Song quote-response

Love is...
by Bo Burnham

"...Because love is taking that dive then getting really comfortable and peeing in the pool and
love is a real life porn, minus all the stuff that makes porn cool and
love is a homeless guy searching for treasure in the middle of the rain and finding a bag of gold coins and slowly finding out they're all filled with chocolate and even though he's heartbroken he can't complain 'cause he was hungry in the first place." (Burnham)

This song makes me laugh. I love it because no two people describe love in the same way. Some say it's a sickness in your blood. Some say it's the best thing ever, some say the worst. Some say it's a cage, others say it sets you free. Bo Burnham says that "love is all about whistles." Who am I to complain?

I also love it because it's one of the few songs about love that make it fun. Yeah, love is like having your favorite meal for breakfast, lunch...and dinner...of every day of the rest of your life!!!!! Is that a good thing? Or should we all just laugh about it and live the best way we can, loving someone the best way we know how?
