DRY SENSE OF HUMOR
Apr 29th, 2008 by admin
I like just shouting out random sarcastic things. If one of my girlfriends is stammering on and on about gaining a half pound or how I forgot her birthday or that I was looking at some other girl who was wearing short shorts, I suddenly yell, “But what about my diabetes treatment?” Most of the time, after that, they just stare at me, speechlessly. After all, how can anyone properly react to something like that? Actually, one time, this girlfriend of mine named Lynn responded by saying that she didn’t know that I had diabetes and asked when I took my insulin shots. She said she’d help me with them if I really needed it. Then it was my turn to stare at her, speechlessly. People sometimes have a hard time telling if I’m kidding or not since I don’t tend to change my tone when I speak. It’s what called “a dry sense of humor.” It constantly mystifies my parents and teachers who don’t know whether to think deeply about what I’ve said, laugh along with everyone else, or punish me somehow. This makes me sound worse than I actually am. In fact, this is making it sound like I see the world and everyone in it as merely tools to provide for my own self-amusement.
