Learn How to be Funny

Laughter is the best medicine. I'm sure everyone has heard of that saying before and it's because it largely stands true. Knowing how to be funny is a great gift to have, when used in the right situations of course!

Being funny doesn't necessarily have to be about telling "knock knock" jokes. In fact I don't think they're even that funny, but of course everyone has different senses of humor. I'm sure you know many people that are instinctively funny and wondered how they manage to say things that make people laugh so easily? Well, the answer is that some people are naturally born with wit, but it may come to your surprise that being funny can actually be taught.

Being humorous can be used in so many ways. It can be used to lighten the mood in a tense situation, make your friends laugh, and is even a good way to break the ice when dating. Humor is a trait that is high up on the lists of what women look for in a man. Ask a few female friends you have and they'll probably all tell you that a sense of humor is one of their dating criteria.

Of course humor can be taken a bit too far at times. The perfect example is when people try to impersonate another person in order to wind them up. This can sometimes be funny, but other times actually annoy the person being mocked.

Knowing how to be funny is about learning what type of joke to tell, when to tell it, and who to tell it about (if anybody). Being funny is a great trait to have and a favorite of many people. You can see this by just how many successful films there are based around comedy. We love to laugh as it makes us feel happy.

If you aren't naturally witty and funny then you don't need to worry about never being able to make people laugh as you can be taught.
