Is a good sense of humour always a good thing?.?

It's a good thing but you have to be cautious of oether people's feelings.

You must be careful when using sarcasm for two reasons.

Some people consider sarcasm to be a 'smart alec' or degrading way to respond and get offended. They take the response as an affront for them asking the question. Probably not the result you are looking to achieve.

The second reason if the sarcasm is subtle some people will not realize it is sarcasm and they will think you meant what you said. I have a very dry wit and many times must tell people I was only joking. If I use this approach too often with the same person they feel their intelligence is being questioned.

I hope this helps you.

A good sense of humour always helps in so many situations in life. In yahoo answers it can help too. But sometimes it is good to be a little tactful with sensitive questions,that the asker is very serious about.

It is always a good thing,but sometimes good to think first. Also our personal sense of humour is funny to us,it can be hilarious. But to others it can be offensive or misunderstood. So in answers, we do need to keep that in mind. I was joking, and offended someone. Yet I had no intention of doing this at all. And it was on a funny question too!!

It is good for you to have a good sense of humour but sometimes people are not in "a good" mood and they can easily misunderstand something you have said.

The best thing is not to be too funny or too serious, too sarcastic or too straight... Most of all: I have learned that words have to be "measured". Sometimes the best thing to do is not to say anything.

I personally feel that a good sense of humor is the best thing going. However, based on personall experience, everyone doesn't share one's personal sense of humor or flippancy. So be prepared to receive considerable negative feedback from time to time. (again, from personal experience.)

sense of humor is always best. because you can tell the truth without hurting feelings and being silly and honest at the same time. and if someone is still stuffy about it, than they need to make big changes in the way they are living if they are too serious.

people who will stick around u for a long time are the ones who understand u n like u so it doesn't really matter. Its good to be not a fakeass.

Yes...I do. If your straight to the point, then be straight to the point, If its YOUR personality. Ever seen House the series?

All I know is that folks look at you funny when you snicker during a funeral.

No, it's not always a good thing.

Be true to yourself and answer questions honestly.That is what I do....A sense of humor is a must in this world.
