Why is it that...

[bud_2005]

Some people can say things that aren't that funny but people will still laugh but some people can say very funny things every once in while and then people thinks its stupid. I hate it how a popular person could say something and people will think its funny but I could say the exact same thing and people will just think I'm stupid.

joke-telling is a true art......

it isn't just in the words, it's in the timing, the delivery, the style, the attitude..
plus it helps if people like the person, because it makes it easier for them to laugh
