How Much "Sense Of Humor" Do You Have?

[Elsie]

My wife and I comment frequently about the proliferation of "funny videos" featuring falls and other accidents and wonder what we have become that someone hurting themselves is funny. I am with you Marty, not funny to me.

I'm with you. If the shown "accident" is just a silly goof, no harmful twisting of neck or body, etc., I chuckle. What is "funny" about a person getting harmed, no matter how or what caused it??

I think it goes without saying that I have a rather warped sense of humor.....

Ya know who he always wants to watch... Svengoolie... Do you have him there? He's hosts the Saturday night old horror movies and he does the rubber chicken thing and other physical gags. Not for me..

His attempts to be funny strike me as funny.

I think I have an ok sense of humor. I like to laugh and I am a great audience for an accomplished yarn spinner. I once worked with a man who was just knock down funny. It came to the point where I had to beg him not to tell me jokes. He would get me laughing so hard that it hurt and I would be absolutely helpless, literally rolling on the floor.

Don'tcha just hate it when someone tells a joke you don't think is funny, and because you don't laugh they accuse you of having no sense of humor?

I don't think that's quite what they were talking about Elsie.

If you can laugh at yourself, then you are one in a million and are lucky. I tend to take myself a bit too seriously sometimes.

I can definitely laugh at myself and have a good sense of humour but I do I take myself far too seriously.

I grew up with a father who was always telling a joke. He and my mother laughed a lot in their 60 year marriage and I think that is what kept my mom going when she got sick and became crippled. A sense of humor is important to me and I missed that in my marriage. My husband developed a bit of one due to living with me over the years. But his family........oh my! No sense of humor at all.

I have liked a lot of comedies over the years, Burns & Allen, I Love Lucy, being the ones I still watch along with many others. I have to admit no one makes me laugh more than Deputy Barney Fife on The Andy Griffith Show. He made the show in my opinion. I think humor is an individual thing since we all have different taste.

That's my all time favorite. I still watch the re-runs and have most of the lines memorized.
I used to love the line up of Bob Newhart followed by The Mary Tyler Moore Show.
Newer, favorites were Third Rock From the Sun and Everybody Loves Raymond.
These days I think I get more laughs from YouTube animal videos than TV.

We laugh a lot in this house, my husband is a hoot, my son has a dry wit, and we think almost everything our dachshund does is funny.

I have a wicked, oddball sense of humor. Ilaugh, but no one understands why.

My sense of humour is working overtime today
