Humour

For me, an essential thing in a friendship is a shared sense of humour, or at least an understanding and appreciation of each other's humour.

I find it very difficult (read: impossible) to be friends with someone who:

• Is too serious and flashes me weird or condescending looks for laughing at something they don't find funny.
• Laughs at everything, like nothing is sacred.
• Thinks I'm being funny and laughs at me when I'm being serious.
• Has a crude sense of humour (racist, sexist etc.).
• Has a sarcastic sense of humour.

A true friend is one who I can laugh with so hard, no sound comes out.

A fellow weirdo is what I need.
