Judy Garland was very funny!
Watch the movie JUDY for the laughter as well as for the pathos and the singing.
“People always thought I was funny. I was never funny.
You know who was truly funny? Judy Garland.
Judy Garland was funny.
She made me look like a mortician.”

Pain, of course, is relative.
Ouch!
1) A feeling of marked discomfort, a distressing sensation in a particular part of the body: “She has a severe pain in her arse, most probably due to sitting at the computer at work all day.”
“Jury duty can be quite a pain in the neck.”
“For monthly pain, Ashley downs half a bottle of Scotch.”
2) Mental suffering or distress : “During the holidays, I am plagued by the pain of listening politely to relatives pontificate on politics, religion, and squirrel virus.”
“Waiting for hours in this line at the DMV is killing me. Oh, the pain. ARRRGH!”

3) An annoying or tedious, troublesome person or thing: “Kim’s a pain. Khloe’s a pain. Kourtney’s a pain. Kris IS a royal pain.”
4) Laborious or careful efforts; assiduous care: “Great pains have been taken to cover the crimson, pulsing pimple on my nose.”
1) Cause mental or physical pain to: “It pains me to say this, but your butt looks humongous in those horizontal stripes.”
1) No pain, no gain: “Suffering is necessary in order to achieve something such as losing that last 15 pounds, getting the kids to do their homework, and finishing this blog post on deadline.”
