Yeah I’ll just go laugh beside my friend’s coffin and change that narrative … good intentions but this is a dumb saying

You absolutely have a point here, but this doesn’t mean that the saying is wrong in all circumstances. It can, and has worked for me (though the reason I cried is nowhere near the pain you experienced - which is why it’s worked for me)

True, same thing would also be very weird to just go to a hospital, hang out there and laugh, very condescending with people there.

Very true, it’s obvious this quote was written by someone who’s never really had to grieve over the loss of someone close

No, no you don't get. You are going to change the narrative. Go ahead and laugh manically in a hospital or in a funeral it will look like this is something you planned , you will probably go to jail and start laughing there and it will look like that was also something you wanted and planned. People will stay away from you you will be lonely and then you will start laugh at everything, laugh forever because the life is a joke muhahaha... (So yeah he basically wants to create an army of Joker's, by changing the narrative)
