“My way of joking is to tell the truth. It's the funniest joke in the world.”
— George Bernard Shaw
Why do I quote this?
Because truth, in today’s world, is both a confession and a rebellion.
💡 It’s a confession that truth is often so absurd and revealing, the only sane response is laughter.
💣 It’s a rebellion against a culture of filters, facades, and performances—where spin is rewarded, and authenticity is the real taboo.
Shaw wasn’t being clever—he was being revolutionary.
Humor, when fused with truth, becomes a force of change.
It disarms. It exposes. It lands—because we recognize ourselves in it.
🔎 We live in an age where:
We worship truth in theory but punish it in practice.
We reward noise over nuance.
We scroll past sincerity in favor of spectacle.
And in this landscape, the simplest truth sounds like comedy.
Because we’ve forgotten what real honesty sounds like.
🔥 How to Live the Truth Like Shaw:
✅ Tell the truth playfully, not cruelly.
✅ Laugh first—then reflect.
✅ Use humor to build bridges, not walls.
✅ Be unapologetically honest—in a way that heals.
✅ Never stop laughing at the absurdity of it all.
Because if you can laugh at the truth, you’ve already reclaimed your power.
So today, I invite you to do what Shaw did:
Speak the truth with a grin.
Let people laugh—not because it’s a joke… but because it’s finally real.
🧠 Let’s make truth cool again.
