" Humor is almost always anger with its make-up on. "

In traditional days, humor was perceived as an insult and had a negative effect that made us look like bad people.

Today, humor serves to relieve stress and has become an alternative medium to say things that might otherwise come out as rude. It is a great way to communicate our ideas without having to offend anyone. Having a good sense of humor usually means that the person is taking things lightly which improves relationships with others. Although humor is used in a sarcastic way to conceal our anger so that the other person doesn't feel insulted, but it is a great way to express one's concern.

Humor works as an antidote for problems and also as a sweet knife to cut people with words.
