hi reeyan I think you can say he who jokes is a joker but of
course some use this as a derogatory slang term,oh hes just a joker but if you tell jokes yes I think you would be a joker, as we call someone who teases a teaser, or someone who sings a song a lolsinger,so why do we need to get mad when someone has a great sense of humor and makes us laugh, we should be a good tag on the word joker meaning one who tells jokes and makes us laugh. thumbupwink


myLot reputation of 85/100. Hatley (20684)   ranked 602 out of 2,742 in jokes  1 month ago

error alert--- we should use a good tag on the word joker meaning one who tells jokes and makes us laugh.

joking has different meanings too, reeyan.

If you say something very funny, I can say,, awe,, what a joker you are and it is in FUN. YOU laugh with me and we are happy.. yes you are then a joker

BUT!

If you say to me, "I heard you will lose your job soon"..

Reeyan.. You will be shocked and look me in the face and say," Are you joking???" and I will say "NO of course not,, What do you think, I would joke about something like that???" I would be offended.

In this case, 'are you joking' is an expression of shock.. it does not mean a funny joking it means a cruel joking.. there is the difference


myLot reputation of 86/100. reeyan (661)   ranked 222 out of 2,742 in jokes  1 month ago

Hi fjaril


You point of view is also a dimension of this discussion . But if as you have said I ever asked you then it is go more close to insulting than joke.

I think inocent sense of humour with witty is joke. But if it anyway catch the character of voulgure then it will be something like insult.
What you say,,,,,,,,,,,


myLot reputation of 99/100. fjaril (4331)   ranked 10 out of 2,742 in jokes  1 month ago

yes, it CAN be vulgar, You must choose your audience carefully, You cannot say vulgar things in a joking way to just anyone, Sometimes a man can tell that joke to a man friend he knows well, but if he tells it to strangers to perhaps a woman, it will NOT be appreciated every time.


myLot reputation of 86/100. reeyan (661)   ranked 222 out of 2,742 in jokes  1 month ago

Hi fjaril

It is said that don't joke with them who has not ability to take the taste of humor.

Many time it is seen that improper placement of joke ended in quarrel. But this is an another matter. My question is who can joke is the joker. Or joker have any other spcl quality. If who can joke is a joker. Then why humorous people not like that some one say them joker.


myLot reputation of 99/100. fjaril (4331)   ranked 10 out of 2,742 in jokes  1 month ago

I am thinking of it this way..
if I have a good sense of humour and I make you laugh, you can think I am funny but if you call me a joker, perhaps you offend me, because I am trying to say serious things about life, about me, about other things, but my way is to use humour so you are relaxed AND So I am relaxed because maybe I am uncomfortable otherswise to say just what I want to.

BUT if you say I am a joker, you are not taking me seriously. And THAT is what I need you to do.. to take what I say seriously,even if I make you laugh.


myLot reputation of 86/100. reeyan (661)   ranked 222 out of 2,742 in jokes  1 month ago

Hi fjaril

There are three types of lough making deed. Witty, humor and vulgar. Sense of humor is witty. Light talk is humor and dirty and meaningless effort to make lough is vulgar. I agree that serous type of lough making deeds too there are that is called serio-comic. But this can't cover the answer. No one what to be called joker but like to joke. Are you want to meant that?


myLot reputation of 99/100. fjaril (4331)   ranked 10 out of 2,742 in jokes  1 month ago

hmmm..I like to joke and I don't think I want to be called a joker. That means to me that I am silly or a jester and not to be taken seriously.

No I dont want that. You can say I am funny, but don't call me a joker. it has a different meaning, reeyan

A 'joker' is a person who enjoys telling or playing jokes .. NOT the same things as having a little fun. You reallly cannot say that one who is just joking with us is a JOKER. it is not the same thing.

Jokes are made up stories with a funny ending to make you laugh. Not all jokes are so funny and so clean or kind either, but that is what being a joker is.

If I just 'fun joke' with you it is just a word or something that we both laugh about.. not a story or not a trick.. see the difference?


myLot reputation of 86/100. reeyan (661)   ranked 222 out of 2,742 in jokes  1 month ago

Hi fjaril

I am unanimously agree with you that no and accept him to be called joker. And we should not say any one joker if he is no professionally indulged with it. other wise it may create a calamitous situation.

