    people link it to being up yourself, lame, arrogant, de-humourising.

    what do you think?

    personally, if i make a joke, it means i find it funny, and i laugh at things that are funny. why would you make a joke if you didnt think it was funny?
    i always laugh at my own jokes if theyre particularly funny, unless im making use of a humour i know someone else gets, just for the pleasure of someone laughing at a joke.

    do you laugh at your own jokes?

    i just dont see why people who never laugh or giggle at their own joke-making make a joke in the first place, if not, as i do sometiems, for the fun attention of being a comedian?

    i make jokes that i know only i find funny, so that I can laugh. why not? as long as it doesnt upset anyone...

    Yep, I laugh at my own jokes sometimes. Well, often. Sometimes I'm even the only one laughing. :)

    Does anyone else sometimes randomly remember something funny and just start giggling to themselves?

    I never remember jokes..so i can't laugh when i tell jokes... but being 'funny' is something else... people laugh at what i say sometimes and obviosly sometimes i say things to be funny , i only laugh if the person clearly misses the joke or falls for the joke..not that it is always funny, but i laugh anyway.

    I am constantly doing that!!

    I've come to a point that I just don't really care what other people think.
    It happens in public all the time, I remember something funny, or I just make something up and start laughing. I try my best to hide it, but people can always tell. Specially at work or in public transit.

    I think my jokes are pretty funny, I think a lot of people just don't understand my sense of humor.
