The basics of telling jokes are timing, anticipation and the element of surprise. The importance of timing is crucial and is what can make or break your joke. Even if you?re telling the world?s most hilarious joke, you fail to say the right words at the right moment ? you fail to make anyone laugh. Many often say too many unnecessary words, others miss to mention key details. Without proper timing, jokes will not make sense and will be referred to as silly jokes.

Another important basic of laughing jokes is building anticipation. If you ask a professional comedian, they will tell you that anticipation is the key to a laughing response.
