3 Tricks To Be Funnier (including five jokes you can steal)

[@UtkarshBegiens]

Tried few of these techniques as mentioned in earlier videos and it worked. Having a fun attitude is the key.

[@JamesRDavenport]

I tried a few of these techniques too. Now Ryan Reynolds gin company is on fire and Ricky Gervais is using my naked body as a lamp shade. Baby steps guys. And positive affirmations.

[@adisokolovic]

As someone who has been doing this for the past year, it has done miracles. While I haven't become a world-famous actor like Ryan, I have become more interesting to people in my social circles. There were some other changes as well I had to do to achieve that, but I have noticed that people invite me to hang out much more often.

[@adisokolovic]

@@vikrantdeshmukh1944 I stopped being to self-centered and started carring about other peoples opinions. Started working out, which resulted in both loss of weight and higher self-esteem. Tried being more outgoing and trying new things. The main thing was that I tried to be as positive as possible. After Covid, I realised things can (almost) always be worse, so I grew to appreciate what I have. Oh, and I stopped trying to pretend that I was edgy. Now I cringe when I remember those days 😅

[@adisokolovic]

@User 1234 As an introvert, it can be challenging to feel confident and interesting in social situations. However, there are several ways you can work on improving your social skills and be more engaging in group settings: Look for topics or activities that you and your group members are interested in. This could be anything from sports to movies, or even food. If you share common interests, it's easier to engage in conversations and activities. For my group, we discovered that only half of us enjoy going to the club, but everyone enjoys a good game of Monopoly. So now, games like Monopoly and Uno are quite common during our group meetings. Even if your interests don't align with your group members, it's still worth sharing your passions. Talk about what you love and why you find it interesting. You might be surprised by how receptive others are to your enthusiasm. Again, the Monopoly example. Turns out, all of us were interested in it, but nobody decided to ask because they were afraid of rejection. Luckily, we had one common friend recommend It to us. If you're not sure what to say, ask questions. People love talking about themselves, and it's an excellent way to get to know others. Ask about their hobbies, interests, and experiences. This is also a great way to start a conversation. I always ask my friends how they are doing. The key is to be genuenly interested. People can sense if you don't really care. Pay attention to what others are saying, and show an interest in their stories. Ask follow-up questions and provide feedback. Active listening is an essential skill for building relationships. If your conversation becomes only questions and answers, then it feels like an interview. Maybe you have a story that relates to your conversation. If your friend did something that made him feel proud congratulate him. If you are talking about your dream vacation, be open and involved. Show that you care. Don't try to be someone you're not. Embrace your personality and quirks, and others will appreciate your authenticity. This is THE most important thing. If you need to pretend that you are someone you actually aren't, you won't have any fun. Surrounf yourself by people that know you, and that appreciate you for who you truly are. Remember, being interesting isn't about being the life of the party. It's about being yourself, engaging in conversations and activities that you enjoy, and building genuine connections with others. Changes don't happen overnight. They take time. For me, it took years before I noticed real changes. What's important is to remain steadfast on your path, and to know what your desired result looks like.

[@Jonathan_McConnell]

A good tip I’ve learned is that if you are too self deprecating people look at you like you have image problems, but if you only get a laugh at someone else’s expense you look like a jerk. Keep an even value for both of these jokes and you will be seen as funny.

[@SjorsTimmer]

The video brings it well, make fun of things about yourself or others that you're not super insecure about. And when making fun of others, make sure you pick someone of equal (or higher) social status than you, and not beating down.

I agree. As I am shorter than the average man (but still taller than Michael J Fox!), I often use this a humour. However, I have been told that it may come across as insecurity. So, I try for balance.

Avoid jokes at anyone’s expense. Just because it is funny coming from an actor in a film or a comedian does not mean it is funny coming from people you encounter in life.

[@G360LIVE]

@@SM-bm6jo That's usually what I do. My jokes are either self-deprecating or talking about something in a humorous way. I don't target other people on a personal level, because I want them to laugh and feel better, not feel bad while thinking they have to laugh to keep up a certain appearance.

On the point about trying jokes, even if they don't land, people will quickly forget the ones that don't land if you just move on. So if you say three jokes and people only laugh at one of them, they will still think you are a funnier person than the person who makes no joke at all.

[@SM-bm6jo]

More important is recognizing you are not a professional comedian who has tested, reworked and perfected material all year before that appearance on The Tonight Show. You don’t have to make any jokes to be interesting, kind, interested in people and life. I’d rather spend time with the latter than someone who is funny 1 out of 3 times.

