I don't think any of them are better than the other in the long run. I wanted to say Mascot, but I have a friend who played that role to the point of doing stand up comedy for quite a while. When he couldn't keep the mask on any longer, he turned to Xanax around the age of 50. He has 5 years of sobriety now and cracks jokes a lot less than he used to. He's almost like a completely different person and I'm enjoying getting to know him again
