Do you laugh at your own jokes and ridiculous behaviour?

    Anyone else find themselves hilarious?? I do. I don't mean I'm a particularly funny person or I should be on stage or anything but I catch myself laughing at stuff I said and did on a daily basis. I'm like my own best pal! Who needs friends when I have myself!

    Right now, I'm laughing at the jungle song I composed with friends after a few beers last night entitled "Fatty bum bum"...it goes something like this (you have to imagine the hard thumping jungle music in the background...


    Fatty bum bum

    Fatty fatty bum bum

    Fatty bum bum

    Fatty fatty bum bum

    Fatty bum bum

    Fatty fatty bum bum

    Fatty bum bum

    Fatty fatty bum bum

    Jungle is massive.

    The end.

    I even invented a dance for it which I obviously can't show you here.

    I'm willing to sacrifice my pride here and admit I'm always laughing at my own jokes even ones from years ago.

    Anyone else? Give me an example...

    Aw come on show us your dance!

    Song stolen from Snow's Informer. Plagiarism isn't funny.

    Unlike you OP, I feel that I should be on stage. I'm a ****ing riot. Just today I convinced a girl in work that Skittles did, in fact, taste like rainbows. And managed to nearly convince another (who asked what they taught in 'Classics') that they taught people about classic songs such as 'Rhythm Is A Dancer'. High-larious.

    It certainly inspired me but to call it plagerism?

    Was he not singing about licking bum bums down? A little different to my Fatty bum bum song....he wasn't jungle either.

    Thinly veiled I have a fat bum.

    I created a nearly identical song when I was a child except it went:

    Fatty bum

    Fatty bum

    Thinly veiled? I'd say it's fairly blatant, pal!

    You should sing that song to the tune of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. Hilarity will ensue!



    To answer the question in your OP, no

    I'm pretty much the only person who laughs at my jokes :D
    And the more someone doesn't laugh at them, the funnier I find them :pac:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,299 ✭✭✭✭later12


    Great outlook eve. Personally I think I'm hilarious sometimes, I'm sure other people are thinking what a knob, but I think that's kind of funny in itself.

    There's only one thing in life you can never walk away from,and that's your shadow. So you might as well get along well with it, and only do your best with everybody else.

    My husband said the other day "where's the wii remote" and I said "I don't know, but the big one is over there". He looked at me in sheer disgust while I nearly pissed myself for a good ten minutes at my hilarity :pac:

    I dont laugh at myself or at anyone else for that matter. Disgraceful behaviour.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,117 ✭✭✭Defiler Of The Coffin


    No :(
    :pac:

    How could you find a wee/wii pun funny in that case?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 37,214 ✭✭✭✭Dudess


    I still think "bum-bum" is a pretty hilarious word - three decades on.

    I'm sorry, I too have been a victim of a "wii pun". Resulted in someone getting hurt, it did.

    Awww man! Put it into any context and hilarity ensues. Just like farting.

    For some reason "poo poo" is better.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 37,214 ✭✭✭✭Dudess

    It is, but is the correct spelling poo or pooh? A question that has, I'm sure, troubled the finest minds.
    Poopoo is even better - although as a great man Mr H. Simpson once asked: is it one word or two?

    I was going to agree with OP but couldn't find a good example of how it do. It's this kind of humour^^

    When the other person looks at you like you're an idiot but you just can't help but laugh at your own joke. I do enjoy myself it must be said :P

    And they say white men can't rap?

    Aside from it being a racist sentiment, this guy proves otherwise. Along with Vanilla Ice of course.

    When I was small, me and my friends had a hilarious joke that went like this:

    Which is the odd one out: poo, bum, wee, or willy?
    (These were all the rude words we knew at the time!)

    Answer: Willy. Because you can say poo-poo, you can say bum-bum, you can say wee-wee, but you can't say willy-willy!

    God, I'm laughing out loud at that right now. Oh, the memories!

    My cousin got a box in the ear recently and he was complaining about how annoying the ringing in his ear drums is. I came back with the brilliant retort :"Yeah it must be very ear-atating". I laughed aloud.

    Oh and today my brother was clearly flustered trying to work out a difficult maths question as part of his homework, so I threw one of those cushiony rugby balls and it hit him in the face. Me and Dad laughed at that one.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 723 ✭✭✭bfocusd


    I was on a very boring train ride and thought I'd wind up my mate, by the time we got off the train she thought butter came from butter cups, and you could tell if a cow was a boy or girl depending on which side has more spots, and that a UFO is pronounced u-fo, jelly fish would melt if the water was warm, country grass is the start of trees, if we didn't cut it we would end up with a forest.

    She's kinda gullible, was hungover and lacking sleep, but im convincing when I'm talking a load of s*it, I should be in politics.

    It was the one time it killed me to keep in the laughter, I was so serious about it. Told her in the end and had to explain the real version of everything.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,122 ✭✭✭DerekDGoldfish


    You should be careful laughing at your own jokes

    A few years ago I was having a few drinks with some friends in my local pub, I began to tell a joke but before I could deliver the punch line I burst out into uncontrollable laughter, the laughter got so bad I got sick however I then began to choke on my own vomit.


    I was standing up in the middle of a busy pub choking but my friends were finding it so funny they were unable to help despite me being in significant distress, when I realised they were not going to help me I ran to the nearest toilet and attempted to give myself the Heimlich manover my ramming my stomach against the sink repeatedly, eventually I dislodged the sick and walked back to my seat with my “friends” with my new shirt covered in sick and tears while my “friends” were still breaking their bollocks laughing at the incident which they subsequently referred to as the “JLPC” incident (Joke, Laugh, Puke, Choke).


    Sometimes laughing at your own jokes is no laughing matter.

    I'm brutal for laughing at my awful jokes & pranks. The worse a joke is the better.

    Did you hear about the hipster who burnt his mouth?

    He ate his dinner before it was cool :D

    As for pranks, one I like to do is smear Nutella (if it's in the house, I don't carry a jar with me.........as much as I'd like to!) on toilet paper and leave it dangling off the toilet seat / on top of the toilet bin so it could be discovered by the next person.

    Hearing the person eventually shout out: "Oooh, what the fùck!?!" leaves me in stitches.

    The other day we were eating in Jo Burger and there was a jar of relish on the table. My girlfriend sniffed it and said "That smells lovely". So I quipped "Did you relish the smell of it?"

    Man I crack myself up.
