Humour
 

Had a bit of a argument over humour at work today. It seems that some believe it changes as you get older yet some like myself believe it stays the same. We did agree that there are times that it is needed esp when things are to put it politely looking grim at work. Ok a few members here no what mine is like and that of others but lets take it based those we know that are non members. Is there a good time for it or a bad time or does it not matter?

Re: Humour
 

I think it stays the same,I still like to have a laugh as much as the next person.As for a good time for it and a bad time for it,what the hell anytime is a good time for having a joke :)

Re: Humour
 

i took the option of losing it as being losing his/her mind .... and seeing as t'other half lost his mind a long long time ago ... tho he did have a moment of sanity when he asked me out ... when i said yes that was my one moment of insanity ....:D:D:D

it gets better, more life experience and all that

Re: Humour
 

I've always liked a laugh, and still do, I'm a great believer in the saying laugh and the world laughs with you cry and your on your own:dancedog::dancedog::dancedog::dancedog:

Re: Humour
 

Seems to be how it runs at work at the moment. We seem to have more time to laugh and joke around. :o

Re: Humour
 

:mad::mad:Well, I don't find this thread funny at all. If it's supposed to be funny why isn't it in anything goes? If it's supposed to be a serious thread why, is it called humour?
Shouldn't there also be a choice in the poll that says, I've never found humour amusing, I'm an accywebber?:mad::mad:

Re: Humour
 

That's why you're a Rovers fan.:D:D

Re: Humour
 

I think it becomes drier and more subtle as you get older.

Laughter is also health promoting , as well as fun .

Re: Humour
 

I'm blessed.

In that I've always had the gift of being able to laugh at the misfortune of others.

:D

Re: Humour
 

Na I do my laughing at Burnley and have done for thirty odd years now THE PLANE:D

Re: Humour
 

Now that is what I am talking and asking about. Accywebbers now each others humour and what to expect.

The point I should have made is does it help when things aint going well.

Re: Humour
 

Sometimes it can help to diffuse awkward and stressful situations .

Re: Humour
 

Well mine might be getting me grief of a family member thanks to some suggestions last night. Oh dear I might be in heap big pile of poo poo again. :o

Re: Humour
 

Your all right Spugs she may have missed it:rolleyes:

Re: Humour
 

Mine has certainly got drier and I find things much more amusing for it.

If I didn't laugh at the world around me I would go stark staring mad and anyone who can't laugh at themselves is on a hiding to nothing. All these Z-list celebrities who take themselves seriously and can't see what pillocks they really are rather prove my point.

Michelle Mcanus, where are you now?

Re: Humour
 

Whoops!

Ordinarily, I would have fixed that but it seems more appropriate to leave it be for this thread.

Re: Humour
 

There's a lot of people think they've made when they've had there 15 minutes of fame, but they're soon forgotten

Re: Humour
 

Oh me too..i always laugh at the wrong things,,,,i always remember some realy posh toffee nosed woman in Marks and Spencers food dept (years ago)asking for cottage cheese with shivers in it..I am sure she meant chives,,,,.even the sales assistant found it hard not to hide a giggle...

Re: Humour
 

The knack is to be able to laugh at yourself,I only realised that I was dyslexic when I went to a Toga party dressed as a Goat:eek::D:D

Re: Humour
 

Was not missed and i am going to pay BIG TIME for it.:eek::o

Re: Humour
 

Did you act the goat when you got there?

Re: Humour
 

he's only kidding

Re: Humour
 

Now let's see: you live in Ozzy and support Rovers. You need a sense of humour;):D

Re: Humour
 

Don't forget Eric I'm also a Tory too:D

Re: Humour
 

I have found that as I have become more mature:), I find the present day comedians less funny...yes I do have a sense of humour, but it is different to when I was younger.

Re: Humour
 

I can be doing with half of these saw called new comedians myself, give me the Jim Bowen's, Tommy Coopers and Benny Hills any day, I won't mention Bernard Manning or Jimmy Jones :hidewall:

Re: Humour
 

Again it's a personal thing, some things I found uproarious when younger now only raise a wry grin, other things have me laughing out loud & in tears. I'd say that your aspects change & you perceive different levels of humour, just look at some of the "Kids films" Shrek, Ice age, so many levels, kids enjoy the visual & slapstick so do the adults , but there's innuendo & double intendre that go straight over the kids but has the adults in pleats.

So yes, I think you humour changes. As to does it help? Sometimes, but it depends on how deep you dropped yourself in it whether humour alone will get you out of it, as folk are wont to say "Oh I'm always in the she-ite, its just that the depth varies !" :D

Re: Humour
 

Than goodness no one uses innuendo and double intendre on here Dave:D

Re: Humour
 

Erm since when? :confused:

Re: Humour
 

We get it regularly. We can't get enough of it. It can be hard, but we take it lying down.:)

Re: Humour
 

Not as you'd notice:D

Re: Humour
 

Oh aye ! & Sarcasm :D

Re: Humour
 

Sarcasm, sarcasm Dave don't know what your on about:D

Re: Humour
 

Is that not when extraction of urine takes place? Though there is no nurse to say fill me up please.

Re: Humour
 

That sounds painful to me Spugs:D

Re: Humour
 

Depends on how they do it. Some might find it fun if you know what I mean.

Re: Humour
 

No Spugs I'm not a masochist :D
