17) Avoid fictional drama and tragedy like the plague. No Grey’s Anatomy, no to The Notebook, or anything that won a Pulitzer prize. You’ve got enough going on In Real Life. Comedy only.

Fiction exists to elicit emotion, and the emotion you need to express most right now is laughter.
I take this advice very seriously in my life.
