Humor is the capacity of events to entertain and make other people laugh. The expression originates from Greek humoral medicine, which held that a person’s emotional and physical well-being were controlled by the humor of a balance of bodily fluids. People of all ages and cultures find humor to be appealing. The capacity to make most people smile, laugh, or feel pleased by something funny (such as a pun or joke) is known as having a sense of humor. The hypothetical person lacking a sense of humor would likely find the actions that lead to it puzzling, strange, or even absurd. Even while the final judge of something’s enjoyment value is one’s own, a person’s degree of amusement is impacted by a variety of circumstances, such as geography, culture,

intellect, context, education level, culture, and maturity. Young children may find slapstick, such as in Tom and Jerry cartoons or Punch and Judy puppet shows, appealing because of its physical characteristics. Conversely, more complex forms of humor, like satire, need an understanding of social context and meaning, making them appropriate for an older audience.
