how do you become funny? are you just born that way? if only

I've I've often felt that I had to crack wise in order to make people like me maybe I do this because I have low self-esteem and I can't think of any reasons why other people would like me for who I am

did you manage to make people like you?

They will seem to sometimes. But they'll rarely give you much more than a temporary smile.

Being "funny" is almost a curse. Nothing is real, it's all just a joke, a mask. Maybe they'll see some funny awesome Chad, instead of the self-loathing loner. I hate myself so much, but if I can make someone else smile or chuckle, it doesn't feel like I'm worthless at that moment.

I think it was some Atmosphere song: When they don't see you frown they won't see a problem when you come around. Something along those lines.

Sorry about the blog.

Holy shit, you articulated my feelings perfectly. The one thing that always gets me is when normalfags say, "girls love funny guys XD." No, nigger, they like CHAD. Being funny is a good accessory if you're already Chad; without the looks and charisma, you're only the sad clown.

I bought Mad magazines and stole jokes from them when a relevant topic came up.

Tfw /pol/ redpilled me on the JQ and my sense of humor is completely stolen from New York kikes.

Yup, agreed.

I have no charisma, I can't seal the deal, I don't even know how to. The laugh is my tag along. Haha, maybe I can come too? Yeah, it's not worth it, you're still the outsider.

The only time I was remotely successful with women was when I had a serious drug problem, and when I was days away from killing myself. In both situations, it was because I 100% didn't filter or care what came out of my mouth.


I think that's where the "BEE Yourself" nonsense comes from. If you aren't filtering or questioning your every action, yeah, I bet it works out well. But when you live your life on self imposed eggshells.....

>if only i could make that my only redeemable trait...

Why not play to your strengths instead? If all your shit falls flat, being the guy who's trying to be funny ends up being pretty pathetic.

>how do you become funny?

That's a tough one, I wish I had something for ya.

>tfw know as the funny guy
>tfw I've had girls tell me their stomach hurts from laughing so hard
>tfw people approach me at parties just to tell me I'm funny as fuck

Does anyone else know this good feel? Sometimes when I'm telling a story in front of other people, I work myself into a kind of trance, and then everything like timing, tone, etc. just flows perfectly.

In all honesty Anons, a good sense of humour is one of the best things you can have.


You want my advice? Don't try to be funny in the sense where you recite your favourite joke to a group of people - it comes off at corny almost 100% of the time.

I've found that I'm funniest in general conversation. It's always best to have other people to bounce off, especially if they're a friend you're familiar with how they think. Once you get a good rhythm going, it should all come naturally.

As I said earlier in the thread, if you aren't Chad then it doesn't matter when it comes to girls.

I've also had people holding their sides and approaching me to tell me how funny I am. I enjoyed it-- the problem I had was it became me. People only liked me for my bullshit, my feelings and hopes were irrelevant. Getting laid was still impossible.

So I guess I'll say it's a mixed feel. People will temporarily find you amusing, but that's all. If that's your thing, then keep doing you.

It's 100 learned and practiced.

The simplest forms of being funny are sarcasm, over-exaggeration and, the robot's ultimate weapon, self-deprecation.

Like if you're a fatbot, you have all the funny jokes you could ever want right there. Some famous stand-up comics pretty much built their entire career out of "I am fat" jokes.

The next step is to observe normal daily things that no one ever notices anymore and break them down and point out just how actually weird they are.

I know guys who are stand-up comics, others write for comedy websites, some write for TV, etc. It's all extremely formulaic, like music.
