Yes, some guys possess both qualities, but if you had to pick, would you rather your bf/husband be talented or humorous? A guy who can bring the best from the worst, or a talented guy who is skillful in many great things. You must choose 1 or the other. For me, I would go for the funny guy, because while talent is attractive, I'd hate it if he had no sense of humor. I can deal with a funny untalented guy, but definitely not a talented boring guy. In a relationship, I'd rather my boyfriend be able to make me smile than be able to dance or sing or perform open heart surgery. What are your opinions?
"Hey, honey, why did the chicken cross the road?" "who the fuck cares, im going to go fix the washing machine now." humor>talent
^ Bad example, I never understand what's so funny about that chicken joke or that lightbulb joke... I guess talent>humor for me as most humor will be wasted on me @_@b
"How many ______ (fill in noun of choice) does it take to change a lightbulb?" Quite similar to the Chicken joke, if you ask me... Both equally silly =_=b
Aha talented doesn't necessarily mean boring. A guy could be so talented at music, he sings to me and plays de guitar makin me smile; he could b talented at performin magic tricks which amuse me; he could be talented at storytelling which keeps me intrigued; he could be talented at writing poems which touch my heart; he could be talented at martial arts giving me a sense of security; he could be talented at drawing and painting and anything else.. the list goes on. On the other hand, a guy who cracks jokes all the time... well, sooner or later I am gonna find him boring if he can't do anything else. Sooner or later I'll find him uninteresting because he's a jack of all trades and master of none >.< So there, I'll go for "a talented guy who is skillful in many great things" anytime.
hard decision. i suppose talented, like what babyrain said. and to fearless: guys really do have sex running through their minds like every 2 seconds eh?
man, being funny has so many good effects, as long as the guy knows how to balance it with seriousness. You can diffuse so many situations with humor and its the best way to keep a relationship upbeat and moving forward. Talents are good if you want a dog, not a person. Humor is an integral component of good character and good character is essential for everything in daily life.
^Actually i wanted to put that in as well.. "talented in bed" but knowin what i'll be in for putting it in, i refrained from doing so.. and within five minutes, someone suggested it
Yeah, their train of thought cannot be maintained without disturbance (of sex) for any periods of time...
Talented. I don't need funny people to cheer me up. What's the point of telling a joke when I'm crying? O_O! A talented guy is definitely more attractive. ^^
Lol that's so not true. Talent is a GIFT! How hard is it to crack a joke compared to doing sth amazing most people can't do?
Yeah, talent over funny any day... It's not like funny really take me anywhere... Probably will be wasted on me.
Wait, but isn't the ability to make people laugh a talent in itself? -unsure I consider comedians talented in what they do. I want a guy that's talented in being funny. How's that?
^ Yeah, but then for this question, I would put "talented" separately from "funny", so unless you have some other talents as well, you are a funny guy (but not a talented one ) No offense, just a clarification. Of course people can be talented in being funny, just that it's not what this question is asking... I guess -unsure
^Yeah that's sort of like 'manipulating' the question and twisting ur answer lol. Coz obviously the OP wants to know the choice between talent and funny. Having said that, i still think a talented guy who is skillful in many great things (in the words of the OP) is far more interesting than someone who can bring out the best from the worst. Leave funny to me. I can be funny, try to be funny, learn to be funny Talents however, are not something i can learn.
