It shows that you are clever,
smart fun and down to earth in ways that
a direct claim will not work. It also makes
you seem more approachable. Don't use
humor at others expense. Don't use off
color humor. Don't use too much self
deprecating humor. This can be
misinterpreted as a lack of self
confidence. Don't worry about making
everyone laugh because you will always
confuse and even turn off some. The
people that get a kick out of your specific
brand of humor will most likely be fun to
be around
