From joy and euphoria to gloating and bitterness, laughter can express the entire spectrum of human emotions. If we try to control manifestations of anger consciously, then a sincere smile usually does not meet psychological barriers and, appearing spontaneously on the face, becomes a clue to the personality.

The cheerfulness of a person is the most outstanding feature of a person, with legs and arms. It takes a long time to figure out a different character, but the person will laugh very sincerely, and his whole character will suddenly appear in full view. Only with the highest and happiest development can a person know how to have fun sociably, that is, irresistibly and good-naturedly.
F. M. Dostoevsky, “Teenager”

How quiet people and ambitious people laugh

To correlate the manner of laughing with a person’s inherent character traits, you don’t have to be a psychologist. Observe people from your close circle, and you will notice that the smile of each of them corresponds to the image already formed in your imagination. ABOUT personal qualities the accompanying laughter and facial expressions speak volumes.

Covering your mouth with your palm indicates that the person is not too confident in himself and is trying not to attract undue attention. Most likely, he is sensitive to, prone to reflection and soul-searching.
Throwing back the head indicates that the person laughing is open to new things, easily gets involved in what is happening and enjoys life. He is not offended by trifles and tends to see the world in a rosy light, often possessing leadership qualities.
Theatrical grimaces and emotional body movements indicate that this is an ambitious person. He knows how to infect with fun, but craves full feedback from the audience in the form of everyone's attention and compliments. Despite his apparent openness, he can be distrustful and cautious.
Capricious and childish people laugh, wrinkling their nose. They have seven Fridays a week. They tend to change their views, hobbies and priorities.
If a person suppresses a smile, this indicates that he controls emotions, is as collected as possible, and this prevents him from enjoying the moment. Such people know how to achieve their goals, but nevertheless need the support of loved ones.

Humor and its targets

A developed sense of humor is one of the most desirable qualities modern man. Our ability to respond to the funny and make jokes is tested at every step - during employment, joining new team, communicating with friends and starting relationships with the opposite sex. Stock up on a couple of jokes for different contexts, and you can fill an awkward pause in an original way and make a favorable impression.

How to develop a sense of humor

A good sense of humor can be considered a form of giftedness, but, like any other talent, it can be developed. Even if you need a sign that says "Sarcasm", make inappropriate jokes and take other people's witticisms literally, you have a chance to become the life of the party.

The means of comedy available to everyone were described by teacher and inventor Yuri Tamberg in the book “How to Develop a Sense of Humor.” Here are some universal tips, following which you can learn not only to make sparkling jokes, but also to simply enjoy life.

1. Learn to see the comic

Witness presupposes the ability to distinguish good from bad - to know the norms of behavior and recognize deviations from them. You can joke about stupidity, laziness, careerism, greed, immaturity and others human vices. But when making fun of shortcomings, do not get personal - humor should remain kind.

2. Use associations

Learn to find commonality between dissimilar phenomena. The ability to draw paradoxical analogies will help you make witty jokes and look at the world from a different angle.

Remember school curriculum. Trails and stylistic figures(metaphors, metonymies, hyperboles, personifications, rhetorical questions) is an excellent basis for a witty remark.

3. Don't be afraid of the absurd

“Irresistible stupidity” uttered at the right moment can defuse the situation. People with a sense of humor will definitely notice logical fallacy and will appreciate your ingenuity.

4. Try rhyming

Jokes in poetic form are remembered for a long time and speak about the versatility of the author. Few people know that the master of this genre was A.S. Pushkin (“I am captivated, I am enchanted, in a word, I am enchanted!”).

For those who are not amenable to classical rhyme, there are the genres of Internet folklore “pie” and “powder” (lazy, fat and cheerful / the seal is lying on the shore / I’m not a seal, but in the same way / I can).

5. Expand your horizons

Wide erudition contributes to the development of a sense of humor - communicate with smart people, expand your vocabulary.

6. Fight the enemies of humor

Do not allow yourself to become discouraged, give up the idea that negativity prevails in the world, and find time to relax, because mental and physical fatigue discolors life.

Having learned to joke witty and aptly, you can win over any audience, save yourself and those around you from the autumn blues and survive any life's troubles. Remember that many doors open for those who go through life laughing.

They say that a sense of humor is related to the level of intelligence - the smarter a person is, the funnier his jokes are.

