If You Don’t Learn How To Be Funny, Your Social Life Will Suffer
Learning how to be funny is a very difficult process if you learn from the wrong sources. In the early 2000’s I purchased 3 different guides teaching people how to be funny. I read one which explained some things but was a boring read. Not one funny thing was listed in the entire book.Months later I bought another which was written by a University professor. My English level is average at best and I barely understood one tip. I then bought a third and it was filled with too much fluff. I only read 30 pages and never bothered continuing. From there I realized I had to learn on my own. BUT I accidentally came across
How To Be Funny
and checked it out. It claimed the book can be read in 7 days. I did it in 2. This is by far the best how to be funny guide I’ve ever read. It's a fast read, easy to understand, designed nicely and can be downloaded in seconds. In my opinion there's no better way to learn how to be funny. I went over it a second time to make sure I didn't forget anything. The tips explained were easy to remember. Later I opened up Microsoft Word and started writing random jokes I learned from the guide. Some actually turned out funny. (I was shocked too) The first piece of writing gave my mom a chuckle. The more I wrote, the funnier my material became. I know this because my mom laughed. And how often are parents wrong?

I went to a party a week after I finished reading it the 2nd time. A friend who's really good with ‘your mom’ jokes was there. In front of everyone he said to me "Your mom likes old men" and I thought of a good reply right away. I responded "Of course.. They perform better than you!" Everyone started laughing and a few people gave me props for the good comeback. From that point on he never used a 'your mom' joke on me. The guide helped me improve my wit. |

I have been in the online dating scene for a while. Since I was shy meeting people in person, online was the preferred method. In the early days I filled my profile with the same garbage other guys wrote.After I learned how to think and write good humor, I started using my creativity and put humor into what I wrote. The results were good. With each profile I wrote, some girls were messaging me about how much they enjoyed reading it. |
As my sense of humor developed, I realized putting my new skills to use in public would be difficult since my social skills weren't good.
In business I learned that 93% of your communication comes from your voice tone and body language. After spending many years being anti-social (that was in style at the time), I realized this was something that I needed to work on.

I walked in an upscale restaurant and saw the hostess.Me (excited): OH MY.. IT'S YOU!! HOW IS IT GOING?? REMEMBER ME??
Girl (confused): No I don't..
Me (excited): Really?
Girl (smiling): No...
Me (excited): Well...
Me (straight face): Just kidding... I wanted to be original with my opener. That put a smile on her face. What made that funny is the transition in facial expressions. Me going from being excited to a straight face. |
This guide goes over what you need to know to make it out in the real world. Throughout life I had a tough time holding a straight face and keeping eye contact with random people. Now it's easier.

When I go to high end restaurants, I go with my rusted 15 year old car. It still has a cassette deck for crying out loud.. lolThe venue I go to is loaded with beautiful women and wealthy guys who drive high end cars. Most of these guys go with an attempt to meet a girl. I go dressed okay with an old car and guess who leaves the venue with either a phone number or girl? It was my personality that did it. Or maybe the cassette deck.. lol |
If you're a guy who's reading this, I'm letting you know that almost every guy out there thinks money will get women. That is not true. Personality comes first! Women love guys who know how to be funny. Well that's the end of my story. Here are the links to the how to be funny guides if you want to check them out.
