Resumen del Editor
Sure, you might be funny, but looks aren't everything! This guide offers an in-depth look at laughter, humor, and comedy.
Do you want to be more humorous? Have you ever watched someone effortlessly make a group laugh and wished you knew their magic? Well, wonder no more. The mystery of charisma is finally unveiled; the fallacy of "you either have it, or you don't" has been laid bare. Anyone can learn to make people laugh.
Observing a couple of surprisingly simple rules, Make People Laugh is a comedic tour de force, as it explores all the facets of laughter. The lessons and techniques found within this guide will help you write your own jokes, as you learn about the how's and why's of wordplay, slapstick, conversational comedy, and beyond. On the quest for a belly laugh, no grin is too tiny, no joke left behind. Understanding the biological imperative to laugh and social desire will give you a leg up when you try to get them going.
You’ll learn:
- Timing isn’t an important thing—it’s the only thing; how to practice, improve, and master the perfect time and place for any joke
- Why jokes work—the universal commonality that almost everything you might laugh at has in common
- Why more than 50 percent of laughter you hear is not in response to intended humor—how to take advantage of that fact
- The power of silence and the unspoken joke—physical humor beyond slapstick and props
- And so much more
Follow the seven easy steps in Make People Laugh today and start making merry tomorrow! With easy, practical lessons and simple, fun homework, you will be the life of the party in no time, or at least capable of consistent comedy. Turn your lazy bones into funny bones, and you will have made the world a better place.
Let’s get started!

Or that ought was the original past tense of owe? Or that the suffix -ly in adverbs is actually a remnant of the word like? And have you ever wondered why some people from New Orleans sound as if they come from Brooklyn?

Humor, like pornography, is famously difficult to define. We know it when we see it, but is there a way to figure out what we really find funnyand why? In this fascinating investigation into the science of humor and laughter, cognitive neuroscientist Scott Weems uncovers what’s happening in our heads when we giggle, guffaw, or double over with laughter. While we typically think of humor in terms of jokes or comic timing, in Ha! Weems proposes a provocative new model.

Or that ought was the original past tense of owe? Or that the suffix -ly in adverbs is actually a remnant of the word like? And have you ever wondered why some people from New Orleans sound as if they come from Brooklyn?

Humor, like pornography, is famously difficult to define. We know it when we see it, but is there a way to figure out what we really find funnyand why? In this fascinating investigation into the science of humor and laughter, cognitive neuroscientist Scott Weems uncovers what’s happening in our heads when we giggle, guffaw, or double over with laughter. While we typically think of humor in terms of jokes or comic timing, in Ha! Weems proposes a provocative new model.

Let’s face it: we all want a seat at the cool table, a great job, and loads of money. But most of us won’t be able to achieve this widely accepted, black-or-white, definition of winning, which makes us feel like failures, that we’re destined to a life of loserdom. That’s the conventional wisdom. It’s also crap, according to comedian and cult hero Chris Gethard, who knows a thing of two about losing. Failing is an art form, he argues; in fact, it’s the only the way we’re ever going to discover who we are, what we really want, and how to live the kind of life we only dreamed about.