This statement is ambiguous, but has a truthful basis. The broader a person’s horizons and interests, the more situations he is able to play out using humor.

Healthy humor, as well as sarcasm and other types of entertaining eloquence, should be appropriate. It is the relevance and timeliness of the joke that ensure its success. And for a joke to be relevant, it is important to say it not only in the right situation, but also in the right society. Different cultural characteristics, worldviews and ethical standards dictate different conditions for humor.

And how does this relate to intelligence?

Intelligence is not just a number, the result of an IQ test, but a body of knowledge. The ability to correctly analyze the situation and cultural characteristics of society in order to adequately assess the situation will allow you to react wittily, make funny jokes and not hurt anyone’s feelings. But you also need to remember the joke in order to apply it. Thus, thinking and memory are directly related to a sense of humor.

You can develop a sense of humor by expanding your horizons.

Cultural education, studying the characteristics of various social groups– through literature and art – will allow you to navigate the situation in order to joke effectively and be understood. To master this art, flexibility of mind and attention to detail are important.

Thus, to joke funny and appropriate, you must:

Expand your horizons,
- develop memory, attention and thinking,
- keep your brain in good shape.

For all this, regular training is required. The Vikium service offers gaming simulators based on scientific research comprehensively develop mental acuity and stimulate thinking.

Using the example of famous and successful stand-up comedians, we can trace this relationship - they all have a broad outlook, are aware of current news, competently analyze the situation and very accurately choose the moment for a joke. It is useful to watch them, for example, watch regular episodes The Ellen DeGeneres Show or performances Louis C.K. or Jimmy Carra on YouTube. In addition, everyday, universal humor is clearly shown in TV series, for example, in the legendary "Friends"(Friends 1994-2004).

intelligence happens different types. Perelman is not joking at all. The creators of new weapons in Russia too. Their sense of humor could only be appreciated by nuclear physicists, who began to explain to the world that it is not realistic for a rocket to fly around globe Given these parameters, it apparently didn’t work out along the way. In every profession, at the professional level, there must be instinct. Comedians have it. They just feel why the hall will explode and why not. At the same time, this does not apply to some individual, who, for example, in principle, cannot be made to laugh in certain situations, this concerns the general mass of their jokes, which are often stupid and vulgar, but people are already forming a reflex. And Atkinson can just pick his nose - they’re already laughing. The same effect with Zadornov, Zhvanetsky and Galkin. They may already be talking nonsense, but it will seem beautiful, because the image of the clown has been formed. It’s the same in individual situations, if you know a person well, then you know his weak points, you understand how he feels. Therefore, they say that people are matched not only by smell, but also by what they laugh at, if they can relax together, then they are a couple, and if they strain each other, then this is a business partnership.

Before you start joking, you need to study the girl’s character, find out what she likes and what she views negatively. After all, among women there are people who like parodies of interesting manners of people, and some consider this a bad attitude and disrespect for these people.

It’s very good when personal jokes are created between guys, the meaning of which is clear only to them. Find any positive point from life together and come up with a joke that you can remember more than once.

You can also make fun of positive qualities your girlfriend and avoid ridiculing her shortcomings; it is better to simply hint about them than to aggravate the situation with a joke. The main thing is to look into her eyes and smile, all this will show the friendly nature of your jokes.

The ability to choose a joke is as great as the ability to choose a compliment. After all, girls are interested in guys who can make them laugh. The main thing in this matter is the ability to improvise. Prepared jokes are also welcome, but test them on your friends first so as not to fail in front of a lady.

How not to joke with girls

Everything here is not as simple as it seems. If some joke seems funny, it’s not a fact that the girl will laugh at it too. It depends on the perception of jokes between boys and girls, which is fundamentally different, and on the events during which the joke was told and on what exactly it was making fun of.

Don't joke about sex during sex. Guys who joke with a girl about sex unless they are actually having sex with her are considered horny. Also, you should not joke during sex, since the fairer sex’s sensitivity to humor changes at these moments.

If there are any sarcastic, mocking or angry notes in your jokes, this will indicate your dissatisfaction with the girl or her company.

Don't make fun of a woman's appearance. Even if there is any flaw on her body, this should not be done. There is no need to joke about her cosmetics, because girls try to do everything to look even more attractive.

Don't joke about her ex, even if you don't like him too much. The girl will protect him on a subconscious level, and you may quarrel over this.

