I often go on social media and after 10 minutes of scrolling I think to myself: "I've never had an authentic experience." People share all kinds of relatable things online, and some of them hit a little too close to home sometimes. It's probably best to find the humor in it, so, maybe let's do that together?

Here we have for you some jokes about everything and anything that you might be able to relate to, courtesy of the Ends Humour IG page. They say humor is subjective, but who knows, maybe you'll find yourself saying: "Hey, me too!" after reading these?

Sense of humor is an interesting thing: some people like fart jokes, others enjoy being scared, and some want their humor to be raunchy and filled with dirty jokes. But how do we develop a sense of humor? Is it in our nature or in our nurture? And can we learn to love the kinds of humor that we previously despised?

Experts say that we first start developing a sense of humor when we're about six weeks old. Some research suggests that babies as young as one month can appreciate humor, with 50% of the study's subjects appreciating humor at two months. By 11 months, half of the babies also started producing humor.

I am 58ish and I have often thought about doing this exact same thing. Buy me a nice mobile home, find me a well and stock up on non-perishables so I don't have to go to town to see people. Just me and my dogs enjoying life!

Some people just want to be bothered. Had a work colleague who complained that I always had to say hi in the mornings and was oh so cheery and fake. I stopped, then it was rude biatch can't even take a moment to be polite to people, can't even say hi.

Of course, at such a young age, toddlers laugh about almost anything. The researchers found that one-year-olds enjoyed humor that got a reaction from others. That includes toilet humor, scaring others, showing hidden body parts, and teasing. They also liked pretending to be something else, an animal, for example.

Two-year-olds, in turn, had a bit more sophisticated sense of humor. Because they already have some language capabilities, their humor involves language, like mislabelling things and playing with concepts (for example, saying, "Dogs say 'moo'"). They also had a bit of a mean streak, enjoying making fun of and being aggressive with others.

Little tiny acts, and words, of kindness make such a difference. I'd had a terrible morning in hospital, and was running to catch a bus. When I reached the bus, I was so flustered I couldn't find anything. The driver simply looked at me, smiled and said, "Go sit down. Take a moment. You can pay at the next stop." There was just the right amount of kindness and empathy.

At three years old, children start to get the hang of puns and tricks. They also start to grasp social rules, as they understand naughty words and find it very funny to use them without grasping their full meaning. Clearly, our appreciation for these types of humor carries well into our adulthood. There are plenty of grownups who enjoy a good fart bit, puns (dad jokes, hello?), or some hearty swearing in stand-up comedy.

When I would go to nightclubs mostly to dance, I would give the bartender a $20 bill (this was the late 80s-early 90s) and tell him to just give me ginger ale in a beer glass please and no alcohol as it would not mix well with my meds. So when someone would offer to buy me a drink, he would charge them for the beer but hand me a ginger ale "straight up" in a beer glass and no one knew. Oh and all sodas were free lol

Whether or not something will make us laugh can depend on who we are with. In fact, scientists say that laughter is a social phenomenon: we are 30 times more likely to laugh if we're with other people. We will laugh even more if we know and like the people that we're with, says Sophie Scott, a professor of cognitive science at UCL.

This is where the laugh track for sitcoms comes from. In 1950, the CBS sound engineer Charley Douglass came up with a way to fight the inappropriate laughter of live audiences. He started recording all kinds of laughter: big laughs, chuckles, snorts, etc. He recorded, men, women, and children. The point was to make the viewing experience for audiences at home more immersive like they're in the studio or a crowded theater.

Right?! They always seem the most unhappy people too. It's upsettingly sad they haven't done whatever work they need to do to feel better (and therefore, hopefully, lose the need to be mean).

Douglass called his invention the "laff box." With one push of a button on his typewriter-like machine, he could produce any type of sequence of laughter. The laff box had precisely 320 laughs on 32 tape loops. Each loop contained 10 individual laughs. Since the laughs would go in a loop, in the same sequence every time, you could hear the same laughs in many TV shows.

This is why people yearn so heavily for the 90s. We had new exciting technology but it hadn't taken over our entire lives yet

Evolutionary psychologist Geoffrey Miller believes that a good sense of humor "reveals intelligence, creativity, and other 'good genes' or 'good parent' traits." He claims that a sense of humor, like other creative abilities such as music and art, evolved through sexual selection as an intelligence indicator.

and who do you think taught them these things? it's like the egg and the dinosaur dilemma, where each generation of dinosaurs hatches an even wilder one.

No culture or community in the world is devoid of humor. It's hard to say whether a good sense of humor can be learned since it's a fundamental part of human nature. Researchers Caleb Warren and Peter McGraw believe that a sense of humor differs from person to person and from culture to culture.

The anger is real too. First at the company for the "setup" they trap you in with this being their hope. Then at yourself for forgetting to cancel. Life tip: many free trials will continue through their term even if you cancel them immediately. If they don't, immediately put a reminder on your phone's calendar to cancel the trial 3-5 days before it expires.

When someone farts at the dinner table, the children most definitely will find it funny, yet the mother might be annoyed by it. According to Warren and McGraw's conclusion that humor is the middle ground between something benign and a violation, the mother wouldn't think it is harmless, and the children don't know that flatulence at the dinner table is wrong. So, humor, after all, is subjective.

I got accused of snitching at work, but I don't think I did. Worked at a coffee shop and I saw one of the other baristas in the back huffing cans of whipped cream (sucking the gases out of the can to get buzzed). I initially didn't say anything, if he wanted to be an idiot, be an idiot, only person he's harming is himself. But boss caught on to how quickly we were going through whipped cream and found the guys stash of empty cans on top of the industrial fridge while cleaning. Why the guy didn't just throw them away is beyond me. Everyone stayed quiet, until the boss said he was just going to fire the four new recruits as he assumed it was a newish problem he figured it must be someone in the new staff. Well this made me sick, it would be so unfair for those people to lose their jobs and idiot boy gets away. So I told, idiot boy said I was a snitch, I think I morally did the right thing.

I have always provided a 'sorry, my Mam says no' service to my children. If they didn't want to do something, I was happy to be the excuse. There's been one occasion when it was 'Sorry, my wife is unwell, I need to be at home.'

Im a little concerned the northern lights are extending so far south now. Less magnetic field? More solar activity? Our entire planet is out of control, from the ppl who run it to the universal level. Or maybe Im just paranoid and should shut up and enjoy the show. idk

Google calendar and then repeated on my yearly paper diary and then the break-up items on daily to-do list that cannot be entirely written on diary. I cannot function without these.
