Get the Sense of Humor mug.This phrase is often misused. It means: being able to perceive comical things.
However, it is often used to accuse others of a lack thereof when the person fails to laugh at someone else's expense. Or when the person fails to laugh WITH those who are laughing AT him.
Many if not most people say "sense of humor" when they mean "C'mon, let us have a little fun at your expense."

For example, Albert falls while trying a ballet pirouette. Just because his friends find it funny doesn't mean they should laugh. Why? Because real friends spare the feelings of their friends. However, it is OK to laugh if Albert gives them permission. How does he do this? By laughing at himself first.
"Albert, that fatty, fell while trying his ballet moves. We all started laughing. He didn't laugh because he has no sense of humor."

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.

Get the Sense of humor mug.Stephen King calls it anger with it's make up on, so when someone is always making unhilarious attempts at humor, it's because they are silly, not angry. It's because they are the worst kind of clown, one that isn't funny.
It's better not to have any sense of humor than to make unhilarious attempts at one to be part of a group so that you don't end up alone.
