    “Hold up, I got a good GIF for this joke”

  • Jun 27, 2020

    making inside jokes with friends around you

    you should also go out a lot with established friends so you can have experiences that you can talk about

    and treat it less like standup and let the back and forth dynamic of conversation build up the humor

    You just gotta be comfortable with saying s*** you think gonna be funny. Not every joke is gonna land. Like someone else said though, don’t ask us bruh, none of us funny like that. You see the same 3 jokes repeated on this site constantly, none of us have any good material

    This tbh, I feel like being funny comes naturally. Ngl tho when you pull a joke and nobody laughs you gotta find out a way to rebound that s***. 😂🤣

    Say less and wait for an opening. Follow your instincts and don't try too hard. You'll be known as a funny person if a higher ratio of things you say is actually funny. Nobody likes a cringy person who is always trying for a laugh.

    If you say something and it just dies, get used to the feeling and learn to play it off. That's going to happen and really clever people are good at flipping it into something else.

    I think Im funnier irl then on here cuz I sometimes dont get the humor on this site

    Basically what helps is understanding that people have different senses of humor, someone can have very dry sarcastic sense of humor or more goofy and random,or very dark etc.

    Also important is understanding the dynamic between different people, are they careful not to hurt each others feelings or do they really go in on eachother. Once you kinda get a feel for that the next step is just to try, just say what you think is funny based on the context and situation you are in.

    If the joke doesnt hit just take it on the chin and move on, but like others said dont try too hard because otherwise the conversation will feel forced and not natural.

    Some people are more naturally funny then others but its like anything in life just practice and you will get better at it

    Good & bad jokes come from the same place. You just gotta throw s*** out there.

    your advice is basically what I was trying to say in less words. I remember I was watching Aries Spears standup and he made a joke that didnt hit, he waited til the crowd got all silent and he said something like "Fuck yall idgaf, funny to me'' then that got a few laughs again and then he moved on to the next. I think thats really the mentality you should have about it

    Be aware
    And also cant really give a f*** about other people reactions, just be natural. If you can tell someone really thinks theyre funny it naturally comes off funnier.
