still here. And I think too many people take that for granted. I remember at one point during Dr. Mykee's presentation where we all laughed at Hector being called a taco. That's just as bad as calling him a taco, just like Furious laughed at his buddy Rick's joke. There are Hectors and Keishas out there; people who are the butt of jokes. I think that more than one person was inspired by our assembly today. I know I was.
