to be a joke, and it never lands

this isn't exclusive to online either. I know plenty of ppl like this irl too. It's ubiquitous. Some people think they're so goddamn funny that they always have to be "on" for their "crowd"

It's like Quips in Regular Show, if anyone's seen that episode

It's one of the most fucking annoying personalities I can think of

Also some people laugh too hard at anything these days, they try too hard. Is it the virus?

Sounds like my old roommate

the amount of times I had to hear a joke about balls or buttholes squeezed into every sentence got to be unbearable

if you think this is satire you have definitely never met the type of person who tries to make every sentence a joke

My mom is like that, she's always talking too loud and interrupting everyone while trying to be funny, and she just repeats the same jokes over and over.

It also actually shows the person cares about their subjects. I'll take that over someone posting a troll statement and waiting for others to fight each other for them while having no real opinion themselves.

Ngl TC, this is definitely me. And tbh I don't mind people not liking me for it. It definitely ain't for everybody.

Well, at least when I'm with my friends that think I'm funny. With others I just stick to small talk.

Theres also a big difference between the type of person TC is talking about and people with light hearted and easygoing personalities, who probably joke more than the average person

those people are normally a delight and actually know when its appropriate to turn it off

The thing with friends is stuff will be funnier just cause it's you doing it. There's the "haha, that's ------- for you!". It's like when you watch a show and the characters jokes kind of fall flat until you actually learn the character and realize how the statements are funny because of their personality.

Also physical elements. Like, Im scrawny, so if I say some tough guy hardboy shit, it comes off as way more funny than if someone who could actually muscle people said it. There's a Napoleon complex element to the joke.

As one of these people, the main reason is to amuse myself.

I am fully aware of my track record and would have given up like 20 years ago if I cared about making people laugh.

Remember when a user here made a topic about how worried they were because their senior dog had been missing for days and you felt the need the make a joke out of it?

most if not all of your jokes are stupid.

I knew a kid like that in high school. Outside the constant jokes which no one liked, his personality was extremely shallow.

TC you would hate me. Not only are my jokes absolute shit tier, I tell them hundreds of times. I also do "your mom" stuff, and crazy exaggerations and non sequiturs. My dad jokes aren't even clever.

For example: You know why the city of Baltimore is called Baltimore? Because nobody wants to live in a place called Baltiless.

If it's any consolation, so far you're funnier than OP.

Don't worry about it. Tc thinks everyone is trying to be funny. He's been complaining about it for a long time. He admitted himself to having anger problems and getting in trouble for it irl.
