I know I have a sense of humor, albeit a bit corny. I understated puns and corny jokes the easiest. Sarcasm is a bit hard for me to understand when other people use it, but I've gotten better over the years at using it myself

Hang on, Robin Williams had Asperger's? And Keanu Reeves? And Dan "Ray Stantz" Aykroyd?

I knew Dan Akroyd did, but I was unaware of the others.

It depends on the person. We all have different senses of humor. Mine is a pretty odd one, but probably not odd enough.

I definitely have no sense of humor. Why would anyone think that?

Contrary to popular belief, yes, I do have a sense of humour
I have a silly, childish slapstick Mr Bean, Monty Python, Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy sense of humour. I don't always understand other people's jokes though, and they don't always get mine.

Oh, I don't watch commercials, and that's not a brand that is available in the country where I live anyway. No way I could have known that.

I have found humor to be one of the slickest, quickest, most disarming "down and dirty"(You're weapons are useless against me), social lubricants, it is an important "weapon" in the "arsenal" that is my mask...
