Good timing - Deepstash

Good timing

A pause plus your voice tone creates humour. There's no punchline necessary. Silence at the moment of maximum tension drives home the punchline.

While this is very difficult to master, one way to immediately punch up your humour is to leave extra silence in front of the punch line to create maximum tension and the highest mystery.
