How to Be Funny (http://www.rinkworks.com/funny/)

Do you think this page accurateley describes humor? Is there more to it than this? This page interests me.

Maybe this is why you're not funny.

Some stuff on that site is kinda funny. The beginning was slow and had a contradiction though as far as I'm concerned.

That article or whatever it is sounds kind of stupid, I think. It's not that easy to describe humor. Things aren't just funny on their own. It depends on the time, place, the type of the people and almost everything.

Trying to be funny is one of the most pathetic things that a person can do. You can look better with the right clothes and makeup, you can sound smart by reading and stealing smart people's thought and telling them to the others. But you can't look funny. If you're not funny then you cannot change it. And if you insist on being a funny person you can only be irritating.

I'm really, reaaaally not funny. And I almost never try to be. And I'm happy wşth it. Why should I bother with making people laugh. It's more fun to be the silent one and laugh at jokes. I'm not an entertainer after all.

Anyway, long story short, that article is useless. I'm checking the "how to be romantic" one though. God knows I really need it.

After reading past the first couple paragraphs I was almost certain that it was sarcastic; the author is not actually trying to provide sure-fire ways of being funny. With that in mind, the article itself is not that funny save for a few subtleties as far as I am concerned.

It's gotta be sarcastic... however, it's true that very little of it is actually funny, even sarcastically.