Be careful when choosing jokes when your girlfriend... Her psyche is strong, and you must take this into account. It's like death to joke about a girl's pregnancy.

When you meet girls, many questions arise that you want to clarify. They may tell you about pregnancy for selfish purposes. Or, conversely, keep silent about the pregnancy if you are not the real father. But there are signs of pregnancy that will help you understand the essence of what is happening.

The belly usually appears much later. At first, the shape will be more rounded, and only in the 4th or 5th month will the belly become noticeably rounder. But it will grow only at the end of pregnancy.

Helpful advice

Often the desire to joke in a group leads to an awkward situation when no one laughs after the joke. Although it seemed like a very, very successful joke. The above situation suggests that either someone does not know how to joke, or everyone else does not understand jokes. There are two ways out: either develop a sense of humor or change the company.

Instructions

A sense of humor, like the ability to read and write, is not innate. If desired, it can be developed. Undoubtedly, nature gives some people the talent to make people laugh, some people have the ability to make funny jokes over the years, and some people have to specially learn this. But you shouldn’t be afraid that you’ll have to learn something new again: developing your sense of humor will be fun and exciting.

Be interested in humor: watch humorous programs more often, read humorous stories, jokes, listen to others joke. Quantity will inevitably turn into quality over time: the most successful and funny jokes will be remembered and add a baggage of humor. After a while, some good joke will come to mind by itself.

Remember: like company, like humor. In one company it is customary to laugh at vulgarities, obscene jokes and all kinds of obscenities. The other values subtle humor that is incomprehensible to the uninitiated. This rule is one of the components of the success of any joker. It’s not difficult to make a group of friends and like-minded people laugh, but to make them laugh stranger more difficult.

Make fun of your interlocutors with extreme caution. The ability to joke with a person so that he is not offended is the highest aerobatics in the art of humor. In relationships with, in conversations with superiors or with parents, it is better to generally refrain from this type of humor. It is easy to offend a person, but it will be difficult to prove that it was a joke. It's much safer to joke about yourself, about fictional character or just over the situation.

Try to come up with your own jokes. Come up with funny answers to everyday questions like: “How are you? “Kiss me first!” Try to use famous jokes in non-standard situations. Remember the most famous proverbs and sayings and come up with other, funny endings for them.

Trying to be considered cheerful and playful, keep it in moderation. A well-timed joke will make the team laugh. And constant banter can be perceived as bad taste. If the conversation is about serious things, trying to say something funny would be extremely inappropriate. During a conversation about cars, an anecdote about the love affairs of Lieutenant Rzhevsky will not be perceived by others as successful and funny.

Don't despair if you ever failed to make a good joke. Try to do it naturally and at ease. And remember: not everyone likes even the famous comedians Zadornov and Petrosyan. There are people who consider their humor not funny, unoriginal and even flat.

Have a great mood everyone!

It is important for any girl to be the center of attention. Firstly, it increases her self-esteem, and secondly, it helps her meet more people. Well, who knows, her future husband might also be among her new acquaintances.

Girls get what they want different ways. Some people want to look bright compared to their friends. Bright clothes and makeup make her stand out from the crowd. But this approach will not make it central figure a team.

Others chatter incessantly, telling everyone about everything. Such girls quickly become boring. Well, think for yourself, you came to talk, but instead you are waiting for an hour-long monologue about how a girl had chickenpox as a child. Boring.

Who I would prefer is a girl with a sense of humor. And that doesn't mean she has to tell jokes around the clock. It is important that she is able to joke or even laugh at the situation or her shortcomings in any situation. It is with such girls that I, as a man, feel very easy and comfortable.

Often I met girls who were completely devoid of a sense of humor or carefully hid it. Honestly, you feel tense and uncomfortable with them. Every second you think about what to say or do so as not to offend her.

Surely girls are already wondering what a sense of humor is and what to do if they don’t have it. I answer. A sense of humor is an acquired property. Do you think that all comedians and KVN-ki are born joking? Not at all. They learned this. And if they learned it, then you can do it too. So go ahead!

Before you start learning to joke in any situation, you need to analyze what set of qualities you need to have. I will state my point of view.

