I was so awful. I would make fun of kids who didn't deserve to get made fun of. I was just mean, when I was really young. You don't realize that you don't have to be mean to be funny. But, it was something that I was just able to grow into.” PeopleKnowsMeanMadeUseKidsAbleYoungFunGrowsRealizingLaughingKnow HowDeserveAwfulMaking People LaughSuperpower Author:Nick Swardson
