Failing to Appreciate the Possibilities


Self-deprecating humor: It is:
A) funny! It shows you don't take yourself too seriously.
B) alright, but don't go nuts with it. Make fun of other stuff too.
C) unhealthy and unfunny. Self-centered jokes exclude the rest of the world.
D) indicative of low self-esteem. Quit making fun of yourself, you loser.

Excuse me while I go dig up the latest research on the science of humor. I'm going to google it.

UPDATE: Wikipedia tells me it's all good so long as everyone knows it's a joke. And Wikipedia is an infallible source for guidance of all kinds.
