Q: Using yourself as the butt of your own joke is a sure way to get people cracking up. There's something about self-deprecating humor that triggers schadenfreude, the act of taking pleasure in someone else's pain, and this forms the foundation of many famous comedians' jokes. Figure out what's sadly hilarious about you and offer it up for laughs.   I'm really good in bed. I can sleep for like 10 straight hours without waking up once. — Jen Kirkman  The depressing thing about tennis is that no matter how much I play, I'll never be as good as a wall. I played a wall once. They're relentless. — Mitch Hedburg We've all seen comedians use their SOs as funny joke fodder. So many people can relate that you're bound to get a few hearty laughs. If you don't have a boyfriend or girlfriend, you can make fun of boyfriends and girlfriends in general.  Straight guys will never know how expensive it is to be a woman. And that's why you pay for dinner. — Livia Scott Hipsters, rednecks, politicians, lawyers, rich people, kids, elderly people, men, women . . . the list goes on and on. Jokes about groups of people get some of the hardest laughs of all, but be careful not to go to far - you might offend people.  Everyone knows hipsters are like human bedbugs. You see one, there are probably 40 more under your bed, judging your music. — Dan Soder At a bus stop, high school, sports dugout, airplane, office, coffee shop, bathroom, and so on are all excellent fodder for jokes. Figure out what's quirky, annoying or surprising about somewhere you've been or something you've seen.   I grew up near Newark, New Jersey. If New York City's the city that never sleeps, Newark, New Jersey is the city that watches you sleep. — Dan St. Germain  I will never understand why they cook on TV. I can't smell it, can't eat it, can't taste it. The end of the show they hold it up to the camera, 'Well, here it is. You can't have any. Thanks for watching. Goodbye.' — Jerry Seinfeld Talk about someone or something famous, like the president, a Hollywood celebrity, a sports figure, or someone else who's often in the news. Jokes about famous people are great, since most people will know what you're talking about and enjoy laughing at the expense of the rich and famous.   I wonder if Jeremy Irons ever quietly laughs to himself while he's ironing. — Jon Friedman   I've been wearing so many scarves lately that I wonder if my ancestors were part Steven Tyler mike stand. — Selena Coppock

Q: Nerves in your brain control your body’s clock, known as your circadian rhythm. This rhythm is established by following a predictable routine, which is why you are able to wake up at the same time on the weekend as you are during the week if all factors are equal. So the best way to adjust your sleep cycle is to be consistent and make it a routine.  Take care not to deprive yourself of sleep. There are many studies about the dangers of sleep deprivation so talk to your medical professional before attempting to change your sleep schedule for a long period of time.  More sleep isn't always healthier than less sleep. Scientists don’t know whether sleeping longer is a symptom of poor health or the cause of it. Consult your health professional to see if there is a deeper concern as to why you are staying in bed longer such as sleep apnea or depression. If you stay up later than normal because you don’t feel tired, don’t force yourself to sleep but rather let your body adjust naturally. Eventually, you'll be tired earlier and will be able to easily fall asleep at an earlier time. Your body will naturally regulate your sleep schedule. Don’t feel frustrated if you can’t fall asleep because you might develop insomnia from becoming anxious at the thought of not being able to fall asleep. Trust that your new cycle with set itself. Each of us have different capacities at which we can function with little to no sleep. Some of us can be fully alert with just 4 hours of sleep while others need more than 8.  Calculate how much time you will need to get enough sleep to perform the task you want and set your night’s schedule accordingly. For example, if you want to wake up to catch a meteor shower at 3am and know you are able to function with only 4 hours of sleep, get into bed around 10:30pm. If you're just waking up in the middle of the night for a specific one-time event, planning exactly when you should go to bed is smart. But if you're trying to adjust your sleep cycle for a longer period of time, let your new cycle come naturally, and don't try to force it.
