How to improve your sense of humor

Question 1: How to cultivate a sense of humor? Characteristics of humorous language

The writer Pritzker once said: Life can cope with the past without philosophy, but without humor, only stupid people can survive. Humor is the flash of one's knowledge, talent, wisdom and inspiration in language expression. It is an ability to grasp ridiculous or humorous imagination, and it is a kind of disharmony in society. Unreasonable absurd phenomena, prejudices, disadvantages, contradictions and descriptions of some unconventional knowledge, words and deeds. Humorous language can release our inner tension and pressure and turn it into a relaxed smile. In communication, humorous language is like a lubricant, which can effectively reduce the friction coefficient between people, resolve contradictions and conflicts, and make us calmly get rid of the difficulties that may be encountered in communication.

Humorous language can often make people laugh. However, not all funny language is humorous. Humor also has its own characteristics.

The power of elegant emotions

Elegant humor always hides the truth in humorous talk, and embodies a touching power of truth, goodness and beauty. So humor must be optimistic and healthy. Elegant artistic conception.

Although humor contains elements that make people laugh, it is by no means glib, mysterious or artificial gag. Most people with a sense of humor have a lot of cultural education and moral cultivation, while an uneducated person will not have a sense of humor and will only tell some shallow and low-level jokes to win people's sympathetic laughter. True humor must reveal profound, serious and abstract truth in a healthy and elegant tone, relaxed and happy form and emotion, so that interest and philosophy can achieve harmony and unity.

It is said that the previous editions of the Encyclopedia Britannica have love items, which account for five pages and are very specific. However, after the fourteenth edition, this item was deleted, and the new atomic bomb item also occupied a considerable space. A reader was outraged by this and accused the editorial department of despising the most beautiful feelings of human beings and being keen on killing weapons. In this regard, yost, the editor-in-chief of the book, gave a very humorous answer: for love, reading an encyclopedia is not as good as personal experience; As for the atomic bomb, try it yourself. You might as well read this book.

The editor's answer is undoubtedly humorous. More importantly, it contains profound philosophy, comparing love with the atomic bomb, which not only answers the reader's questions, but also expresses his desire for the best feelings of mankind and does not want the atomic bomb to really become a murderer. Simple and clear infiltration

Humor is mostly a few words, an understatement. It has neither a complete structure and tortuous plot like a novel, nor a fierce conflict like a comedy. It should have a special penetrating power, with a strength of 1,000 kilos and the breadth of a single article saying hundreds of sentences, comparable to that of Wan Li. For example, the answer of the editor-in-chief of the Encyclopedia Britannica mentioned above, in just two sentences, humorously expressed a profound and extensive meaning. Because of this characteristic of humor, when we use this skill in communication, we should express our meaning in the most concise and clear language to avoid dragging our feet.

There is a humor here: three squint prisoners stand in front of a squint judge. The judge stared at the first prisoner and asked, "What's your name?" The second prisoner thought the judge was asking him, so he answered, Yili. I didn't ask you! The judge turned to the second prisoner, but the third prisoner replied, I didn't say anything!

This story is very neat. If we want to tell a story, we should give up all the branches and vines like this, especially when introducing characters, we should be more concise and don't use too many words.

A true genius knows when to turn a blind eye.

defeat one's opponent by a surprise move

Speaking unexpected language and expressing unexpected meaning is the purpose of humor, that is, being ingenious and winning by surprise will often make your language particularly persuasive and achieve better communication ... >>

Question 2: How to improve and cultivate a sense of humor?

Some people say that a sense of humor is innate and generally cannot be learned; However, I think a sense of humor can be cultivated. As long as the method is proper and the foundation is profound, everyone can become a master!

