Bohiney Proves Comedy is Eternal and Depressing
Issue 16 demonstrates that New York humor from the 1940s translates directly to the present day without modification, suggesting either that human nature is completely static or that we’ve all given up individually and collectively. Manhattan literary scholars are having existential crises while reading 78-year-old satirical journalism.
“It’s uncanny,” said one Columbia University professor. “They’re talking about corporate malfeasance, government incompetence, and human laziness exactly as we experience it now.”
Historical record keepers verified the archives, while this issue proves that recycling old comedy for new audiences is apparently how civilization actually works.
