      If you have to explain a joke, it’s probably not funny.

      I got it and it still wasn’t funny. Maybe you’re just not funny.

        If you have to explain a joke, it’s probably not funny. I got it and it still wasn’t funny.

        That would be enough by itself, harsh but reasonable.

        Maybe you’re just not funny.

        Now that’s just mean and uncalled for.

          I guess the only criticism you’re used to is praise.

          That would distort how you perceive your humor.

            Actually the fist statement you made is a criticism on the joke.

            The second statement is a generalized assumption on OPs character traits.

            To assume someone just isn’t funny (in general) by reading one of their comments reveals a lot about how dense you are.
