Do you laugh at yourself?

if i said the devil is ugly and i saw him in the mirror and also laugh about it , i think that then i am so sad inside , if i said i am too fat and i make an earthquake and i laugh about it that mean i don't believe in my self , i don't like to laugh at me or at other , but maybe if i felt then i will laugh because if i don't it will be so embarrassing .so the only real laugh is that come from a nice situation .

I dont usually make up jokes but I pull funnies on me and family where every one laughs I have to get in a stuoid mood to do this tho

The majority of comedy is based from the comic's life and comes from a place of hurt. The pain is eased when the comic is able to make a joke of it. Again, the majority of humor has some kind of "hurtful" meaning behind it. EX: My wife is so ugly she scared the snake! EX: My dad beat me so hard my a$$ is now leather! Roseanne Barr often made jokes about herself, her weight, etc. These jokes were funny to us, but they came from her place of serious pain. If you watch a lot of SitComs you will often find that most of the ones based in family humor (Roseanne was an exception), have the wife putting down the husband quite a bit. This is done, I believe, because if it were the other way around, women viewers would not tolerate it. There is the Tabloid Humor, which is truly sick also. How much do we care, or should we care about the young woman who recently got out of jail? We give celebrities tremendous status and when they fall from their pedestals (because they are human), they become fodder for Leno, Letterman, and all of the other comedians who want to take pot shots at them. Then, there is the minority of humor, the kind that I find truly funny. It is the kind done by Ellen DeGeneres. It is called Situational Humor and is not dependent on any bad event in anyone's lives. The world is a better place for comedy of this type. We can smile, giggle, and even belly laugh knowing that no pain was produced in the making of it. ~Donna

yes, i do laugh at my self whenever i made some silly mistakes.. it's just normal

I think it comes naturally for some people too like my younger brother. He has a quick tongue and is often funny when he says things to us. I on the other hand am terrible when it comes to telling jokes and when I try to repeat one that someone has told me, I stuff it up LOL

I only laugh at myself becouse a grown man shouldn' cry

I can laugh at myself but don't like other people to laugh at me, lol. I have always been kind of a joker. I don't tell jokes but I make little comments that are sometimes funny. You have to make light of things sometimes. I think it helps keep our sanity.

i generally laugh at myself. it is good fun and gives me pleasure for long with no guilt feeling

I would say that I laugh at myself more than anything or anyone else! I'm not good with remembering or creating jokes, but I always have a funny story or two I can tell based on my own experiences! Part of it probably comes from the fact that I am a very klutzy person, so there's always the physical humor factor to consider. If I didn't laugh about my klutziness (which is made worse now by illness), I think I'd have to cry about it! So of course I laugh instead! =) I don't try to mock others, unless they are very close friends who will understand the joke and not mind. I try to be very careful not to hurt people's feelings, because I know how that feels when people do it to me. However, among my close group of friends, there are many things that we all joke about regarding each other.

yeah... especially if i reminiscing happy monets with my friends... Can't avoid to laugh in any place.. that's why if somebody saw me might think that i am crazy... it's ok because i know in myself that i am a valuable person in appreciating memories.

I often laugh at myself when I make mistakes.I seldom make any jokes for fearing that no one will laugh at my jokes.I like to listen to the jokes made by others.If I find it funny I will laugh at it.Some people have a quick tongue and are active that they always find the way to make other people laugh out.But I don't.I think I am not a good speaker but a listener.

well i try general stuff and try not to hurt other's feelings though sometimes i do make jokes on others but its to a limit that doesnt hurt other's feelings too much. And i would never joke on myself... it looks odd , even if i want to make people laugh i dont do jokes on myself.

heh, i know people that laugh at their own jokes..i think it i stupid becasue they are tryin to gt people to laugh with them that usually wouldn't see it as funny

I can make some good jokes in school. 50% unbeliable truth

I have a bad sense of humor, meaning I find just about everything funny in some since or at least can pull a joke from it. I reckon I am a bit morbid at times. I joke about myself first a foremost, but no one is safe from me, LOL.

Yes I do laugh at myself many times as I make lot of silly mistakes. I don't feel ashamed about it but feel free to accept my fault and I laugh. Besides I also make fool of myself delibrately somtimes to make others laugh. I found that to be honest and simple and humble person brings you lot of friends and you become popular among them because everybody feels comfortable with such a person who can laugh at his or her ownself.

If I did any blunder of course

I'm not really good at spontaneous jokes, but could be very adept at pointing out fallacies or inconsistencies in a situation but do it in such a way you have to "listen" to what I'm saying....not hear, but listen. I've done that many times in meetings with the higher level bosses, and had maybe 25% of the group in stitches, but the rest couldn't understand what was said. On the same topic, I don't laugh at many jokes unless they are curious.
