@pettytalk saidHumour can be recognised as being something someone finds humorous; therefore humour is defined by subjectively. Similar to leadership which can be recognised by followership.
However, I fail to see it, although others may have a keener eye for humor.
Edit; I’m not sure having a keen eye for humour is a thing.

This one I heard from a friend, but it didn't make me laugh because it was an annoying joke.
Why did the person who craved attention start a reality TV show? Because they thought that if they couldn't get noticed in real life, maybe they could become famous for being the most annoying contestant ever – after all, fame is just another word for attention, right?

Galen spoke of humors four,
Each with its own core,
To balance them, he did implore.

However using the thread ID will always take the reader to the first page. If you want to link to a particular page and even a particular post then open the thread at the right page, scroll down the ...[text shortened]... ir screen.
It’s a useful tip when dealing with some of the more scurrilous dishonest types here.

@ghost-of-a-duke saidProvided your adversaries are chivalrous and worthy opponents, substitute humor with a sword, and then have a fencing match. We'll see who gets the point first.
Humour is only truly successful when even your adversary tips their hat.
