What is the principle of joking?

Natural and graceful. Don't be frivolous and rude when joking. Don't pose, put on airs. When several people are chatting together, don't deliberately lower your voice and hide your jokes, lest others mistakenly think that you are making fun of him.

See the object. It's also a joke. Some people can accept it, while others find it hard to accept it. The same joke, which is humorous to one person, may be boring to another. Joking with cheerful people may be frank and generous, and the other party will not care about minor offenses, but will easily treat you as the same kind, making communication more convenient. If you are dealing with an introverted and shy person, don't joke with him easily, especially with strangers. Careless jokes will make the other person guess your motives and think about your implication, which may bring unexpected trouble. However, if you are friends, relatives, acquaintances, know each other well and have no interest, a joke will make him very happy. You can joke casually when chatting. Be sure to keep proper manners when joking. When joking with the opposite sex, remember to keep a social distance and avoid suspicion and criticism.

Aunt Wang was ill in hospital, went home a month later and met Aunt Zheng, a neighborhood neighbor. As soon as Aunt Zheng saw Aunt Wang, she went forward and held hands and studied carefully: "Sister Wang, this hospitalization is not like treating a disease, but like going to do beauty. Look at your face, ruddy and shiny, like rouge. How beautiful! I can't catch up with you in makeup! " Aunt Wang waved happily and said, "Zheng Xiao, don't laugh at me. I have been in hospital for a month, and I haven't eaten anything. Can I get better so soon? " Look at my round face! "The two old ladies agreed to go to the park for exercise on weekends and chatted very well.

Well-meaning jokes give people warmth, make people feel happy and sweet as honey.

It depends on the occasion. On different occasions, we should pay attention to the discretion of joking. In the workplace, don't exaggerate jokes in small talk, avoid physical contact and fighting, so as not to destroy the overall serious atmosphere in the office. Chatting and joking can enliven the atmosphere in festive occasions such as weddings, but it is obviously inappropriate to chat and joke in some occasions with heavy atmosphere such as car accidents. Chat in your spare time, don't interfere with others. When chatting and joking on any occasion, don't disturb people who are busy, and don't disturb people who are having a warm conversation with others.

Look at the mood. When joking, you should also look at the other person's mood. If the other person is full of emotions and high spirits, you might as well make a joke while chatting. If the other person is upset and emotionally unstable, it is better not to joke. No matter what personality, people can't accept jokes when they are depressed and sad, and they will be considered as schadenfreude.
