like I just read a Q, about a dog with wheels at the back, some found it funny, while others were more circumspect.
I once was playing cricket with my son when he was small, I was bowling, he was batting. He didn't see me grab the extra tennis ball in my pocket. I did my usual short run up, but suddenly released 2 balls. Well he went kinda ballistic, as anyone would, expecting only one ball. I was kind of ashamed, but i couldn't resist.
why was that?

Mel Brooks said it best. "When it happens to you, it's funny; when it happens to me, it's a tragedy."
We can laugh at another person's "pain" because it didn;t happen to us.
Humor comes from the uncertain and the surprise. Most people would be ROFL with the two-balls joke. He doesn;t think it's funny, because no one wants to be the butt of the joke

dukalink, Said It In A Nut Shell. It's Much Harder To Laugh At Self Than To Do So At Another. As For Those "comics" Who Laugh At Their Own jokes, Go Figure?

You're a prick. We all are. It's human nature.
It's something we all fight in our efforts to be civilized.
