Question

Do most people assume that their style of humor is funny to everyone?

Answer 1

yes

Answer 2

Maybe, although it's an extremely arrogant thing to assume. That's why we make friends with some people and not with others; different personalities click with each other.

Answer 3

pritty much

Answer 4

My husband says he has a "superior sense of humor"  People like that are hard to live with!

Answer 5

I do not, I do not find everyone's humor funny and so think the reverse would apply

Answer 6

Yes.

Answer 7

Frankly most people hope rather than assume that their style of humour is funny to everyone. In reality it's more likely to be  a quarter of what they hope others find funny at the very most, and that's only if the individual is truly humourous.

Cheers

Answer 8

I can't speak for most people.   If something is funny I laugh.  If I don't get the joke I am annoyed.   If I get the joke and I don't think it is funny, I think I know what you are talking about.

Answer 9

Makes sense. If they think they are funny, it goes that they think everyone else will as well.

Answer 10

Yes, some people like to laugh at things that may not seem funny to others. Everyone has different types of humor.  Ex. sarcasum is a big topic of humor to lots of people but may not be as funny to us.

Answer 11

No, honey.  That's why I spend so much time alone, cracking myself up.

Answer 12

Yes but you only have to be on Y/A for awhile to know its not true after being reported numerous time for my humor I have found its not everyones cup of tea and there are many sad stiffs out there who choose not to laugh at themselves usually all the Teenagers suffering from depression lol. oh no there it is again dam my sick sense of humor.

Answer 13

yea its annoying

Answer 14

Yes, people have a tendency to think everyone is on the same level as you. that's why you always hear people going "you know what i mean?" "yeah" when really they're not on the same level

Answer 15

yes, in the hope that you laugh.

Answer 16

I think most people know that their personal style of humor is not funny to everyone else, but they don't really care if other people find it funny, as long as they do.

Answer 17

It's just a game. You have to play but you don't have to win.

Answer 18

I dont because I know my sense of humor is a little off center. When someone gets my humor, I tend to like them. Not because they get my humor, but because I usually have a lot in common with them.I tend to favor Steven Wright as a comedian. I wish he were more popular.

Answer 19

most people do assume that their type of humor is best for everyone

although there are people that get research on what most people find funny and decide to joke about that.. and then they become professional comedians