What are some wise things about life? 1 . Don't change yourself. The whole world may change but you don't change yourself. Remain just as you are. 2 . Forget about break ups, move on. Break up hurts a lot but to move on is wise. Why to mourn over breakups? Why to keep thinking about what you have lost? The one who didn't care for you is gone for good . That person will never return to you. Think of what you can gain . Move on ,don't remain stuck to your failure. 3 . Learn from your mistakes and the mistakes of others. To gain experience in life, you have to face difficulties and especially failures. To make mistakes is common but to learn from your mistakes is what wise people do. Furthermore, many people learn from the mistakes of others and save themselves from committing those the same thing. 4 . Don't neglect the advice of elders. Though the advice of an elderly person may be old fashion but it is always useful. The advice that an old person will give you comes from the experience which the old person has gathered since years. 5 . Don't be arrogant. With time people change. Some adopt humility and others become arrogant. It is because some person has acquired too much wealth and education. They become rough in manner. They behave in an impolite way towards people who are below their level. 6 . Learn to accept failures in your life. You cannot gain success in everything. To fail is part of life and you have to accept this fact. Failures teach you the lessons that will make you become wise in life.

Usually when my joke bombs, I sincerely ask to let me try that again and tell it differently for sure it will bomb again. Then I say welp we'll find it eventually, usually this gets a laugh. However, if the conversation continues and goes another direction, I try to relink my first joke attempt to that new conversation. You already created a story of relevance within the interaction returning to the familiar. The worst way this can fail is they laugh at all your failed attempts but since you orchestrated it, it will come out as you are making fun of yourself. However, in most cases relinking the first joke to another conversation creates a fun story telling technique and makes everyone feel involved.

Every experience, no battle how bad it seems, holds within it a blessing of some kind. 7. Stop trying to force it. When it’s the time for it to happen, it will. 8. To conquer fear is the beginning of wisdom. 9. As soon as you trust yourself, you will know how to live. 10. Jump, and you will find out how to unfold your wings as you fall.

You guys need to release another video with this theme featuring Conan. He's the master.

[@Matt_Nor]

The key is they always make sure people understand it is an joke, and not meant to be taken too seriously... Something i do often if anything smells bad nearby, i often lift up my arm and exaggerate that my armpits smell horrible (when it obviously doesn't) and tell them " i swear i showered before i went out the door". Or you apologize for the sandwich you had... you didn't think it through how much gas it would produce. So it was either exploding like an atom bomb in front of said people that would make it look like a gruesome murder scene, or let it out slowly & silently. This doesn't mean you actually did fart or smell bad... it just shows you have humor and confidence enough to call it out in an funny way without picking on someone else. Even as adults farts, piss and poop remains funny. It's all about how you go about it.

[@echognomecal6742]

Reading through the comments, I see quite a few where people are sharing the things they do, many of which go against the advice in the video. I have a few thoughts...just my opinion... Not everyone can pull off the same joke or action. What works for one may not work for another, for various reasons. The audience matters as well. A final thought on this: "Stealing" someone else's material (whether the joke itself, the pattern, a facial expression, w/e) can be seen as extremely bad form. People tend to be polite (or at least they should). Anyone who has difficulty discerning between genuine laughter & other types (polite, awkward, forced, etc) may want to look into ways to enhance their skill or to compensate. Anyone who ranks above their audience (a boss, elder, more popular person, etc) rarely should assume that they can "always tell" when someone's being fake. Another common situation is trying to spare someone's feelings, pretending they're funny or have "made a good save" after a bombed joke. ...or they just may desperately want it to be over. Acting sheepish & apologetic, getting the sympathy laugh or a kind smile is rarely the best goal to pursue. Perhaps let it go, switch the focus, allow/encourage someone else into the spotlight to move things along? I'm sure this channel (& others) have better ideas than mine. Not everyone likes extreme humor. Not everyone likes all types of humor. Not everyone likes your type of humor. Know what kind of humor they like? THEIR type of humor. The kinds that make them laugh (when others besides you deliver them). Uncomfortable laughter can easily get TOO uncomfortable. Might want to read the room when dragging out the oooo stinky & naughty naughty jokes, slapstick, or the snooty pretentious stuff...or anything controversial &/or wherein you're being a jackass to someone else. Watch for body language, stolen glances, wry smiles, side conversations....& know who you can trust to truthfully, but kindly, lyk what's not working as well as you might have hoped. If there isn't someone, perhaps spend some social time looking for people who'll not just support, but appreciate you ☮