How to cultivate a sense of humor? To cultivate a sense of humor, it is best to start with jokes. Listen to other people's jokes first, and then collect them widely. Of course, the collected jokes must be those that once made you laugh. Wait until you have collected enough (at least more than 100 articles), then classify them, study them in detail, try to figure out the artistic conception, and be sure to find out the jokes and handling methods in each article (the so-called "sharp turn"). If possible, recite and try to repeat it to others in your own words, and then observe each other's reaction as a reference for self-correction.

There are four points to note about telling jokes:

First, you can't listen to a joke twice-no matter how good the joke is, it will be boring the second time.

Second, jokes cannot be explained-they can only be understood. Too much description will destroy it.

Don't expect too much from each other-the most taboo is the opening remarks: "Today I will tell you the most beautiful joke in the world …".

Fourth, don't laugh before others laugh-laugh after the whole world laughs.

If the paragraph is smooth, you can start "satire"; Compared with jokes, satire needs more refined language to express its characteristics of "fast", "accurate" and "ruthless". Of course, satire can also bring joy to everyone, except the satirized party. There are two sources of satire:

One is the experience of * * * ─ such as childhood memories, likes and dislikes of * * *, etc.

Second, challenge taboos-politics, sex, physical defects, personal image or characteristics, authoritarianism, etc. As for the way of irony, it can be said that there are various ways. As long as we fully master the handling method of "sharp turn" and use the simplest language with the characteristics of quick response, accuracy and cruelty, we can "break the demon and get rid of it". The commonly used methods are: straight to the point, homophonic, continuous pursuit, openly praising and belittling, and changing the subject. The yogi must try to climb a flight of stairs to get there.

After mastering all the skills of irony, the mastery of language will certainly reach a very concise and accurate level. For practitioners themselves, with their reaction, induction and ability to grasp the key points, they will certainly reach a realm that is difficult for ordinary people to reach. At this time, we can enter the realm of "silent telling is more than talking".

In the realm of "silence is better than sound", shrugging your shoulders, blinking your eyes and pouting your lips can resonate with people and let them enjoy it; The yogi at this time, to paraphrase a martial arts novel, is already a "peerless master"!

Practicing a sense of humor has reached the highest level, that is, it has divorced from the technical level and sublimated into a life attitude (or outlook on life). At this time, he (she) can see interest in everything, and can always be in a happy state, making good friends and spreading laughter wherever he (she) is. Jin Shengtan, a humorous genius in Qing Dynasty, was accused of being guilty and demanded beheading. Before the execution, he gave the executioner a red envelope. After the execution, the executioner opened the red envelope and found only a piece of paper with four big words written on it: "What a fast knife! 」

A person is humorous enough to see through life and death, which can be said to be a positive result!

Humor can be combined with different new knowledge through imagination, and it is easy to produce many humorous ideas, but the most important thing is to understand what humor is. As far as I know, the initial humor is actually an episode of life in which public figures have some accidents that are easy to make a mountain out of a molehill in public places, and at that time, they solved the predicament at that time with clever expression transformation methods, which makes people relish. I remember Winston Churchill, the former British Prime Minister, and Handel, a famous musician, both showed extraordinary humor. Humor can show personal generosity and on-the-spot wit.

We should understand that true humor is not only about telling jokes, but also about grasping the "feeling" between people and this feeling. The story of "entertaining relatives in colorful clothes" in "Twenty-four Filial Pieties" tells the story of an old man in his sixties. In order to be filial to his parents in his eighties, he dresses up as a child every day and tries his best to please his parents by singing and dancing, just to be able to put down his figure. And occasionally relaxed and humorous office bosses must perform better than those who teach their subordinates with a straight face every day, which is also a kind of modesty.

As long as you are willing to put down your attitude, whether it is between friends, parents or husband and wife, people will feel happy to get along with you, and then there will be ... >>

Question 3: How to improve your sense of humor? Dude, first come to Dan. If you want humor, it will be much easier as long as you have the heart. I am most afraid of my humor rather than humor.

