Instruction manual
1
Learn to laugh beautifully. If you're a girl, then your laugh should resemble the murmur of a brook, not the roar of a dump truck. Train. Laugh with everyone.
2
Get together in funny and big companies, poison jokes. Do not miss this opportunity.
3
Define for yourself those areas in which you could really “turn around” with your sharp humor. For example, if you are not interested in politics, it is better not to amuse your friends on this subject - your sharp mind will not be appreciated. It will seem insincere and therefore not very witty.
4
Come up with witty questions witty answers. You can become a person with a good sense of humor without any jokes at all. Come up with a couple of phrases or phrases for various occasions. For example, to the question "how are you?" you can say "everything is fine", but you can answer "until you gave birth" or "the case of the prosecutor, but I have deals."
5
Do not be offended if friends do not perceive your jokes. There is an incentive for improvement. Even if friends say that laughing at you is funnier than at your jokes. Build a joke in such a way that the final part contradicts the initial one, this actually strengthens it. For example, "The commandant sits in the stairwell. He requires a pass from incoming people, but if they do not give him a pass, he will let it go." This is one of the methods of wit - a false opposition.
6
Use the technique of bringing absurdity and the wit of absurdity. These techniques are embedded in the situation itself, which is contrary to common sense. Professional comedians use a variety of styles of wit.
7
Do not joke on the topic that was discussed about three hours ago. Make sure you are heard by the company. If you are not understood or heard, never repeat or explain the joke. It still won’t help. The joke should be in time and place.
note
Point your wit to anyone and anything, but not to your loved one. You can lose it.
