I frequently look around social media for ten minutes before thinking, “I’ve never had an authentic experience.” On the internet, people share a wide range of related things, some of which can occasionally hit too close to home. Finding the humour in it is definitely the best course of action, so how about we do that together?
Thanks to the Ends Humour Instagram page, we have some jokes for you on everything and anything that you might find relatable. Despite the fact that humour is subjective, you could find yourself saying, “Hey, me too!” after reading these.

Interesting things about people’s sense of humour include the fact that some individuals like fart jokes, others like to be afraid, and yet others prefer their humour to be raunchy and full of filthy jokes. However, how can we cultivate a sense of humour? Is it something we are born with or something we learn? And might we come to appreciate the humour that we once hated?
According to experts, our sense of humour begins to emerge at six weeks of age. According to some research, 50% of study participants were able to recognise humour by the time they were two months old, indicating that babies as young as one month old can enjoy it. Half of the infants began making jokes by the time they were 11 months old.

Naturally, toddlers laugh about nearly anything at such a young age. One-year-olds liked humour that elicited a response from others, the researchers discovered. This includes taunting, revealing hidden bodily parts, frightening others, and potty humour. They also enjoyed posing as other people or animals, for instance.
In contrast, two-year-olds’ sense of humour was a little more complex. Their humour involves language since they already possess some language skills, such as mislabeling items and playing with ideas (e.g., “Dogs say’moo'”). They also had a tendency to be a little cruel, taking pleasure in taunting and attacking other people.

Children begin to understand puns and pranks at the age of three. As kids learn filthy words and find it hilarious to use them without fully understanding their meaning, they also begin to understand social norms. We obviously continue to like this kind of humour well into adulthood. Many adults appreciate a nice fart, a decent pun (dad jokes, hello?), or a good dose of profanity in stand-up comedy.

Depending on who we are around, we may or may not find anything funny. We are thirty times more likely to laugh when we are with other people, according to scientists, who claim that laughing is a social phenomena. Sophie Scott, a cognitive science professor at UCL, argues that if we like and know the people we’re with, we’ll laugh even more.

This is the source of the comedy laugh track. Charley Douglass, a sound engineer for CBS, devised a strategy in 1950 to combat live audiences’ inappropriate laughter. He began recording snorts, chuckles, loud laughs, and other types of laughing. Men, women, and children were all recorded by him. The idea was to provide viewers at home a more immersive experience, simulating being in a packed theatre or a studio.

The device Douglass created was dubbed the “laff box.” He could generate any kind of sequence of laughing with a single press of a button on his machine, which resembled a typewriter. There were exactly 320 laughs on 32 tape loops in the laff box. Ten distinct laughs were included in each loop. You might hear the same laughter in several TV episodes since they would repeat in the same order each time.
