How to Come Up with Funny Conversation Topics

There are a lot of ways to come up with funny conversation topics. Here are some tried and true tactics to keep your talking partner laughing or forum laughing.

1. Look back at yourself. Think about what has happened to you recently that might be perceived as being funny. Something that is sure to get a laugh from the person you are talking to. You might find something bad that happened to you that you can laugh about now, and share it with others. We all have our bad moments that we look back and laugh about. Well, why not share it with others? It not only shares a piece of you with them, but also gives them something to laugh about in the process.
2. Buy a book of jokes, or a book with ways of making people laugh. Jokes can be used in many ways, and what is so neat about them is that they come in a variety of topics for everyday use. There are also many funny joke sites on the internet that you can browse for free, and grab your material from. The way to start a conversation with a joke is very simple. You can start with many different ways, but the most popular is “I heard this joke the other day, and I cracked up when I heard it. Mind if I share it with you?” See, that is not so hard, is it? You not only started to communicate with them, but you also gave them the choice on whether or not to hear the joke. If they do not want to hear it, that’s fine. Carry on with normal conversation afterwards.

1. Utilize your surroundings. Find something about the situation you are in that you might find funny, or can figure out a funny story about. Maybe you had a funny experience with a certain brand of clothing, or shoes, or know someone who did.

Note to self numbering is messed up.

I just open my mouth. Though, in hindsight, that's probably not something to be proud of.

Usually you do just go with the flow. It's very hard to actually think of something funny. Unless your audience is as sharp as you are, you might as well say anything. Like bubblegum-bum or fishman. Of course, one-liners are always hilarious (I used to give one out regularly in my psychology classes....ah those were the days) but very few are capable of performing them. Especially on request.

My friend has an elite circle of humans that laugh at every joke he cracks on me.

I've always found that someone finds something to laugh at regarding me, whoever the person is. It's very disconcerting believe me, it's not nice always being the butt of someones jokes.

If you try of be funny that way, you can never really be funny. Get the gist, kid?

I agree.

Being funny comes from telling the truth and being real. People will find you funny because you are telling the truth (and it hits close to home).

[Yanal]

Yes whenever I speak the truth somehow I'm funny.

And you're not funny when you admit you're funny. That's another rule you might want to write down.
