Heh. And talent. When it comes to 'standard jokes' in real life - The best description I have for my joke-telling ability is a joke.
'Bob had just gotten into prison. Since his was a minor crime, he and the other prisoners were allowed the freedom of the building and grounds.
So, Bob wanders around and comes accross four guys sitting around a table and hears one of them saying '86!'. Everyone bursts out laughing.
'14!' - More laughter. '52!' - Yet more laughter.
Understandably curious by this time, Bob asked 'What's so funny about numbers?'
One guy turned to him and said 'Oh, we've been here so long we've memorized all our jokes and numbered them. So now, whenever we want to tell a joke, we just say the number.'
So Bob asks 'Mind if I try?'
'Sure, go ahead.'
'17!' - Dead silence.
Bob - 'Wasn't it funny?'
Other guy - 'I guess some people can tell them, and some people can't.''
That's me. (No, I'm not in prison.
) I can't do those kinds of jokes. I do them well enough on the internet, if I have a good one, but in real life I either crack up to soon, or don't tell it well, or something. IRL, I'm better at dry, spontanious, ironic comments.
So, point? I guess the point is, you just have to find the kind of humor you're good at and use that.
