Lies again? Butt Of Jokes Minnesota Breastfeeding

This is really great. Im an introvert and i unconciously doing this tricks just to stay out of trouble. Just laugh whenever someones joking, go with the flow add something witty when u think of something and enjoy the rest of the conversation. When the topic runs out transition to another. If conversations taking too long says youll go to the bathroom and leave. Create excuses for later hahaha

Basically, being funny is about being likeable. Being likeable is about being honest, humble (but not scraping), generous, curious and fun. It's about seeing the absurdity of life in new and surprising ways but still having a fundamental hope underneath it all.

Good set up I used today at the doctors office with the receptionist, "Do you have any other questions?" I couldn't resist, "How do you fix a cracked pumpkin?. She, ???. With a pumpkin patch." This was T-ball.

Although I agree with these pointers for how to joke and how they land, the thing I think I am not hearing is "how do you do this in real time" cause honestly if you think about this too much or try to plan for these situations you will likely fail. The key is what your motivation is. If you go into a conversation with the intent of making people like you it will likely fail. Instead, go into every conversation with the intent on cracking a joke. Don't worry about if people like you just looking to crack a joke. If it doesn't land, then don't worry about it and try again (within reason of course). My 2 bits.

Practice makes perfect too, and you're totally right about making the focus the joke. I used to be a tourguide, and I also worked the ticket booth before the tours. I decided both as an ice breaker, and because I wanted to get better at wordplay, I would make puns of people's names. This might sound annoying, but people absolutely loved it, and i started a lot of conversation this way or got people laughing before we started my tour. It started out pretty difficult to come up with the puns, but after a week or two, someone would hand me their credit card and it would take me 2 seconds to think of something, and it also made other puns easier because suddenly my brain was on the lookout for that kind of wordplay. I feel like these actors get a lot of practice time in interviews, so their real-time whit gets a lot of exercise. Absurd humor like Ryan uses about calling his parents cannibals is the same way, it gets easier to think of jokes that his that right balance of absurdity and good humor when you do it often.

You answered your question on how to do it in real time, with your last sentence. You just gotta practice: the more you put your self out there and practice these techniques, the more effortless it will become until being charismatic is just who you are. Kinda like riding a bike, at first you have to think about every move and you will fail, bit you learn from failure and eventually you won't even have to think about it anymore, it just comes naturally.

These are like the things people know, but also don't know. Like gravity or oxygen. Nearly everyone is experiencing then at all times, but very few people actually look deeper into it, point it out, and explain it.

The first technique is my go to every time and it works like a charm every single time. I just think "what would be the worst answer possible?" and go with that.

It’s funny to recognize how we already do some of these things, without consciously thinking. It occurs to me that I say “what could go wrong?” dismissively like the proposed plan/idea (maybe my own) is just…fine, and NOT filled with obvious risks or blowback

This actually happened. I just finished completing a job for a body shop and needed a RO number for my invoice. I asked the service writer for it. He went to look it up and said, “I can’t even remember the guys name”. I said jokingly “ Lipshiitz?” And he responded without hesitation “no, but my butt whistles”. I laughed about that for days.

This was a "Zero phone-checks" video. So good!!

Hi. The essence of humour is in taking people's minds in a different direction than they'd expect. Their laughter is like the air escaping from a balloon that has been popped. Cheers, P.R.

No matter how many of these videos I watch I'll never be as cool as Tim Olyphant on Conan in a Tshirt, shorts and flip-flops.

When I crack a joke and people start laughing, I usually say, "Oh, you think I'm joking?" And continue a little bit, and it has always got people cracking up even more. Just be sure for the joke to be so absured there's no chance you'd be possibly being serious.

This is why I thank God that there is Internet! I needed this all my life!!

I use compliments with a very serious tone then turn the situation into a funny one, works every time. The idea is to create tension then relief

This video is an inspiration to search for 'laughter in movie scenes'. It's cool to see all the laugh in different genre movies.

This channel is consistently awesome. Doing God's work:)

Appreciate how simply these types of jokes are laid out.

Very funny thanks.

I guess my Brother and I "Trained each other" because we both do this constantly, whether it is conversation between us, or Us with others, or when we are 'on our own'... Complete mis-direction, or sometimes 'self-defecating', or twisting something up, or playing on the LITERAL meaning, or alternate meaning, rather than the INTENDED meaning. Even in the driest, most 'business type' situations, I was in "Sales" or Retail management, most of my career... and I did this with Customers to reduce the stress and feelings that I was trying to convince them to do something they were uncomfortable about.

Very cool. 👍

Double down on someone else’s joke can easily go south, unless you’re really funny.

I only have two friends that will crack me up doubling down on my joke, but these guys are the kind that will have you in tears. most people can’t seem to pull it off.

I said 'Hmm, that's a tough question, i don't really remember which i used the most, but i'd say water did the job, just try cold water, it made me go pale everytime i use it during the morning before leaving my house.' - they completely broke into laughters.

Not exactly the same but I've got a great way to start a job interview : try to find something interesting on the way to the interview, if you don't see anything, use something from a recent time and pretend you just saw it (you can admit it later if you want). When you come in, especially if you're late (which you shouldn't be) start talking about this interesting thing at the first chance you get. Chances are the interviewer will at least want to hear you out for a few moments and at best let you talk for a couple of minutes. Now, you're much less nervous about talking, you feel some control, you seem a little interesting, you make THEM have to reconfigure and maybe they like you a little.