You have the foundation to practice humor, because you can make witty remarks when you are with your buddies. The key point is that you are not confident enough in front of your girlfriend. You love this girl very much. I won't advise you to change your mind, and I won't teach you to treat love with a normal heart. A normal heart will change your taste unless your feelings for her fade. You suddenly become clumsy and glib in front of her, but it's not you, don't you think?

Finally, make a prescription: let you penetrate the true meaning of gentleman humor into your bones: you can read two books, one is "No one works hard", the author is gentle and steady, and you can find it by typing the title directly in Sina. This book seems to have been published in 2006, or in 2005, I can't remember clearly. Language is unique and interesting.

There is also a book called "Go to College after Eating". The author seems to be called Hard Cao Maruko.

This book is at the starting point. You enter the title at the starting point and read it from the beginning when you find it. It's no use just writing a few funny words. In this case, you must be able to find a specific scene, so do it. You will know what humor is after reading it.

If after reading it, you have no feelings or gains, then you can slap me in the face!

The bomber sends his best wishes. Everything will be fine.

Question 4: How to improve your sense of humor and make yourself optimistic. An optimistic person is not necessarily humorous, but a humorous person must be optimistic. A narrow-minded and negative-minded person will not have a sense of humor. Humor belongs to those who are calm and passionate about life. Even in a dull and unhappy life, don't let yourself become discouraged, let alone complain and sigh with other colleagues, but keep an optimistic mood and make yourself humorous. Because optimism and humor can eliminate hostility between each other, create a close interpersonal atmosphere, help yourself and others to become relaxed and eliminate fatigue at work. Expand your knowledge. Humor is a manifestation of wisdom, which must be based on rich knowledge. Only when a person has the ability to assess the situation and extensive knowledge can he talk rich and witty, thus achieving proper humor. Therefore, to cultivate a sense of humor, we must dabble extensively and enrich ourselves. This requires us to read as much as possible and broaden our knowledge. When you have accumulated a wealth of knowledge and met all kinds of people on various occasions, you will be confident and calm. Appropriate association. Humorous language is exaggerated, but it is different from the exaggeration of general language and has surprising ingenuity. A humorous person must have rich associations. American philosopher George? Santayana decided to end his teaching career at Harvard University one day. One day, when he gave his last speech in the auditorium of Harvard University, a beautiful robin stopped on the windowsill and kept calling. Santayana looked at the bird with ecstasy. After a long time, he turned to the audience and said softly, "I'm sorry, everyone, I have an appointment with Spring." Say that finish, he went out with a smile. This beautiful ending is full of poetry and humor and won warm applause from the audience. Usually, consciously training your quick reaction ability and analytical ability to things will help your association. Keep accumulating. Read more, watch more, listen more, learn more, there are more humorous materials, and there are more materials to imitate, learn from and refer to. For example, reading some literary works, humorous stories, brain teasers and so on. Regular exercise helps to cultivate a person's sense of humor. Finally, in the process of using humor, we must pay attention to the occasion and the applicable object, and we must be friendly and healthy. In this way, others can feel your talent and wisdom in the process of listening, and those jokes full of low taste will only make people feel sick.

Question 5: How to improve your sense of humor? In fact, humor means that you see things differently from others.

A common thing, but from another angle, you will find how funny it is.

Like going to the zoo. When an animal barks, you turn to your friend and say, "What are your peers talking about?"

For example, you chat with mm on the Internet, and then you want to take a shit. Just say, I expel the toxins from my body. Wait for me. Or haven't replied for a long time. Then mm asked you why you went. You said: I'm going to study how the toilet is made. . Wait a minute. .

I don't explain them one by one. .

It is natural for people to look at things from different angles.

As we all know, when China goes out to eat in a restaurant, the waiter will politely say, Please take care.

Then you say to your friends: Don't walk so fast, they tell you to walk slowly.

