They say that laughter is the best medicine and a pick up line that's overly inspired by humor may earn you a date provided the person to who it's directed has a sense of humor.
Making people laugh is serious business and if you doubt it, you should ask any professional comedian.
Humor has evolved over time and you can now get a daily dose of laughter through social media.
Well, you can learn a few tricks up your sleeve on making someone laugh.
Looking at life humorously...
This is the simplest way to create a joke about something-anything concerning life.
It's when you look at the misery of life and then find the joke in it.
For example, an obese chick explaining to people how her weight affects her relationships or an Arab American giving a hint on how it was traveling in America after the 9/11.
The humor is well received since you are making a joke out of your misery.
Most successful comedians seem to break out through creating real life jokes out of their real life's miseries.
Conversational humor...
Occasionally, if well thought out, a joke in the heat of a conversation will always add a light moment before a conversation gets serious and almost boring.
However, you should make sure your audience(s) are flowing in with your line of thinking.
For example, you can find a punch line in serious political argument and you might be surprised by the hearty laughter(s) you will get.
Slapstick comedy A collection of funny photos uploaded on the internet most recently had a few points on why women outlive men.
The captions were glorified by the insanely stupid things men do unknowingly or knowingly that create a light moment of life and much needed humor.
Well, from the perspectives, they were not pranks but real life gestures.
Slapstick comedy is all about playing a prank on someone.
However, you should be careful since some of these pranks may turn fatal.
Playing sarcastically with your words This is another form of serious comedy that if pulled properly will create much humor.
You are likely to find such kind of jokes on political satire and analysis of celebrities' lives.
On a more personal level you can act sarcastic on a particular subject familiar to your audience.
The problems with these kind of jokes is that they may seem personal.
The idea is to emphasize your presentation than on the subject matter of your joke to avoid getting personal.
What of dry humor? This is whereby you crack a joke and everyone around you is almost laughing their hearts out while on the other hand you can't even afford a smile.
This kind of humor requires a lot of practice and precision to get the audience at the right moment.
Make your jokes hefty on such a scenario but mind yourself letting it get you.
It's tough, but real professionals can really pull it off.
Geeky jokes They are not as geeky as they sound but really all about to get the one-liners perfect.
This is whereby you get the subtle humor out of a situation by delivering your brilliant punch line that derives its humor from the fact that no one thought of it first.
Make sure when you deliver such a joke you don't come out as a know it all.
Poking fun at others humor Well, quite frankly, this is the most common way of making jokes at the expense of others.
Teasing, ridicule and sarcasm directed toward others may be downright demeaning but may seem humorous if followed by a "just kidding" remark.
It's advisable to not rely on this format of joking as not everyone is really fond of such jokes.
Bathroom jokes These are the kind of jokes that are pretty stupid and outright gross.
They are the kind of jokes shared among close friends for example the fart jokes.
You must refrain from cracking such types of jokes with strangers.
There are various ways you can create humor without hurting anyone's feeling.
It's seriously funny if you create a well thought out joke and deliver it with a pretty humorous precision.
