  • To write a joke all you have to do is write something you think is funny then make sure that your ''joke'' makes sence.

Ex:What do you call a peice of cheese that's not yours?

that is not your cheese

that's NACHO cheese!

  • nacho is used as not your in this joke and there is a type of cheese called nacho cheese.

You tell jokes easily!

Example:

Bob. Do you like seafood?

Larry. Yea. Why?

Bob. (Opens his mouth while eating something.) Here! See food.

Actually, there is a way to tell jokes and be funny.

1. Try to keep a straight face and avoid laughing as you tell the jokes. Cackling the whole time you or a stage partner tell jokes is very distracting.

2. Know your material. Try to tell the events in story jokes in the correct order. You don't want to have to give details after you give the punch line. Likewise, if you want to go professional or participate at a comedy club, then you need to remember entire routines and the best order for the jokes.

3. Tell jokes that are funny. Adding a few groaners and brain twisters is okay, but you don't want those to be the bulk of your jokes. If you have to add sound effects, laugh the whole time, or cuss to make them funny, then they really aren't funny. So you'd want to try them on a test audience first, and tweak or remove ones that aren't really funny.

4. Use terminology and content that is understandable by your audience. You can use medical terms if your audience is doctors and other healthcare workers, but you would not use such terms when joking among children or common people.

5. Try to avoid cliched jokes if possible. Once an audience has heard so many "man walked in a bar" jokes, they are really not interested in hearing too many more unless they are very good.

6. Practice a lot. Don't turn down any chance to be at a comedy club or other place if you are serious as a comedian.

7. Know your audience and what offends them. You would not get up and tell anti-gay jokes to a gay audience, and most certainly not after a televised gay suicide or gay-bashing incident. You would not tell "yo mamma" jokes to someone who just lost their mother. You would not tell jokes that bash particular professions to people of that profession, unless you are one too and that is what your audience likes. While joking in ways that sound threatening is never really good, it should be particularly avoided at airports, on planes, and inside government buildings. That could get you arrested or detained, and you might miss a flight or have to do business another day. Jokes about 9/11 or other major disasters are in poor taste, and even more so when the audience is survivors or family members of those who died in such tragedies. Joking about yourself may be bad if you implicate yourself in illegal or objectionable things, even if hypothetical, since that can make you a target for investigation or vigilante actions.

There are many ways to make up jokes.

Some people are naturally funny and can make up jokes at any time, off the top of their head. Others write down various situations they think might be funny, then try to write a joke from that situation. Others take a standard format, such as knock, knock jokes, and make jokes to fit that format. Others choose a theme and try to make jokes to fit the theme.

After writing out their jokes, they then test them out. Many people who write jokes perform at a comedy club to test out the jokes they have written. Jokes that don't work are either rewritten or not used again.

1. it's all about delivering the punch line.

2. if no one gets it then be quiet and wait for it - giving them time to laugh almost always works, while trying to explain the joke after saying it, kills it.

3. if you think the person might not get what you're saying, explain the terms you're gonna use briefly but without ruining the joke!

4. don't laugh before, during or after you say the joke, it over builds the suspence of the joke, so people expecting an impossibly incredible joke, will only hear a good one.

5. practice it on you're own or with someone who's opinion you don't care much about. if they laugh that's a confidence boost, if they don't then at least you know what you did wrong.

Read a really funny book and try to remember it. This must be really funny. Maybe you can design your own funny jokes but it gotta be funny and make some one laugh but not too much or too loud.
