lol

Really got a big smile from me! HahaHAH. 😁

That sounds like something my best friend will say to her son when he's over his baby. Not even a year old yet :p But he's trying harder to grow up. He promised k bye

Kevin Nealon is a master of the craft.

This is one of those situations where help is if no help. Still have to watch the video for better explanation

Just told my friend I am the one who murdered his mother, he laughed so hard he cried.

@@tobubirole3097 facts. How’s someone gonna know what the fake out method is if they haven’t watched the video

@@tobubirole3097 I just list it for me, if you don't know what's on the list you can watch the video hahaha

8. Be yourself.

It's called deadpan comedy.

That's what she said

Like the people who direct the jungle ride at Disneyland

basically its people who are genuinely passionate about something and believe it or not when someone nerds out about his passion, in the right setting of course, its a very likable thing.

@@YiannisANO1911 it takes a lot more to be a charismatic DM than simply a passion for the game. That's why most DMs aren't as charismatic as Mercer, even though they're probably as passionate

woah, super interesting. I'd love to see a breakdown of people who are able to captivate and speak for extended periods

That is actually really easy. People are there for a purpose and want what is being given. It is true escapism

Would it be wise to be the butt of your own joke the first time you meet someone or once you get to know them more?

@@erenjeager5290 I would definitely do it in either scenario - it’s a good way to break the ice with someone new and always a good way to make an old friend laugh

I love to eat food while smoking weed on my KZfaq channel, to cure people’s boredom :)

Yeah, there’s a way to do it. Some people do it too much and it’s awkward. Especially when women roast themselves for how fat they are. It feels like there’s no right way to react to that.

Oh only in moderation? Oops..

A clear indicator of how miserable the existence of too many people is.

Allahu Akbar

What is looney tunes logic please?

Also, playing off of somebody else's joke isn't stealing... it is riffing. And it is mutually beneficial.

What about someone getting tired of never getting a straight answer from you, and who eventually realises you think your charisma is more important than their need to be taken seriously?

Practice makes perfect too, and you're totally right about making the focus the joke. I used to be a tourguide, and I also worked the ticket booth before the tours. I decided both as an ice breaker, and because I wanted to get better at wordplay, I would make puns of people's names. This might sound annoying, but people absolutely loved it, and i started a lot of conversation this way or got people laughing before we started my tour. It started out pretty difficult to come up with the puns, but after a week or two, someone would hand me their credit card and it would take me 2 seconds to think of something, and it also made other puns easier because suddenly my brain was on the lookout for that kind of wordplay. I feel like these actors get a lot of practice time in interviews, so their real-time whit gets a lot of exercise. Absurd humor like Ryan uses about calling his parents cannibals is the same way, it gets easier to think of jokes that his that right balance of absurdity and good humor when you do it often.

You answered your question on how to do it in real time, with your last sentence. You just gotta practice: the more you put your self out there and practice these techniques, the more effortless it will become until being charismatic is just who you are. Kinda like riding a bike, at first you have to think about every move and you will fail, bit you learn from failure and eventually you won't even have to think about it anymore, it just comes naturally.

I work in sales and make cold calls and your approach here absolutely works. I always try to break the ice with cracking a joke... it works 98/100 times and the other 2 times it's a little awkward but nothing too bad.

If he's upside down there's a built in set of jokes.

Maybe just turning him over on your way to English class would be more helpful.

@@Jeph629 & Thomas - you both got it wrong ; he's not inverted; toes over head - he's inverted; Inside Out ! - Now *THAT* should really get a laugh.

​​@@ittaiklein8541oh, that takes GUTS. (Intended)

my favourite version of this is as follows: "Who's that character from that cartoon?" "the one with the straw hat, scar under the eye, made of rubber?" "Ye, him!" "no idea who you're talking about"

Thanks, going to use this

What's the technique to that?

@@BananaRaid it takes long term practice but its essentially just to not take life too seriously. Its almost like self degrading humour, laughing honestly about your insecurities... but you must learn to love yourself 🙏

@@RussellClausse I was making more of a yolk. But now with your heartfelt answer I have egg on my face.

@@BananaRaid oh hahah ofc i just cant see your face through the screen lmao

@@RussellClausse Wouldn't be eggactly what you'd expect. Okay the puns are over. easy.

You have to have watched looney tunes.

1) go to your local acme store and buy an anvil. Did you see a cat? 2) find your a nearby high cliff and carry the anvil to the edge 3) throw the anvil over the cliff edge 4) aren't you glad I skipped over step 2.5 to tie the anvil to your ankle? 5) since you are still alive, return the anvil to acme. Realize you did see a cat. You did! You did! If you understood all of these references, hum a little Merry Melody.

@@rob99201 no, you have to get the ACME anvil by mail order.😁

Conan didnt forget anything

@@hgb0005 look at his body language. It's obvious that he did, he just recovered from it well enough that many people miss it and think it's part of the joke.

@@macroxela So he forgot the punchline 5 seconds after doing the joke the first time?

@@hgb0005 it's kind of obvious he did. Not sure how you don't see it. He literally said so as well.

Looking like he forgot the actual phrase and saying random funny stuff instead IS the punchline. Holy cow how much of this channel's audience are actual lizard people?

If one needs to watch a video about being genuine then how genuine could one be ?

Yeah, I'm the same. If I'm in a devil may care mood, I think I am consistently funniest person I know in real life, but I HAVE to be feeling it and in the mood, which I am mostly not... Especially lately.

Relatable!!

So smart!!!

Who is that

why not

James Spader's character on Boston Legal too!

@@dobrilabijelic1631 Never really watched that show but if it's James Spader then heck yeah.

But Al-Qaeda clearly hasn't heard of him.

His energy is suuuuuuper low......now.

Is that your cousin, Jack? I'm onto you!
