>>23856208I did this for years before finally realizing it wasn't worth it. Cracking jokes or trying to be witty (especially those at the expense of others) is an escape mechanism we use because we're afraid to be sincere or express how we really feel.
Even after realizing this, it was hard to stop, because I had constructed a large part of my identity around being the "funny guy." You need to be strong enough to give that up. Best of luck, fellow robots.
