Maybe it's the flu I'm having but I had a funny "YouTube comment" on a Harry potter video, on my head and when I came up with it I giggle for a good 30 seconds, my torax started hurting (again due the flu)... Ouch

Well, someone has to!

[-] insaneinthemembrane@lemmy.world 39 points 1 month ago

Yes, it's usually the first time I've heard it too.

[-] Bougie_Birdie@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 1 month ago

Did that one make you laugh? Because I'm definitely stealing this

[-] dumbass@leminal.space 14 points 1 month ago

I constantly come back to jokes or funny things I've written on Lemmy just to laugh at my stupid joke again.

Only humourless people don't laugh at their own jokes.

[-] Lumidaub@feddit.org 10 points 1 month ago

If I didn't think it was funny myself, why would I tell it to anyone?

[-] HerrVorragend@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago

Who else is clever enough to grasp all the layers?

[-] Platypus@lemmings.world 3 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Like... An ~~ogre~~ onion?

[-] nichtburningturtle@feddit.org 9 points 1 month ago

If I don't find my joke funny, why tell it?

[-] m4xie@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 month ago

To make one's wife groan.

[-] corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 month ago

Exactly.

Even if I'm the only one laughing, I'm still gonna.

[-] 0ops@lemm.ee 8 points 1 month ago

Well someone's gotta

[-] plaguesandbacon@lemmy.ca 8 points 1 month ago

I'm the funniest person I know even though my wife would disagree

[-] philthi@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

Sometimes I tell myself a joke in my head that's so funny I laugh out loud. Seemingly at random from anyone else's perspective.

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 6 points 1 month ago

Hell yeah. I'm funny as shit.

[-] LastoftheDinosaurs@reddthat.com 4 points 1 month ago

Yeah, nearly every time. Gotta be able to laugh at yourself once in awhile

[-] card797@champserver.net 4 points 1 month ago

My jokes are the funniest.

[-] dgbbad@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 month ago

Sometimes it makes it funnier to laugh at your own jokes. Mitch Hedberg laughing at his own filler jokes cracks me up.

[-] ProfessorProteus@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

One of the reasons he'll always be one of my favorites is because he didn't take himself seriously and called many of his own filler jokes ridiculous. You could almost imagine him amongst the audience, laughing at himself on stage.

[-] unknown1234_5@kbin.earth 3 points 1 month ago

if you don't laugh at your own jokes your not being funny enough

[-] funkless_eck@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

I write and perform comedy, fairly low-level. To me it's a metronome on the fastest setting between "I am a genius, no one has ever been funnier" and "I can't even write a sentence let alone a joke, a funeral would be funnier"

[-] Free_Opinions@feddit.uk 3 points 1 month ago

More than my girlfriend does

[-] circuitfarmer 2 points 1 month ago

Yes, because they're not funny, but if I get in the habit of laughing at them myself, someone nearby may not be paying attention and laugh along with me.

That should work, as soon as I have friends to be around me

[-] aliser@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago
[-] SouthEndSunset@lemm.ee 2 points 1 month ago

Yes, if it’s a particularly funny one. There’s somethings I’ve said I still think about though not necessarily laugh.

[-] TargaryenTKE@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Obviously. Everyone in my head says I'm hilarious

[-] SplashJackson@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 month ago

Why make a joke if I'm not going to find it funny? I love to laugh

And live

And love

[-] HubertManne@moist.catsweat.com 2 points 1 month ago

sometimes but not always.

[-] Churbleyimyam@lemm.ee 1 points 1 month ago

Yeah, probably more than I laugh about anything else tbh!

[-] RBWells@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Sometimes yes, if I can't help it.

And sorry you are having the flu, that is dreadful, but enjoy the delirium.

[-] Feathercrown@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

If they're good I do

[-] kamenlady@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Yes - a lot. Mostly jokes i tell myself.

[-] affiliate@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

in real life i usually have a pretty deadpan delivery, so i dont laugh at those for the most part. but when texting/posting online, i usually laugh at the funny ones. maybe it has to do with the time in between when i think of the joke and when i tell the joke. in real life, there's not much time in between for laughter, but typed jokes are a bit more premeditated

[-] DragonsInARoom@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago
[-] palordrolap@fedia.io 1 points 1 month ago

My jokes tend to be terrible, so not really, but what will really get me laughing is the reaction of other people to how terrible they are.

Probably shouldn't laugh at that to be fair, what with causing suffering and all that, but as suffering goes it could be far worse.

[-] steeznson@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Yeah it's a bit of a foible but I won't crack a joke unless it's already got me laughing internally.
