someone laughs at a joke,there will usually be more than one reason that makes him
laugh — and the more reasons there are,the more powerful the joke will be.
I was attending a stand-up comedy show in Egypt,and when the manstarted to make
fun of pedestrians crossing streets,everyone laughed their heads off.The main reason
why those people strongly laughed was that almost all of them felt angry towards
pedestrians who crossed streets carelessly.The joke wasn’t only funny,but it also
made the audience feel that they were right about being angry at those
pedestrians.That is,people were laughing both because of the funny joke and because
of the happiness experienced as a result of the psychological support they got.
The better a joke makes a person feel,and the more it includes other
psychological factors,the more the person will like it.For example,if you envy one
of your friends,and someone tells a joke that is funny and,at the same time,makes
your friend seem stupid,then you will probably laugh at it louder than if you