I remember once having a barbecue with some friends. . Then, I don't know what it is. . I took a bite and didn't eat it. Friends don't know, call the waiter to ask. . The waiter didn't know for a long time. . I'll just take the half string I ate and let her taste it. . Everyone laughed. . Of course, she can't really eat it. .

The main principle of improving self-confidence is to enlarge your own shortcomings. . . Change your mind. .

For example, many boys are short and collapse when they see girls taller than themselves. So did I at first. . Dare not approach. Later, I changed my mind. I deliberately magnified this defect of my short stature. Don't take her seriously. Just walk up to her and say goodbye to her height. . And say, wow. . You are one chamber pot taller than me. . I really haven't finished developing it. . .

And your thoughts. People with low self-esteem will think that I am going out hand in hand with a girl taller than me, and everyone will see me. . I feel embarrassed. . Raise your head. .

However, confident people will think. . I am so short that I can hug a girl who is taller and more beautiful than me. . It's sad that other boys are so tall that they can only watch. .

Finally, I want to say one thing. .

Height really doesn't matter, and girls don't mind. As long as you are humorous and talented, these are not problems. .

If your male friends laugh at you. . Your girlfriend is taller than you. . . You can use your humor to say nothing. . In bed, too. .

How to improve your generosity and discretion? .

If something happens, what you do can't change its result, so you don't have to do it.

I remember having dinner with my girlfriend once. . There are 1 men and 2 women next to it. . At first everyone laughed and laughed. .

One of the women took out a digital camera and asked the man to take pictures. As a result, the man did not hold it on the ground.

A woman's face changed in an instant. . As a result, they had a meal in this embarrassing scene. . Is it necessary?

In this case, the man can buy you a new one or something. . I have no objection. . But? . No change, and the relationship is broken.

It is important for boys to pay attention to this.

Don't give the impression that you are narrow-minded.

For example, having hot pot with several mm's and lending her mobile phone to one of the women. . She accidentally dropped it in the soup when she returned it to you.

Everyone must have panicked. . But now you have 100 unhappiness in your heart. . You can't show it . Because the mobile phone is already in the soup, we can't go back in time.

Nothing you can do now can change the result. But it can change the way others think of you. .

You can smile and say 1: I only know that mobile phones are waterproof, but I don't know if they can prevent spicy soup. .

Or smile at your girl and ask: Do you want to help me prove that my mobile phone is afraid of being hot? Ha ha. .

Your goodwill will greatly increase. . Let's compare it. . It is better to look angry than to look angry. .

Question 6: How to improve your sense of humor? My friends generally think that I am a humorous person.

I agree with that. I saw a sentence in the first grade: people's emotions are contagious, your happiness will make people around you happy, and your sadness will make people around you sad.

Then I have been trying to make myself happy, so when I look at things, I always think about how to look at them from a funny angle. Slowly, I became happy and enjoyed the happiness of people around me ~

As for suggestions, I recommend an online author: Liu. A vertical and horizontal network writer, he is now the first in the city. Humorous writing, description and story composition are also good. Most of the previous works were stallions, but now they are much better ~

If it is acceptable, it should make you a little humorous ~ ~ ~

By the way, there are many other online programs, such as "The Big Run". Pulling them out when you have nothing to do can still effectively improve the stock of jokes in your mind! ! !

Question 7: How to improve your speaking connotation and sense of humor? Humor is not cultivated overnight. I suggest you watch more comedy movies.

But a sense of humor needs connotation, that is to say, you need to cultivate your own connotation and read more books, such as articles by Lu Xun and Qian Zhongshu, which have deep connotations and are sometimes humorous and obscure. With the connotation, humor is the real humor, otherwise it is a funny clown.

Question 8: How to improve your sense of humor? Pan Wei?

Dad says who is next door every day.

Almost as many as my son,

Why haven't I dated yet? I said, what a hurry.

As a result, a gorgeous sentence came, "If you don't get married,

Your adopted son can't beat his grandson. "

Shit, is that your father?
