Research for comedies

Comedies, everyone loves it, don't cha? :) haha.

as mr. charles said that no one doesn't like to laugh. laughter is our best medicine and a way to start a friendship. comedies are always my favorite type of movie. :) 

what is laughter? :D
"Laughter is a part of human behavior regulated by the brain, helping humans clarify their intentions in social interaction and providing an emotional context to conversations. Laughter is used as a signal for being part of a group — it signals acceptance and positive interactions with others." by wikipedia.

For me, i might just say laughter is a expression when i'm happy. [:



So, what  makes people laugh? :D :) :} :] :v :> 

1. most laughter did not follow what looked like jokes. People laughed at the end of normal sentences, in response to unfunny comments or questions such as “Look, it’s Andre,” or “Are you sure?”. Even attempts at humour that provoked laughter didn’t sound that funny. Provine reports that the lines that got the biggest laughs were ones such as “You don’t have to drink, just buy us drinks,” and “Do you date within your species?”. 

2. laughter always involves a similar pattern of whooping noises. Deaf people who have never heard a sound still make laughing noises. The laughing noises produced by humans share many of the acoustic properties of speech, further evidence laughter is hijacking the brain and body apparatus that we use for breathing and talking.

3. Just listening to someone laugh is funny.

4. We laugh because we feel like it, because our brains make us, and because we want to fit in socially.

no, not this. :) below! 



Styles of Humor


(A) The first type of humor takes life and makes it funny. It could be a normal situation or event. You would simply take it and turn it into a joke. Many refer to this as the "Laugh at Life" humor style. 

(B) The next humor style is the sarcastic type. This type of humor involves being a bit dark, sharp and even a little on the biting side. When watching those in stand up comedy that specialize in sarcasm, you will find that their expressions, their words and the way that they present themselves make the sarcasm extremely funny.


(C) The third most popular type of humor is pointing fun at the expense of others. You should be especially cautious when doing this and make it general, unless you have previous consent from the individual that you will be poking fun at.
