Sense of humor

The wrong people think that if you have one you're not serious, because they're not serious. They don't get what a sense of humor is, they think it is making fun of double standards and bullshit like that. A sense of humor is like common sense, it's dangerous not to have one.
The bubbly girl thought that because what she said and did was unhilarious and showed a poor sense of humor she would never admit to having, because she thought she was the funniest person in the world (because she was a narcissist) , that everybody else was like her, just as silly as her. If they said or did something that other people thought was funny or got, even if she didn't, to her it meant that the other person wasn't serious, because she wasn't serious, (she didn't hold anything sacred enough to be serious about it) so nobody else was either.