I don't like it myself, I found it funny for about a week, and after that it really bothered me how simply I could mould anyone I met into thinking whatever I wanted them to. I've gone back to the point of being a wallflower, because it almost seems like a superpower to know how to puppeteer human beings. I don't like it, I don't use it. A lot of purple on this list are masters at it though, Ryan Reynolds being a prime example. A dude that's managed to be a girls wet dream, yet men like him too. Ricky Gervais gets brought up a lot, try and listen to his early podcasts, pre-office, pre mega-millions, when he was a nobody working on the 11'o clock show doing very small cameos. He sussed it out VERY early. If you're reading this, I could make you fall in love with me via 20 direct messages, and that's not right is it. It's misappropriation.

This is interesting however, although some jokes can be easy to learn, being funny isn't really something that you can just show to people and then expect them to be able to replicate it. Comedy is so much more than simple jokes. There are things like timing, setup, gauging your audience, etc. When you're actually trying to be a comedian after receiving some instruction like this video can provide, most of the time everyone else is laughing, you hope, while you're working. That work can be quite taxing and may require serious concentration and technical expertise. That really isn't fun for the performer. If you are naturally funny it's a gift. One that does require a certain amount of structure but in general, you're having a good time while you are just being you trying to make people laugh, which is a very good goal is have.

UK talk shows are longer format than the 4-6 minute interviews US late shows. And they are more conversational and improv-based than the scripted spiels the actors say in the US shows.

They also do more group interviews, like Graham Norton, so we see more of actors riffing off each other than we'd ever see in the US.

Honestly, I can pull this off np, but how are people that are shy or insecure going to able to do this? Does it not incolve a certain "status" in a "known" group? (I wont do if I am in a new group of people)

Hi please can you make a video on tact and diplomacy, thank you😊

You should do a video analyzing Jack Reacher from the show on Prime, Reacher

I think a good topic would also be ,,How to make someone open up to you" or ,,How to get to know somebody who's blocking you".

I didn't enjoy acting class because they wanted us to do improv one day. The scene brought to mind Lucy on the I Love Lucy Show, and I would have looked like a bully had I used what she brought to mind in that situation, so I said nothing instead. I wasn't funny, but I wasn't picking on anybody. Another day we had to take turns playing George and Martha in a scene from "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" I practiced so much that I found her sarcasm creeping into my thoughts and language at other times. I quit.

Would like a video on how to handle people who constantly interrupt or interrupt in an attempt to finish my sentence for me, especially if I pause for a second to find the right word. It drives me nuts and usually ruins the "one second pause before the punchline" because it screws up the timing, which is everything with humour. The worst is when I pause before the punchline and someone tries to be funny with the wrong (IMO less funny) punchline and the whole set-up gets deflated. In other words how do I tell someone in front of other people to "LET ME FINISH" without shouting let me finish when they interrupt or talk over me?

[@Mma_tips]

you can use your body language to specify that you are not finished, like 1. holding a an index finger and waiting for everyone to focus on it and then bringing it down when you are finished. 2. or double-down on the joke by repeating the line said by the person in a funny way which makes sure that you are not joking on their expense but also lets them know not to interrupt them in future.

[@Mma_tips]

there is a video of will smith on this channel which breaks down how he doesn't let others talk over him in a conversation or a joke, check that out

[@machupikachu1085]

You probably sound like you are trailing off. Try saying you last few words louder right before the pause. People will probably realize your thought is not over yet. Cheers!

The fact that we see Ricky Gervais and Ryan Reynolds in like more than 60% of the video says everything.

A doubt regarding the Charisma University, is it like live or something? the reason i am asking this is because i want to practice this in my own language (which is hindi) so will it actually work for other languages or just english?

[@Vikingwerk]

They say not to use self deprecating humor, but without self deprecating humor I’m not funny!

[@milanista1899]

Who says not to use self-deprecating humor? They’re wrong. If they said not to use it exclusively then yeah.

[@richardmartinez3078]

Y'all should do a video about Martin Short, super funny very charismatic even when roasting people

[@rohitptnk03]

Great video

[@MrVladimirmozya]

Can you do a breakdown of Chandler Bing's humour?
