You say you are open to being incorrect amd learning from it.
Its actually quite good for your mental well being to have a reasonable amount of pride.
Confidence allows one to more truly know and understand themself, to be less burdened by useless criticism, to do things that you enjoy because you enjoy them.
Confidence also makes one more resistant to being bullied, makes one less likely to be dissuaded and distracted from your personal goals.
And in my case, my confidence, and my boasting, and my enjoyment from belittling those with minor problems while I deal with far more serious problems is entirely, rationally, and empirically justified.
There’s a difference between being an asshole for no reason, entirely for the sake of being cruel, and making a joke (in this case of someone who is bad at telling jokes) that is funny /because it is objectively accurate and illustrates the inherent absurdity of society./
Actually a lot of comedy is objectively bad, unoriginal, stolen content, simply cruel for the sake of cruelty in a way that is only funny to brutish thugs, or in this case, just lazy structure with no set up, no narrative, no sense of suprise, and whats worse is, as i pointed out, you could use better comparisons and at least not be absurd in a stupid way.
Thing 1 is addictive.
People told me its really addictive.
Its more addictive than thing 2.
This makes me like think thing 2 is not so bad.
This is not even a joke. Theres no word play, theres no setup, theres no investment built by anything previous, theres nothing shocking, I could go on.
Its actually really, really hard to pull off an actually funny joke in as few of words as this guy tried to.
I guarantee you he is yet another terrible modern comedian who basically just does the Family Guy recipe of throwing a whole bunch of random, not very funny and not really interrelated jokes together and just says them quickly in a manner that works only in a crowd where theres massive social pressure to laugh.
If you want to understand comedy try actually listening to or watching the routines of the greatest and most famous comedians.
Then try watching sitcoms with the laugh tracks removed.
Another good exercise is dissect a joke or satire and explain /why/ its funny, who would this be funny to, why would that be the case.
The subject of what is humor, what is funny is astoundingly complex and historied and I absolutely do not have the time to explain it thoroughly.
Anyway, I absolutely can belittle others who laugh at really really terrible and stupid jokes. One of the best ways to get to know someone is to understand their sense of humor.
And I guarantee you that any one who finds the joke I originally criticized funny is not creative, not very knowledgeable or inquisitive about the world around them, and probably also are very boring people.
That’s not better.
Uh huh. Ok then.

Sounds like someone actually got under your skin, which is ironic given this entire rambling comment is about how thick skinned you are.
Never actually said I was thick skinned, just said Nicotine is harder to quit than cocaine or sugar, and that this is a stupid joke.
But we already have established comprehending spoken or written words is fairly difficult for you, so this isnt suprising.
It is /funny/ though.
You can be proud without belittling others especially over taste in comedy which is decidedly not objective.
