Are you able to laugh at yourself ?

I’m hilarious.

1) Yes, I always laugh at myself, even when things are going horribly wrong by other people’s standards.
2) I do.
3) I love it! But it doesn’t happen often because, normally, I’m the one playing pranks on my friends…but I know one of these days I’m going to get pranked and won’t know what hit me seeing as I have a few outstanding “unpaid prank debts” lol
4) Yup. Whenever something embarrassing happens first thing I do is call my brother and sister because they get a huge kick out of it, and then I tell my friends.

My borrowed philosophy is: don’t take life too seriously, no one gets out alive anyway ;)

I think it’s essential, otherwise you run the risk of having your head permanently inserted deep up your arse.

I find self-deprecation to be easy and often useful.

I never have played a prank on anyone and would hate to receive one.

I share embarrassing moments with family and friends (and have to be restrained from telling strangers if I think it is funny enough.) They reciprocate.

I am famous for it. After the most difficult and painful breakup I ever had, which was with my first girlfriend, I walked out to my car with tears streaming from my eyes, just barely able to hold it together.
I then realized I locked the keys in my car. I stood there and laughed.

Yes, particularly when it involves mirrors and nudity.

^^^Milo here; I too find it very easy to laugh at you when it involves mirrors and nudity.

Have I mentioned I’m a dog person?

^^^MIlo here; Big whoop. That doesn’t change the image of your naked body in that mirror. I bet the dogs are hooting with laughter also.

I’d better be; otherwise I’d be terribly depressed.I also use age as an excuse for some of the stupid blunders. I share my biggest bloopers with friends who invariably sympathize. I went to a meeting with 2 other people at a restaurant. I waited. I put my feet up on the banquet in the waiting area and promptly fell asleep. . . for 2 hours. I had the wrong day, but a nice nap. Nobody bothered me and the wait staff had only small smiles when I finally woke up. I went back the next week when the meeting actually occurred. ha ha

^^^I Hope you’re a big tipper..

^^^ If it was an IHop and the small waiting area an alcove was off the main line of traffic, do I still have to tip generously? There was nobody there but me.

It would have been nice. The staff provided an extra service at no charge.

I will laugh at myself in front of others. But inside, not so much. It’s not that I don’t see how ridiculous or silly or funny I might be. It’s that I feel like I don’t count when people laugh at me. It may be in fun, but I still feel lessened.

Yesterday I farted in front of my boyfriend for the first time. We have been together for over 6 years. I had to laugh at myself otherwise I would have cried!!!
