Do you have a quirky sense of humor?

Post Reply New Topic

I use dry sarcasm and observational humor. I've been told I am really funny, and I enjoy making people laugh, though I find it draining to continue to do so for any extended length of time.

Yes. To approximate NT humor I have to be drunk or high.

I guess my humour is dry at the moment. It is not raining.

I've been told I have a good sense of humor, or a unique sense of humor. Never been told I had a quirky sense of humor or that I was funny.

Well, I've been described as quirky before, but I'm not entirely sure if that also applies to the kind of humour I use. I often improvise when telling jokes, so it somewhat depends on the situation.

That's why I enjoy going to improv club, I get to remark on completely bizarre concepts and just roll with it. Sometimes it can be difficult, but then there are moments when it comes naturally. It depends on the prompt and if I get the timing right.

The group often plays guessing games, where someone doesn't know something about a particular character and has to figure it out. It can be fun to hint at it subtly, making the audience laugh and the person guessing utterly bewildered. One time I was playing the woman who lived in a shoe (the person had to figure this out), so I remarked "You know what the best thing about my home is? It has a lot of sole".

I'm still kicking myself for messing up the line "Never fear, dental hygiene is here!" when bursting into a party setting as an enthusiastic dentist. However, that's improv, it's hard not to make strange and/or cheesy jokes. In fact it's encouraged.

So, what is my humour like in everyday situations? Hmm. A little self-deprecation, some bad puns (OK, a lot, I apologise), the occasional observation etc. I usually avoid knock-knock jokes because I tend to mess up on them.

I think this site has a sense of humour. It did list me as a seagull. Now it is showing me as a nut. A toucan nut. (Or is it peacun? Sometimes get them mixed up).

Not sure if you're serious but you increase along the bird/dinosaur family as you increase in post count. Well with the exception of butterfly, not sure why that's in progression. At 300 posts you'll become a deinonychus, and at 400 posts a velociraptor. At 500 posts you'll just be listed as a veteran.

I wouldn't say my sense of humor is quirky. I find it rather dark and unorthodox. I enjoy comedy, just not the "quirky" kind.

I use plays on words, observational humor and personal stories to develop my humor. I am not a fan of scripted jokes. Many of them are old and boring and some jokes are vulgar and unfunny.

Is my humour. Shame I couldn't stay as a seagull. I love seagulls!

Yes, but am often told off whenever I express it.
