Your sense of humour

[Ben Kenobi]

Your style's mostly goofy, innocent and feel-good. Perfect for parties and for the dads who chaperone them. You can actually get away with corny jokes, and I bet your sense of humor is a guilty pleasure for your friends. People of your type are often the most approachable and popular people in their circle. Your simple & silly good-naturedness is immediately recognizable, and it sets you apart in this sarcastic world.

PEOPLE LIKE YOU: Will Ferrell - Will Smith

Someone looked - Ogie indeed can be taught. I find it interesting, though, given the more-or-less common political leaning for the three of you, that all of you are definitely conservative. By the way - I don't find one of you grating - which is why I didn't answer Japher's question. Now which one ....

(65% dark, 43% spontaneous, 50% vulgar)
your humor style:
VULGAR | SPONTANEOUS | DARK


Your sense of humor is off-the-cuff and kind of gross. Is it is also sinister, cynical, and vaguely threatening to the purer folks of this world, and you probably get off on that. You would cut a greasy fart, then blame it on your mom, and then just shrug when someone pointed out that she's dead.

Yours is hands-down the most outrageous sense of humor; you like things trangressive and hardcore. It's highly likely (a) you have no limits (b) you have no scruples and (c) you have no job. Ironically, it's your type of humor that can make the biggest bucks in show business.

PEOPLE LIKE YOU: Howard Stern - Adam Sandler - Roseanne Barr

I'm an ass... I mean provactueir!

the good news is I've discovered I'm not losing my ability to laugh. I laughed my ass off at tv shows last night.

This just proves new tv shows suck. Even family guy which isn't as good as it used to be.

What did I find so funny? Actually one of them was a new tv show. Malcom in the Middle. I've always liked that show. This was the one where they were on the billboard spray painting it (taped from last sunday). And then I watched a couple of really funny Cheers repeats on TVland. Cheers is such a great show. There really aren't any sitcoms today that can match it.

(69% dark, 26% spontaneous, 22% vulgar)
your humor style:
CLEAN | COMPLEX | DARK


You like things edgy, subtle, and smart. I guess that means you're probably an intellectual, but don't take that to mean you're pretentious. You realize 'dumb' can be witty--after all isn't that the Simpsons' philosophy?--but rudeness for its own sake, 'gross-out' humor and most other things found in a fraternity leave you totally flat.

I guess you just have a more cerebral approach than most. You have the perfect mindset for a joke writer or staff writer. Your sense of humor takes the most effort to appreciate, but it's also the best, in my opinion.

Also, you probably loved the Office. If you don't know what I'm talking about, check it out here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/comedy/theoffice/.

I seem to be the idiot savant oh my im an idiot

[Mr. Harley]

You probably like well-thought-out pranks and/or spoofs and it's highly likely you've tried one of these things yourself. In a lot of ways, yours is the most entertaining type of humor.

Thank you very much Ogie, Japher, and Drake. It seems the test is accurate for me.

After analyzing how everyone fell, I thought I had a sure thing. Wezil almost queered the whole thing.

Cheers is indeed good. But I´d say that Frasier, Scrubs, Drew Carey Show, Friends and a few others are up there with it. Of course Seinfeld is the best sitcom ever!

why is sense of humour commonly cited as a dating preference, but not sense of seriousness?

Why is it in every single personal ad, a woman wants a man with a great sense of humour. They all want stand up comedians!!

I can't tell jokes. I have a bad memory, and can never remember them. And my sense of timing is non-existant.

I simply am not funny. I can laugh at stuff, I do that all the time. But I can't make other people laugh. except by acting goofy, which I sometimes (all the time really) do on these forums. Yes it is an act. Or maybe I really am goofy. I'll leave that philosophical question for later.

I'm just not good a making women laugh. . though I can usually get a chuckle when I show them my penis.

[Japher]

When women say they want a sense of humor they mean that they want you to find it funny when they get caught in a lie, but tell you they were only kidding...
