But that's it, they're pretending, they're emulating, but they're not understanding.
There's a man across the street who I met a couple of decades ago. He's from Ecuador. Yet he understands my humor. I have one person in my family that understands my humor. The rest of them don't. One does if it's pretty basic, like imitating a celebrity's voice, but that's it.
I had an ex who tested my humor during our first phone conversation. She wanted to see if I actually had one and I got hers, rather than simply laughing at the right time after the punchline was delivered. She had a problem with guys laughing on cue, and humor was very important to her.
So she did an Andrew Dice Clay bit (this was the '90s), and I started cracking up at a point BEFORE the joke was over. After I stopped laughing, I told her to continue. She said, no, it doesn't matter. But I wanted to hear the rest of the joke, the punchline. So she told me the rest, but told me the punchline didn't really matter because she was testing me on whether I would laugh at that point that I did or just waited till she got to the punchline. So I passed her test by laughing midway through, because that was actually the funny part.
hahaha.
Atoms also always compound things and think they got the perfect solution.
Yeah, I knew that was lame, but I just hadda,,,
