Comedy
Comedy is a genre of fiction that consists of discourses or works intended to be humorous or amusing by inducing laughter, especially in theatre, film, stand-up comedy, television, radio, books, or any other entertainment medium. The term originated in ancient Greece: in Athenian democracy, the public opinion of voters was influenced by political satire performed by comic poets in theaters. The theatrical genre of Greek comedy can be described as a dramatic performance pitting two groups, ages, genders, or societies against each other in an amusing '' agon'' or conflict. Northrop Frye depicted these two opposing sides as a "Society of Youth" and a "Society of the Old". A revised view characterizes the essential agon of comedy as a struggle between a relatively powerless youth and the societal conventions posing obstacles to his hopes.

Jayden Masciulli
Jayden, Jadin, Jadyn, Jaiden, Jaden, and (among other variations) are Unisex given names that were rather obscure until the 1990s, when they began to appear on the U.S. Social Security Administration's list of the 1,000 most popular boys' names. A name likely of modern invention, Jayden's rank among boys in the United States was 26 , though it peaked at number 4 in 2011. Etymology The name is probably a modern invention, formed by blending the "Jay" sound from the 1970s-popular name ''Jason'' with the "den" sound from names like '' Braden'', ''Hayden'', ''Jordan'' and ''Zayden''. The biblical name Jadon (or Yadon), Hebrew for "he will judge", appears in the Bible in Nehemiah 3:7, but it is unlikely to be the source of the modern name.
