Gallows humor
Aug 31, 2023As someone who’s quite melancholy, I get so much strength from bizarre things. I laugh at some of my saddest moments. Gallows humor is my jam. It just fits for me… When the doctor said to us, babe in arms “Oh! I think a bit of Eliza’s brain is missing” (like you do) and abruptly left the room, Roddy and I bust out laughing, it was so bizarre and shocking and the delivery so was so strange - it was funny for a moment, and that got us through that moment.
This video is just a wonderful example of telling a “sad” story in such an upside-down way… it’s still touching and also hilarious.
