Does your sense of humor get you in trouble?

[I have WHAT in my yard?]

Luckily for me most of my family gets my humor...... bad thing is when we're together we get in trouble!

Real bad case: One of my favorite aunts died. This woman had the most awesome hysterical sense of humor and the most amazing laugh. Well our family has a sick way of dealing with grief by cracking wise. My sisters and I spent the entire funeral alternating between hysterical crying and equally hysterical fits of laughter! There were aspects of the ceremony that we know she would have hated! Which got us into how we wanted our own funerals to go and well, I guess you had to be there for that, but some people haven't forgiven us for that!!!!

BTW my sister wants to be cremated and have her cremains stuffed into fireworks and shot out over boathouse row in Philly.

I threaten family members with planting them face and peeing on their graves.

On the other side DH wants his ashes pumped with concrete in to the coolest job available in the world at the time, and that will so happen. Me just toss them ashes in the can and get over it.

My sense of humor has gotten me in trouble lots of times, especially with my In Laws. Also at church where it seems I can find anything funny...especially someone's odd singing. Used to have kind of an open mic at church. New people would come and sing. I had to completely stop looking at the stage one time because my husband kept shooting me looks like he was gonna slap me silly if I couldn't control myself.

One thing I've learned in a business class is that when speaking to a crowd you have to consider your audience. The naked joke might be ok with intimate friends but not with book club from church.

Miss red I don't think I'd find it funny to be sent down the wrong aisle.

However i have busted a gut at funerals and had to stifle a laugh in church and made the wrong crack to the wrong stranger. I had stuck up unfriendly people. You know the type you speak to them and they just stare like they never heard a word you said?

Like I said you have to consider your audience. On this forum there are to many varied senses of humor or lack thereof. If you think you might get offended please just pass over my postings. Though don't blame me if you miss some good advice or information.

I was awful in church when I was a teenager. Why is it that you can't control the laughs in a situation like that? My sis & a friend & I would bring bubble wrap to church and whenever anyone entered and knelt before they went to the pew, we would pop the bubbles.

I'm not proud of that, but it was hilarious at the time. We did more than that, but I better stop now. (OK I just made my confession!)

Loved the comment about whether to get a dog or kids

As a teenager, my girlfriend and I liked to pick someone out in the mall and follow them around. We had chosen this really good-looking guy and he was the target for the day. The only thing was he had his friend with him whose hair just stood straight up.

We had lost him in GC Murphy's and were wandering around in pursuit. At this point my friend decided to comment on his friend's hair saying that it looked as if the top of his head blew off. This hit me as quite funny and as I laughed my knees buckled and I fell to the floor against one of the counters in a sheer fit of giggles. As I tried to gain composure, I realized that something had gotten caught between me and the counter. I looked up only to see that I had trapped the foot of our target. He had this look of horror as he desperately tried to extract his foot. I was no good. I looked him straight in the eye and let out a scream of laughter. The poor guy looked terrified and he finally escaped, running out of the store. I just rolled in the aisle, literally. I may have even peed a little.

My sense of humor is usually very dry and sometimes very subtle. Many times when I make a joke, it just goes over everyone's head. I love The Simpsons but I've noticed that most of the jokes on there that I love tend to be the ones that have to be explained on the commentaries.

"Su-sin, Jillianne, Evel-lyn, Eliza-Beth, Rao-berta ... meet Marge." (it's better with the visuals)

"Grover Cleveland spanked me on two non-consecutive occasions!"

"This line will move quickly. It's full of surly single men."

Always!
IDK nobody finds most the things I find funny, funny, I make jokes like all day, but people just look at me like "weirdo"

Oh my gosh, at church this girl was doing a solo and lets face it she was just awful! She had no rhythm, no tone, not even a small hint of knowing what she's doing! I mean not that I'm some wonderful singer, but I've never ever ever seen someone sing that bad I just looked at my brothers and we all had this weird face like we were trying not to laugh our heads off.
