People often think that humor is a sign of intelligence. Well, unfortunately for all of you funny guys and girls, the studies didn’t find humor to be an indicator of someone’s intelligence. They did, however, found that being funny does play a big part in being successful in the dating world. I may have mentioned the study on humor and attractiveness from the University of Kansas in some other dating articles, but it doesn’t hurt to repeat. Basically, the researchers put 51 pairs of students, who didn’t know each other, in a room and left them to talk for 10 minutes. Afterward, students filled a survey. The survey has shown that the more men tried to be funnier and cracked jokes and the women laughed at those jokes, the better chance was that the woman had romantic interests in a man. If they laughed together, they were more likely to be attracted to each other. Unfortunately for all of you ladies, when a woman tried to make jokes, the results were not the same.

Although he wasn’t the most attractive guy, he always somehow managed to score with a beautiful girl. We all had a friend like that at some point in our lives.
