I dont get how to become funnier. I dont want you guys to tell me practice makes perfect, because it dousn't. Look at all the comedians that stuck at it, and in the end they weren't funny in fact they were NOT funny. You guys say watch comedy and stand up. I rented everything i thought was funny and spent hours watching it, and i can honestly say no improvement. I tried to not be funny, and i the same results. The best advice was be honest some things you think will make others laugh, but i dont know how to improve at being funny. I was hoping you guys can help me with this.
"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.
Mystery that is becoming funny? A puzzle i want solved

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
Being funny isn't about 'learning' other peoples techniques, it's a 'feeling' that you have, some people are just funny because it's the way they are! what you really have to do is find out what type of personality you have and get the best out of it.
what you can try is be more relaxed about things, dont take life too seriously, be honest about who you are and your abilities.
sometimes I can be in a funny mood and sometimes in a boring mood, it's how you feel at the end of the day.

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.
For starters, learn what irony means.Rint said:Yea i dont care i just want advice.

I actually have a similar problem. Alot of people think I'm funny, more then a few have suggested I do stand up comedy, but the problem is, I can't be funny on purpose.
If I tell a joke 99% of the time it falls flat. It actually drives me nuts, I've gotten people to crack up, but not on purpose, I can't see to find the damn on/off switch for humor. Somehow when it happends, it just well... flows.

exactly. dont sit there and try to be funny. cracking jokes at every little thing gets old after awhile. just live life and say wat u feel. enjoy urself. when having fun u should focus on entertaining urself, and most times people will catch on and entertain themselves right with u. if u focus on trying to entertain everyone else u will never get anywhere. it is not your job to be their personal clown. be your own personal clown.ExploringOne said:I actually have a similar problem.

people will catch on if u sit there and try too hard to be funny, and then they will think u are not funny.

It's more about finding your style and letting the humor come from that rather than memorizing a ton of jokes.

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
