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
