صح النوم ايها العبيد ...

Quote: Affiliative Humor: Affiliative humour is used with the aim of creating positive bonds with others and making everyone feel comfortable. These are jokes that are not offensive at all and are universally funny. Narrations of funny events, puns, jokes about animals and knock-knock jokes all come under affiliative humor. Aggressive Humor: This involves “roasts”, insults and jokes cracked at the expense of others. Granted, these can be funny at times (when you’re not the one being made fun of), and there is a certain amount of creativity that goes into coming up with these wisecracks and insults, but can be incredibly damaging if not controlled or taken in the right spirit. Bullies tend to use this type of humour. Self-Enhancing Humor: If you’ve ever met someone who manages to laugh at themselves and find the absurdity in every situation while still remaining pleasant and optimistic, this person probably uses this type of humor. Self-enhancing humor is the perfect balance between taking things too seriously and taking them too lightly. People who have this style of humor can cope with stress much better while still remaining grounded and having a practical course of action. Self-Depreciating Humor: Although this is also essentially laughing at yourself, it doesn’t come from a place of optimism, which is the main difference between self-deprecating humor and self-enhancing humor. Self-depreciating humor is making fun of yourself in a way that can be extremely harsh and can make those around you feel uneasy if used excessively. People who use this are generally deeply insecure, and do it so that no one else can make fun of them. So just like aggressive humor is used by the bully, self-depreciating humor is used by the bullied. Aside from affecting our interactions with others, studies have shown that humor can be used as a “mature” type of defense mechanism, which a lot of people use to deal with stressful situations. You probably remember that one kid from elementary school who started laughing when he fell down when most children would scream, or your friend who couldn’t stop giggling right before a big test while everyone else was frantically revising. https://www.ewellnessexpert.com/blog/301/humor-as-a-defense-mechanism
