when comedy wasn't necessarily something mean spirited, didn't
necessarily make fun of other people, wasn't obsessed with outraging
anyone, but was only intent upon being funny?

Remember when comedians wanted to laugh *with* you and not *at*
someone who wasn't around to defend themselves?

If not, let Red Skelton remind you:

Thank you, I truly enjoyed those old show take out plus the Dean Martin
Roast.
