I thought AM6 was supposed to enhance sense of humor, as per the product page. Or am I understanding something incorrectly?
A big source of humour is characterisation. The direction he's heading in is towards "laconic humour". It's origin is from Sparta. This fits well with his overall development into the truly strong silent type which is what AM6 seems to be transforming him into.
I can imagine if he cracked a joke and no one expected it, it'd be unexpectedly funny. Sometimes with humour, less is more.
Ahhh I see. So being funny yet in a subtle way is more along the lines of alpha behavior.
You got it. I’ve read before that beta males tend to smile and joke excessively in order to establish the fact that they’re not a threat to women and other men. “Nice guys” which is BS because guys like that are typically looking for something, and so their kindness is all in the interest of the attainment of their desires or self preservation.
On the other hand, Alphas will smile only when they want, and make a joke that they themselves genuinely enjoy without caring who else laughs. Example, we had a meeting at work yesterday. Although plenty jokes were made I didn’t smirk even once. A couple hours later, I made a joke and no one but me laughed, I couldn’t have cared less because the joke was meant my entertainment only in the first place. I was unattached to the outcome of having anyone join in for a laugh. Although I do like making others laugh, I stay primarily concerned with entertaining myself first and foremost.
