I can laugh so much about something and people are like what??. But it's hilarious to me. I remember once working with this other Cancerian and we would be sitting infront of my computer working on something and I would start laughing about something I just noticed or saw and then so would he...he would just get it straight away like he knew totally what I was laughing about without me even saying what it was.

It's usually when I just state something flatly...something obvious...I'm not trying to be funny. I'm just stating an observation. But for whatever reason, it turns out to be funny. Maybe the humor is in acknowledging something that others wouldn't have? Or maybe it's in the delivery?

I'm not always as quick with the verbal comebacks.

It’s mostly silly irreverent and just plain zany, which explains why I personally laugh at the dumbest things. I notice this especially when I meet up or connect with Female Cancers, there is this moon influenced humor in which we just seem to crack each other up. We laugh or more truthfully, I laugh, at the dumbest jokes, appreciate physical humor and have treasure trove of anecdotes that are just simply funny. Male cancers I have experienced have a much more satirical, cynical biting approach, much like Cancerian George Saunders, who was very ironic and droll, and who killed himself because he just got bored.

I make a snide/witty/sarcastic/highbrow/lowbrow remark and I get the deer-in-head-lights stare. It's kinda creepy. On the upside, my BF mostly gets my humor and I get his, we crack each other up all the time and people look at us both funny, (he's a Gemini). And on a rare occassion, and this is the best, I'll meet somebody at a party who's like me and we're the only one's tuned into each other's humor, so we're cracking up across the room from each other and no one else get's it. It's so cool to find someone else who's on that same whacky wavelength!

I see things as funny that other people just don't "get." And people who can make me laugh, and can laugh with me seem to end up being my best friends.
