On the Web in particular, and in print as a rule, it's almost impossible to convey the shades of meaning and connotation necessary to get sardonic humor, sarcasm, etc. across to those not looking for it.  Text-only interfaces are a very literal medium.\n\nHere in Yahoo!Answers, sadly, a lot of people mistake nastiness for "humor" and tell the victims of their slanders that they have no sense of humor; so people come to expect that anything that can be interpreted as nastiness, was meant that way.

allowing myself to be vulnerable to another. in other words, being open and honest about myself to help someone to get to know me, warts and all. this also encourages them to be the same. listening well is more important than speaking well (tho i like to think i do both)\n\nmy sense of humor has also been a great strength for me. it has got me thru cancer, my present health problems (resulting from cancer treatments) and the bush administration. i love to laugh, but i enjoy making others laugh even more.\n\nwhat's yours?

Most of the time I have to try hard *not* to laugh.  lol  I find humor in such a wide assortment of things... and some of them aren't even supposed to be funny.  Perhaps I use humor as a way to create levity to an otherwise heavy situation.  Because you know what they say "If I don't laugh....I'm gonna cry".  And, well, crying isn't nearly as fun as laughing.  Unless of course, you laugh yourself to tears. lol  Hmmmm... did I answer your question yet?  Sheesh - I have no idea.  I guess I was born with some sort of sense of humor.... even if I am the only one who finds it amusing!

I think a guy is funny when he's just himself and he makes me laugh when he's not trying to be funny. He's just naturally funny in everyday conversations. Just be yourself. Tastes in humor are relative.

I would rather tell a funny joke. My favorite thing is the sound of laughter. To have the ability to make someone laugh is a joyful gift. You get the fulfillment of knowing that you made someone's day a little brighter. \n\nAnd to me that is a wonderful thing.

All people have different senses of humor. Some people might be completely hysterical over one thing while others don't even find it mildly amusing. Your sense of humor is an individual thing. What you laugh at or find amusing is going to depend on how you were raised, you personality, and the people you're around.\n\nIf you are blessed to be around women that have a strong sense of humor, you're very lucky. In my opinion, women tend to take themselves too seriously and don't laugh half as much as they should. Laughter is good for the soul.

In a man, effeminate or homosexual. For someone's behavior or style, it means that is exaggerated for a humorous effect.

Yes,it is possible for someone to be physically perfect,but act like a robot and not be able to comprehend humor.But on the other hand,humor is a subjective thing,I might laugh at a joke,and "get it" while my friend will say that didnt make any sense.Not everything is funny to everyone.
