People love humor because it makes them feel good. When something funny happens, like a joke or a silly situation, people laugh and feel happy. It's like when you see someone fall into a puddle, it’s unexpected and surprising, which makes it funny. Humor helps us relax and have fun with others.
Examples
- A kid slips on a banana peel and falls into a puddle, everyone laughs because it’s unexpected.
- Your friend tells you, 'I ate the whole cake,' and then says, 'And I still felt hungry.'
- You see someone wearing a hat made of socks, and it's so silly that you can't help but laugh.