Any way so I really gad to here from you the details explanation on the matter. I think you informative response has some important value to the practical life.


myLot reputation of 97/100. vandana7 (1463)  1 month ago

Hi fjaril, and reeyan, this is something I've spent hours analyzing. Basically, I am a sensitive person. We all have some drawbacks we are not comfortable with. We expect others not to cut jokes on that. As I read somewhere, if the person apologizes after accidentally uttering something jocularly, with the words "sorry" then it was essentially a joke, and even sensitive people can brush it off. But if the person uses the words "I was just joking" - that can annoy! After all, it is not a matter for joking. That - is the difference. If an explanation is offered then the so called joke was meant to ridicule, if instead an apology is offered, it was truly a joke. So anybody who retaliates when ridiculed, is in right.


myLot reputation of 86/100. reeyan (661)   ranked 222 out of 2,742 in jokes  1 month ago

Hi Vandana

This is why it is said that don't joke with them who has not the sense of humor. And it is said that it is the best joke that some one joke about himself. If in any joke I make myself the center of the joke I think no one will be hurt.

And the commonly speaking line "I am joking is nothing but to lighten a matter that is placed wrongly." Who use this line is basically have said those line not in joke but when he see that he has said some thing not acceptable then he use this line in self protection.

But I too agree with you that it is not right to joke if there any doubt of acceptability.


myLot reputation of 99/100. fjaril (4331)   ranked 10 out of 2,742 in jokes  1 month ago

vandana! Yes.. I like exactly the wording you used.. So much better you have explained it than I could. Thankyou for clarifying it.. Very well put and I do so agree. For ME, you have ‘hit the nail right on the head’!!
THANKS SO MUCH!
Thanks, reeyan for this discussion.. Nice to meet you here too, vandana!

Thankyou reeyan. This was really a good discussion! It was fine to have been involved in it as well. Thankyou so very kindly for your honour of best response.
Be well my friend. see you soo, I hope!happy

Hi fjaril

Thanks

But you too feel that it was very tough to select the best one in this discussion. If you have viewed all the responses, then you too can guess how much trouble I have to bear in the selection. But reading all those I find the specific definition from your response so I think that this response have the quality to honor.


Thanks

Isn’t a joker a jester? Someone who has to act silly in order to entertain? There is two ways of reading the meaning of the word joker I guess nothing wrong with being called a joker if it refers to your great sense of humour and love of a good joke but to be called a joker in the sense that you may be the joke, that’s not so nice...


myLot reputation of 86/100. reeyan (661)   ranked 222 out of 2,742 in jokes  1 month ago

Hi paula27661

Yeas you go through the right concept about joker. Noble way to just entertain with some silly talk or deed is joking. But the innocence must needed there. Any insult or instigation if added then it changed its character. It's hard to keep oneself on the boundary of the decent approach. If ever it crossed it turned to vulgar.

So I think we should not say any one joker if he is not involved any professional joke making entertainment. Because use of the word to any person may occurs calamities.

I dont think that anybody who jokes is a joker.it simply means that we are making somebody happy and making them laugh by our humor.it simply don mean that one is joker.
joker are exactly those who works in a circus and they make others laugh for the earning.its their work.they have to do it,if they are themselves hurt or sad.


myLot reputation of 86/100. reeyan (661)   ranked 222 out of 2,742 in jokes  1 month ago

Hi bluray
Yes you are right that anybody can joke but everyone who joke is not a joker.

Look at the picture you uploaded. Such people are called joker. An idiot once asked me, "Do you play?"
I said "yes"
He said, "then you are a playboy"

Hi Reeyan.

Like so many words in the English language, and possibly in other languages as well, it all depends on the context in which the word is used.

If you tell me a good joke I would pay you a compliment by saying you are a good joker, but in another context it could be an affront.

We have a practical joker who is a prankster and not usually appreciated. Then we could think of the evil Joker in the Batman movies, or the Joker in a pack of cards.


myLot reputation of 86/100. reeyan (661)   ranked 222 out of 2,742 in jokes  1 month ago

Hi cloudwatcher


I am completely agree with your view. All the meanings are contextual. And to say some one a joker is I think little uncultured manner. No one can accept this word. People joke loving mentality is another matter but we should not say any one joker.

8. myLot reputation of 98/100. paintswithwords (256)   1 month ago

Hi reeyan, As has already been said it is the context in which we use the word joker that determines whether it is a compliment, a profession or an insult.

If I tell a joke or make a humorous comment that is to make one laugh without insult to anyone or joking about a circumstance that is not funny, then for that occurrence you could say I am a joker. But that would be speaking about that particular joke and not my character as a whole.

As was previously brought out, one who is a comic by occupation could be referred to as a joker without insult to his character.

However, the word joker is often referred to an individual who places humor on wrongful or hurtful things or does not take any thing in life serious.

So, as we can see by this discussion, there are many ways the term joker can be used, some mean no insult to ones character and others can refer to something lacking or inconsiderate in character.


myLot reputation of 86/100. reeyan (661)   ranked 222 out of 2,742 in jokes  1 month ago

Hi paintswithwords

Good point you raise that the proper implementation and situational viability is the called the common sense. We should use the common sense. Improper use of very valuable lines may lay negative impact. Your are right that many way the word joker can be used. But who is actually a joker is not explored in this discussion till now.
