It worked well with The Avengers, so yeah, maybe it's good advice. I recently watched a documentary about the Russo-Ukrainian War. Russians were slaughtering civilians and bombing apartments. Even in the darkest hours of the documentary, the Ukrainian people of Mariupol, the doctors, rescuers, and civilians, never lost the ability to joke around. Maybe the humor was dark, or maybe it was just a coping mechanism, or it could be something even more Freudian or Jungian, it's hard to tell. But it's always easier to survive in the darkest, grimmest environments if you can still make jokes, or if someone tells you a joke to cheer you up.
