Funny
Congratulations! You scored 66%!
You are just 'funny' You fail a few times when you tell a joke but sometimes you can hit a corker! You are not considered particularly funny but every now and then you shock people with a beauty!!


i've spent the last 10 minutes looking for good SOH tests on the net (eventually gave up and went for okcupid) and they all concentrate almost soley on telling jokes.
that's not the only way to be funny you know. this kinda got me annoyed...
there's such a thing as wit, irony, 'sharp', observational (and nutty/silly) humour, etc... other ways to be funny

like i went out for a curry with some friends last night. i didn't tell one joke during the whole evening (maybe an anecdote or two i guess), but frequently had people laughing their asses off (and one dude spraying beer all over the place, heh). i actually don't tell jokes, full stop (period), but i still consider myself to be (and am considered by others to be) a pretty amusing dude... stupid jokes
wit > jokes
what do you lot think?

wit+jokes>wit>jokes

I win

I CBF doing the test and I completely agree. Jokes aren't funny on their own, wit and action are. :)

Very humerous!
Congratulations! You scored 84%!
You are funny - you are regarded within your circle of friends as 'the funny one'. You are Chandler from friends and can deliver a joke with exceptional results!! Well done funny Boy/Girl!!!

Very humerous!
Congratulations! You scored 76%!

Humerous, eh?

Hehehehe.

We didn't just borrow it, we refined it. :D

OK, British humour rocks. Case example: Red Dwarf.

And....awwwww....poor PM. What is there to get cut up about? Just get drunk like me and forget everything. Then it's all good. :)

however, don't let me stop you! lol

Pro funnier
Congratulations! You scored 87%!
How funny are you?! You could force a nun to smile from 60 paces! You are a hit with the opposite sex due to your funniness and can sniff out a good joke amongst a pit of ammonia! You should consider turning pro as this is your true calling in life! I salute you!

You'd think I'd have something witty to say wouldn't you?

Very humerous!
Congratulations! You scored 73%!

My test tracked 1 variable How you compared to other people your age and gender:

You scored higher than 28% on funniness

Apparently I scored the lowest out of everyone that's taken the test. Just 'cause my humour's more sophisticated... *becomes bitter*

Funny...? Dang it I was the Jester of II and they just call me funny?! 23 percent!?

This test sucks!

Dude, you eat vindaloo too? Vindaloo rocks. But you should drink. At least occasionally. No reason not to.

Haaaaa....I just broke a glass....there is broken glass on my floor....haaaa....

OK...i'm done with this bottle of whiseky i think...

Very humerous! [sic]

I must confess that I am deeply insulted at being compared to someone from Friends. But yeah, I agree with PM that humour is not all about telling jokes. I rarely tell jokes, but can nonetheless make my friends laugh an awful lot; I think a lot of humour is based on the way people phrase and articulate things, rather than merely the content of what they say.

Funny
Congratulations! You scored 65%!

I only got a 60%, which leads me to believe that the other 40% must be pure, unfiltered awesome.

:mad:
this is angers me, i am funny. maybe not on here, but i am damned funny in real life

Very humerous!

The Sense of humour Test

Egads, no! If I had to be compared to anybody on friends I think I'd opt for Phoebe.

I'm not funny in the least, the world is the true comedian!;)

like i went out for a curry with some friends last night.

I don't think it's very funny that I haven't had a curry since I moved to this god-forsaken backwater, and people on NS just keep on talking about them. :(

I need a 'waaaah' icon. :(
