#3 Self deprecation. This isn’t one of the best types of humor to use, but it does work. This is the kind of humor where you put yourself down in front of someone else in a funny way, especially when you’ve done something wrong. Think Hugh Grant in all his funny chick flicks and you’ll know what I mean.
But a word of caution here, use self deprecating humor only around people you’re close to, or others may think you’re a weak character who has low self esteem and can be pushed around. After all, you can’t constantly push yourself down and expect others to think you’re a class act.
