Great Q and Great advice.

Temujin: It's all just an appearance to mind.

I try to keep reminding myself that I am appealing to a viewer's/reader's subtle mind when trying to form a 'system'. I try to contemplate for example that in the conscious mind, we (all of us) ramble erratically whether trying to speak or write or explain or criticise and so on.
So it's pointless being too analytical.
But I try to think in such things as understanding that at the level of the subtle mind, we share many things - we have compassion, we fear fear, we respect justice, we wish for harmony.

You say that one of the conventions of the comedy genre is that "nobody gets hurt," yet the creators of South Park seem to cross this line regularly. How do they get away with it?
