I'm the person who trails off, getting quieter and and more timid until whispering the punchline and apologizing for not being funny

Best explanation of comedy I've heard is it's about finding connections and revealing hidden truths between two seemingly unrelated subjects. What makes you laugh is when the comedian reveals the connection and you realize "goddamit, that's so TRUE!"

I feel “My wife.” Would also be a pretty good answer to “What’s the most complex thing you do in your kitchen.” As well.

“What’s the most complicated thing you do in your kitchen.” “...Try to pronounce ‘Worcestershire’.”

Thank you, it's actually really rewarding to see/hear well-crafted jokes rather than disguised verbal abuse
