    Stick with a classic joke to stay zany or write and deliver a knock-knock routine of your own. Because knock-knock jokes are so well-known, make your punchline unexpected. The more surprised they are, the more your friend will be amused. Try: [2]
    • “Knock knock.” “Who’s there?” “Tank.” “Tank who?” “You’re welcome.”
    • “Knock knock.” “Who’s there?” “Interrupting cow.” “Interrupting cow wh–” “MOO!”
    • “Knock knock.” “Who’s there?” “Dejav.” “Dejav who?” “Knock knock.”
    • “Knock knock.” “Who’s there?” “Control freak.” “Con–” “Okay, now you say ‘control freak who?’”
    • “Knock knock.” “Who’s there?” “Me.” “Me who?” “Having an identity crisis, are you?”
    • “Knock knock.” “Who’s there?” “Who.” “Who who?” “I didn’t know you were an owl!”
    • “Knock knock.” “Who’s there?” “To.” “To who?” “It’s ‘to whom.’”
    • “Knock knock.” “Who's there?” “Mike Snifferpippets.” “Mike Snifferpippets who?” “Oh come on, how many Mike Snifferpippets do you know?”

    Find the humor in one of your many common interests. You could joke about going back to school together, a classmate that annoys you both, or your parents. Try: [3]

    Comedy comes from inconsistency. By establishing a pattern of 2 normal situations, you set your friend’s expectations for something ordinary and serious. That makes it all the more absurd and hilarious when you break this pattern. You can use anything for a rule of 3, like: [4]
    • ”Are you trying too hard to get people to like you? By having a lot of money, an attractive appearance, or wearing deodorant?”
    • ”If you want to be seen: stand up! If you want to be heard: speak up! If you want to be appreciated: shut up!”
    • “I went on a blind date with this guy last week. He’s loud. He’s rude. I’m in love.”
    • “Can I get you anything? Coffee? Tea? Arsenic?”
    • “Success is 1% inspiration, 98% perspiration, and 2% attention to detail.”

    Use irony to create a punchline or make a brief observation about something silly. One-liners work especially well if your friend isn’t super into your long-form jokes: [5]
    • “I’d kill for a Nobel Peace Prize.”
    • “I own the world’s worst thesaurus. Not only is it awful, it’s awful.”
    • “What’s the difference between a good joke and a bad joke timing.”
    • “If we shouldn’t eat at night, why did they put a light in the fridge?”
    • “The easiest time to add insult to injury is when you’re signing someone’s cast.”
    • “Moles ask an interesting question: ‘what if a freckle had an ugly cousin?”
    • “I never knew what happiness was until I got married. And then it was too late.”
    • “I’m against protesting, but I don’t know how to show it.”
    • “I’d kill for a Nobel Peace Prize.”
    • “My brother got burned when he went to Burning Man. The irony stung, but not as much as the burning.”

    Make fun of a silly habit you have, something you’re wearing, or something embarrassing that happened to you recently. Your friend will appreciate that you don’t take life too seriously and laugh because they probably have similar quirks. You could say: [6]
    • “I’m in shape. Round is a shape, right?”
    • “This shirt is so colorful, you can probably see it from space.”
    • “I got so distracted by my phone the other day that I walked right into a pole!”
    • “I got my IQ test results. They were negative.”
    • “I question my sanity a lot. Every now and then, it answers.”
    • “Not to brag, but I haven’t had a breakdown in, like, 7 minutes.”
    • “My clear conscience is just a sign of bad memory.”
    • “Together I can heal my dissociative identity.”
    • “Yesterday, I got job offers by not 1, not 2, but 0 companies.”
    • “I used to be a terrible person. I still am, but I used to be too.”

    If your friend has a good sense of humor, they’ll appreciate your sense of playful mischief. Perform pranks that are funny for both of you, and don’t go out of your way to cause damage. [7]
    • Make your friend a silly meal when they say they’re hungry, like green eggs and ham or a sandwich cut out in the shape of an animal.
    • Place confetti on the blades of a ceiling fan so they fall into the air when the fan is turned on.
    • Hide bubble wrap under a rug so your friend is surprised by the popping noises.
    • Adjust their clock forward, so they think they’re late for something when they’re early.

    Try making fun of them for a word they say a lot or a guilty pleasure TV show. Just steer clear of topics that they’re sensitive about, and don’t go overboard with your comments. If your friend gets offended, quickly apologize and find another way to make them laugh. [8]
    • Use a friendly delivery and a kind smile when teasing so your body language conveys that your jokes are meant to be good-natured and playful.
    • Be aware of power dynamics when teasing. Only tease in situations where you’re physically and socially equal. For example, if your friend is a co-worker in a lower-ranking position, teasing them at work can feel like an abuse of authority.
    • If you’re teasing in a group setting, spread your teasing around so your friend doesn’t feel ganged up on.

    Talk about something that happened to you in person, a news story you read about, or something funny from your childhood. If it makes you laugh, it will probably make your friend laugh, too. [9]
    • Maybe you saw a bird poop on someone’s head, a dog wearing a funny sweater, or maybe you have a memory of your dad starting the blender without the lid on and making a huge mess.
    • When telling a funny story , try to keep the set-up under 30 seconds and end on your funniest punchline.

    Start by watching clips and trailers of their material to see if you like their jokes. Then, look for their popular specials to binge with your friend. Josie Long, Mindy Kaling, Hannibal Buress, and Trevor Noah are all good comedians to choose from. Who knows? Maybe they’ll inspire you and your friend to try doing some stand-up comedy of your own! [11]
    • You could also head to a comedy club to see comedians in-person.
