Humor-Laughter Connection

A sense of humor can be honed and developed. Personally, I
think that is a good idea seeing that humor can be used to trigger laughter. It
is very subjective, however. What your
brain perceives as “funny,” results from a mismatch between what your
brain expected and what actually happened—which triggers laughter if you are
open to it. For example, you see someone walking down the street and suddenly
slipping on a banana peel. Part of your brain hopes there was no injury; the
other part laughs because it was so unexpected. I enjoy oxymorons. “Soft rock,
good grief, sweet sorrow, jumbo shrimp, exact estimate, original copy, head
butt.”
