Today you'll learn 6 easy ways to make people laugh and love being around you.

1 way you can do this is to purposefully misunderstand something obvious.

Okay, I haven't taken a lot of pregnancy tests in my day.

I did pee on it, so don't look at the pee part.

The key here is to act so oblivious, it would be impossible to miss that you're joking.

Was that the original Iron Man, or is it 1 of the sequels that you screen-tested for?

I don't, I don't, I'm not aware of the ins and outs.

I know that wonderful actor Robert Downey Jr.

As you just saw, playing dumb is a great way to get a laugh anytime someone asks you about something that didn't go well.

It can help transform a potentially awkward or negative conversation into a playful 1 where you look confident and fun.

Now, if all you do is play dumb in conversation, it will get stale fast, so you want to mix it in with some of the other jokes in this video.

For the next easy way to make people love being around you, watch this clip of Dwayne Johnson answering the question, How tall is Kevin Hart?

Legit, legit, legit because I know you're my best friend.

That's an example of a sincerity fakeout.

You set expectations that you're going to say something sincere, then you undercut those expectations for a laugh.

Now, you don't want to do this all the time.

It's important to be sincere when you want to connect with someone.

But especially if the conversation is feeling a little boring, a sincerity fakeout is a great way to make people laugh and create a more fun vibe.

Here's 1 more example, this time with Ryan Reynolds answering a question about how he got involved with aviation gin.

11 years ago I remember reading a Deadpool comic and feeling like this is a once in a lifetime connection.

and I was like, I guess a once in a lifetime connection can happen twice.

And then we had our children, and that's when I realized that I love gin.

You just saw a great way to set yourself up to make people laugh, the three-point list.

Set your joke up by listing off 2 genuine things and then make the third thing you say an obvious joke.

You can use this joke in almost any small talk conversation, specifically when someone asks you something like why you like your job or what you do for fun.

In this next clip, Nikki Glaser uses this joke when describing what makes her inner beauty.

This joke gets a laugh because it plays with people's expectations.

You deliberately lead them 1 way and then surprise them with an unexpected twist.

Once you've established a playful vibe like this, there's another easy way you can make people laugh.

Exaggerate so much, it's impossible to take you seriously.

For an example of what this looks like, listen to Theo Vaughn and Joe Rogan talk about the time Theo went 4 days without food.

I probably lost about 4 pounds, the pounds I needed too, you know?

But I got clear, man, and I could hear, swear to God, y'all could hear somebody fold a piece of bread from 80 feet away, bro.

I could hear a skittle hit the cement across the street.

Almost any time you want to get a laugh, you can just describe something using over-the-top exaggeration.

For another example, listen to Tim Dillon talk about the Ellen Workplace controversy.

You're allowed to be nasty to people, you're accomplished, you're a comedian, you did the whole thing.

What you're not allowed to do is have a Guantanamo Bay situation in the backstage of your show where everybody's walking around afraid for their life and It's like Abu Ghraib where they're hooked up to wires.

This is especially powerful if you're being negative.

In general, no 1 likes to listen to someone complain.

But if you use over-the-top exaggeration, you can make it fun for the people around you.

For example, listen to Ryan Reynolds discussing working with a child actor for the first time.

I mean, you know, when you're working with a child actor You first thing you think is I want to take my life with fire, right?

Now let's talk about arguably the most charismatic joke you can make a joke that elevates the other person.

They combine humor with a tease that puts the other person down, like this.

Playful teasing can absolutely make people laugh, but if this is your only form of humor, it can leave the person wondering if you actually like them.

On the flip side, if all you do is tell jokes that elevate other people, you're on the risk of seeming like a suck-up.

It's when you mix complimentary jokes in with other styles of humor that people will really like being around you.

If you aren't sure exactly how to make jokes that elevate other people, start with your trusty new habit of over-the-top exaggerations.

On the flip side, when making jokes about yourself, a great way to make people laugh is self-deprecating humor.

Most people do the opposite of this, they tease other people and try to make themselves look good.

This can work, but you run the risk of hurting people's feelings and looking like a tryhard.

Ironically, when you poke fun at yourself, you can make yourself look extremely likable and confident.

Here's an example of this done well with Hugh Jackman talking about his dad.

Ben Helsing got terrible reviews, and Hugh's willingness to joke about it gets everyone around him laughing.

If you worry that this will make you look bad, start by teasing yourself for things you aren't actually insecure about.

That way if other people double down on your joke, it won't hurt your feelings.

That said, this is just a guideline and once you're comfortable with these jokes, you can joke about whatever you want.

Most people are scared to make jokes like this because they want to look perfect so that people will like them.

But people don't judge you for having imperfections, they judge you on how you perceive your imperfections.

By joking about them, you show that you're confident being seen as you are.

Now 1 good general habit when you're making a joke at your own expense?

This lets other people know it's okay to laugh.

For example, watch Bill Burr tell Joe Rogan a story where he has to apologize to his wife for an angry outburst.

I put my head to the side of her head and I just go, I'm sorry.

At the end of the day, for teasing yourself or teasing others, it all comes down to your intention and where you're coming from.

If you're insecure and teasing yourself because you're in a race to do it before other people do, that will come through.

If you're insecure and teasing other people to try to bring them down, that comes through too.

When you're teasing yourself or someone else purely to have fun, not trying to play a weird social hierarchy game, then you can naturally flow between the 2 and people will sense your intention is simply to create a fun conversation.

Now, making people laugh is obviously just 1 part of a conversation.

Whether you're looking for a new mentor, more friends, or more dates, there's a lot more to forming a connection with someone than what we've covered here.

You have to be able to confidently start a conversation, hook them in the first few minutes so that they want to learn more about you, and then build a strong enough connection that they genuinely want to see you again.

If you'd like a specific 30-day blueprint for being able to do all of that, you may like our program Charisma University.

It's the fastest way I know of to take your confidence and charisma to the next level.

Just listen to some of the things our past members have said.

I interviewed at dozens of places for jobs after medical school.

At the end of 1 of my interview days, the doctor pulled me aside and said that I had, hands down, the best interview out of everybody, and they would love to have me at their program.

They ranked me number 1, and it's my current job.

After going through Charisma University, I've made more friends, have higher self-esteem, and can more easily talk to people I don't know.

In 6 weeks, I went from being socially awkward with few friends to the life of every event I attend.

I also went from having serious girl problems to dating the girl of my dreams.

We have a 60-day money-back guarantee, so you can take the entire program, see if it changes your life, and if not, give yourself a full refund from right inside the course.
