As Leo Harold was socializing with a new group of people, he realized his status as the group’s funniest man had been taken over by Benjamin Sanders, the new funniest guy around and “major asshole” according to Harold.

“Who the hell does he think he is, constantly making jokes trying to get external validation from people?”, said Harold, who was doing the exact same thing until he realized he wasn’t quite as funny as his new arch nemesis.

“We get it, you’re a perfect mixture of cheekiness, self-deprecation and acerbic social commentary, you don’t have to shove it in everyone’s face every time you open your mouth. It’s like that guy thinks he’s better than me just because he gets more laughs per minute than I do.”

Sources reported that despite their differences, Harold and Sanders eventually became friends as they joined forces to hate another man who suddenly established himself as the funniest guy in the whole goddamn bar.
