I don't mean to sound racist or stereotypical but you can try a homeless shelter.I used to volunteer at one back in the day and talked with many outrageously funny black homeless dudes there! Some were even more outrageous then Larry's friend.

It's not like their stumbling around drunk all day,most are just in a fucked situation trying to get back on their feet and would gladly do it for 200 bucks.All you gotta do is walk in there and listen.

A person who has dealt with a lot of shit during his or her life (whether they had the worst of luck or they managed to bring it upon themselves) tends to have a surprisingly strong sense of humor. I don't know if it's an emotional response to the things that have happened, or if it's a survival mechanism that allows a person to get through another day, but it's not uncommon in those who have struggled. Charles Bukowski was a loser, a drunk who was often beaten in the streets, and a mad poet, but he was a funny son of a bitch.

That's probably why you see that in homeless people. Life is fucked, they own nothing in a society where people are most often judged by the car they drive, the objects they own, they're sleeping under a blanket of piss-smelling newspapers and they get robbed of the few bucks they manage to find. The only options are to laugh or find a tall bridge.

I personally think it's a survival mechanism but yeah like you said laugh or die.
