Being funny won't make things difficult or odd when you are with others. But you have to know when and where to crack the joke. Will people relate to it or not?
Watch Comedy
To increase your sense of humour watch more comedies. You learn more effectively when you immerse yourself in a subject. Watch standup comedians. Listen to podcasts that amuse you. Read humorous books.
Watching stand-up and following the jokes can have you rolling out of your seat in no time. The law of attraction will help you increase your sense of humour by filtering out jokes, pickup lines and other metaphors that make people laugh.
Try To See Things In A Funny Way
Try to take something ordinary and make a joke out of it. There is a hidden joke behind every little event and situation you come across.
Looking at situations from a different perspective is a very valuable life skill. Try to see things in a funny way to enjoy it.
Learn Some Jokes
The internet is full of great resources for jokes, humour, puns, funny pictures, stand-up, etc. Try searching for stuff that you like and add funny, jokes, or comedy to the end of your search. You will find millions of things to make you laugh.
The trick is if the people in front of whom you are using the joke. If have not heard the joke, then you are funny to them.
However, if they have heard it, then it is a reference to a funny joke, either way, it is going to make them laugh.
Don’t Give Up
face criticism regularly. The thing about jokes and your sense of humour you have to understand is that everyone won’t always get it. Don’t give up at these moments and just know everyone faces these moments.
Sometimes you might have to sneak away from the group or party and take a breather for a couple of seconds. Keep trying and coming up with better material to make your audience laugh whether it is on a stage or just among friends.
Don’t Offend Others
Knowing your audience is a key point to making them laugh. You can go overboard with your humour and end up offending or upsetting an audience that doesn’t want to hear it.
Try to read and judge how others are reacting to your humour. If you have people falling out of their seats it’s probably a safe bet that you can continue telling jokes.
Don’t Be Silly
Silly humour can be a solid starting point for some audiences, but it can get old quickly. It also might make you look immature. If you’re looking to get wittier on the fly your goal is to combine spontaneous creativity with ideas that delight.
Sarcasm and stale jokes do have a certain funny appeal, but being witty goes beyond that. If you’re comfortable with it, you can also try your hand at wit in the real world.
Part of this real-world exposure is in exposing yourself to the spontaneity that it requires. If you’re new to it, or nervous or reserved about it, you might have trouble speaking up quickly enough to time it properly.
Stay Positive
If you are letting off unhappy vibes nobody will laugh at your jokes. You won’t even think they’re funny. To develop a sense of humour you need to laugh more.
If you are happy and laughing you will see that humour will flow naturally through you. You can feel jokes coming up in your gut and then boom you express them. Being nervous and hesitant will kill a good sense of humour.
Know The Differences
Making fun of someone for things they can’t change can come off as really mean. And even though these jokes might make other people laugh, the person who is the target of the joke can grow self-conscious and in turn their mood off. You don’t want to do that.
You can make jokes without being mean. Make jokes about something they can easily change about themselves or you can also make self-deprecating jokes to a certain point and there will always be jokes which have no victims.
