The strong man was walking toward them and didn’t do anything else, but because this person had so much concern about this, he thought he would get hurt.
What are the hidden messages in people’s jokes?

In that case, you should know that it was consistent with the basic beliefs of that person, and that is why his memory keeps remembering it(Memory is selective, that is, it remembers things that are compatible with beliefs and makes the beliefs stronger). For example, one of your friends may say, while passing by an expensive car on the street: Wow! I forgot the car key! Maybe this sentence seems like a joke, but in reality, it expresses this person’s concern, desire, and vital need for money, status, and luxuries.
- Some people in jokes try to target and show off their enemies to feel better. Therefore, you can identify their enemies and understand their intellectual level.
- Also, people sometimes try to strengthen their beliefs by using jokes. For example :
“There is an instructive proverb: It is easier to die for a woman you love than to live with her!”
