happy Autism awareness month, I was just wondering if anybody else experience not having much of a sense of humor for example I don't find a lot jokes funny for instance on April fool's Day a woman came to me and said there's no drinking on the job but she was trying to be funny and I didn't get it. I do find some things funny for example on Netflix stand-up comedian special I find Kevin Hart, traveling Noah and Snoop Dogg to be very funny and also Nick Cannon. just was wondering if anybody had any tips or similar experience.

I hate April Fool's day jokes, and pranks in general. They don't seem funny to me, they just feel like lies.

I have days where I find nothing funny, people will joke to me, and I'll take it literally.. I think it's just the ASD.. the brain isn't wired the same as non- neurodivergent peeps. Can be exhausting sometimes

I don't get jokes really
I need to understand the subject in order for me to like them.
I struggle with jokes unless they're related to my areas of interest, then I can tell it's a joke
@kenzislost that's interesting to know
@dragonknight I also like to be funny and I often say things that other people find funny, but I don't really tell jokes either :)