Girls who know how to joke about themselves and about the current situation are, first of all, smart. Yes, yes, smart. Can't see the connection? Well, the silly ones have appropriate jokes. Forgive me, please.
Girls should be sincere. Why? Yes, because their thinking is not clouded by any prejudices and this helps them joke kindly.
A girl with a sense of humor is independent and amazes with the courage of her statements. Well, how could it be otherwise? If a girl is afraid to say something unnecessary and depends on the opinions of others, then there is no time for jokes. It is impossible to relax in such an environment. For words with humor for men, see the link.
The fair sex is all right with self-esteem. She will not be offended by a joke in her direction, moreover, she will respond in kind.

Like I said, you need to be able to joke. This can be learned based on certain rules:

dear girls, do not make people’s feelings the subject of your jokes;
do not joke about death, illness, etc., even if we're talking about about the death of a guy's beloved hamster. Believe me, during his lifetime he was his friend. Personally verified;
your jokes can be based on real life situations;
You don’t always need to joke, it gets boring;
do not allow vulgarity in jokes;
joke in a way that makes sense to everyone, not just you;
It doesn’t matter if your joke was not understood, this is not a reason to repeat it several times and try to explain what you meant;
If you are not confident in your successful joke, don’t joke, otherwise you will spoil the mood for yourself and others.

The most important stage is the beginning. So in wit, the main thing is to start with yourself. Learn to laugh at yourself, then others will appreciate your wit.

Laugh at yourself

Girls, no matter how sad it may sound, but no. ideal people. This means that shortcomings are a reason to joke about yourself. It's even useful. Firstly, you will learn to accept yourself as you are and will not fall into prolonged depression when someone points them out to you. Secondly, if you accept this joke and appreciate it, then this is the first step towards success.

Don't know where to start? Start simple. Compare yourself, for example, with any item or furniture in the apartment. Imagine that you are soul mates, find a flaw and describe it in a humorous way. And do it until you succeed. Don't be discouraged if it takes a while.

Is it annoying to take the subway to work, but don’t want to visit someone in the rain? Very in vain. This can be put to good use. Think about what makes you happy on your commute to work. There may be music in the subway and bus, or a cheerful driver or fellow traveler. What is the color of your umbrella? It is bright and rich. You walk under it and imagine that it’s like the sun is above you.

Learn to draw parallels between events and look for some associations in what is happening. This will stick firmly in your memory. And if suddenly a situation occurs that is associated with something pleasant, then the girl will be able to joke without hesitation.

Thought must be quick

For girls to make a joke successful and appropriate, they need to learn to think quickly. Agree, joking about the situation ten minutes later will be at least strange and inappropriate. With such an approach, you are unlikely to earn the reputation of a girl with a sense of humor.

Develop yourself

You will learn more about how to become smart here.

Jokes shouldn't be monotonous. I am not calling for making the ability to joke in any situation an end in itself and attending trainings and seminars on this topic. Surprised they exist? Yes, such events are held and quite successfully.

Charisma comes first

Probably everyone has seen a scene where a girl made a seemingly relevant and funny joke, but the audience turned a deaf ear to her joke. What's the matter? The problem is that the girl is not confident in herself and is not perceived as an individual. Often, female leaders can joke at the wrong time, but the joke is accepted and this relaxes the atmosphere. Develop as a person and you will succeed too.

Make jokes in a pleasant atmosphere

In order to learn how to joke in any environment, first learn to joke in a friendly company. These could be classmates, department employees, or close friends. With them, the girl feels relaxed, and therefore the jokes come out more original and funnier.

Smart magazines and websites on psychology advise finding yourself a role model and trying to copy him. I'm skeptical about this. Every person is an individual. What a comedian does funny is not a fact that he can convey it to another person. And if this does not work, then the joke will look like an antics and a parody.

When constructing a joke, I would advise girls to use comparisons that no one expects. For example, she is so similar to the Venus de Milo: old, without arms and without teeth. Be ironic. A colleague received a promotion. Everyone around is congratulating. And a girl can come up, sympathetically put her hand on her shoulder and look devotedly into her eyes and quietly ask: “Well, did you jump?” Believe me, it will be simply impossible not to smile.

Wit is actually an art. But if the ability to sing or draw is not accessible to everyone, then there are no barriers to jokes. There are no girls who don’t know how to joke, they’re just embarrassed to do it. And wit develops. And this is exactly what you need to be the center of attention in any society and company.
