To you, what constitutes a good sense of humor?
No. I don’t like lazy/easy humor, like one-liners and dad jokes and toilet humor.
I like satire and absurdist humor mostly, which alienates people because it requires knowledge of what it is satirizing.
I also like comics who insult everyone mercilessly and don’t pull any punches, which is not very popular in the ‘sensitivity’ climate we have nowadays where certain groups are ‘prohibited’ from being mocked, or people who think political comedy must be one-sided only.
At least you’re honest… you don’t have a good sense of humour :)
Nearly every comic I’ve seen that “insults everyone mercilessly” just rehashes the same tired jokes, I consider that extremely lazy. I don’t buy into your senitivity BS, people are just tired of the same garbage “I’m not racist, I hate everyone equally” humour.
Apparently not, because I detest webcomics. And people think they are wildly funny and so entertaining. I think once or twice in 10 years I’ve smirked at a webcomic.
Everything can be funny if framed right. Nothing is off the table. But you should always punch up, and never down.
You can joke about everything, but not with everyone.
I feel like knowing your audience is a huge part of being funny.
I reckon the key to a good sense of humour is to be able to laugh at yourself.
Huge part of it in my opinion.

As far as what constitutes a good sense of humor I think there are a few ways to see it. One way to see it is being able to “take a joke,” to know that you shouldn’t be offended depending on the joke.
Another way to see it is the actual understanding/ability to make jokes and to know when to do so.
A third way to see it is with your eyes.
…ok I’ll leave. :P
Hell yeah good explanation
I have the best sense of humor ever. Everything is funny to me. I am completely incapable of taking anything seriously.
Makes me think of that Bo Burnham song “what’s funny”
If everything is funny, then nothing is.
Therefore your sense of humor doesnt sense humor at all.
Personally, I prefer wry humor. It’s sort of difficult to encounter in the wild while staying wholesome. Nothing dark and twisted for the sake of it, but wit is somehow comforting in the right place. And clever is so engaging…
I can laugh at deadpan, satire, parody, dark, puns, self deprecating humor but find it hard to laugh at cringe comedy. I generally get when something is supposed to be funny, but it can be harder with some like satire.
I can’t tell whats considered “good” though.Yeah, its mostly subjective so good is different for everyone.
I like to think so.
Someone with a good sense of humor understands why jokes are funny. Similar to how everyone can enjoy music, but a musician enjoys it differently.
Those people know how to craft a joke, and how to adjust timing to make it funnier, and are the first to laugh or at least acknowledge when that’s a good one.
Give shit, take shit, have a laugh about it.
NO, YOU CALM DOWN!
