It is unmatched, I think.

My friend can take humor to a high level, dramatic but succint. Comic timing unrehearsed but purrfect.

Just wondering why the Leo humor is so effective?

I think it's appreciating life with a pure heart - through the eyes of a child.

My gal friend was asking me a few days ago: "What happened to your cat? Ohhh she was knocked down!!!"

I found it very very funny, altho' the topic of pets being killed was not. It was just the way she said it, permfect comic timing, together with an innocence at life's tragedies.

She also said very few people can appreciate her brand of humor, but I SO do. She lights up my boring life just with her quirky observations, quirps and humorous anaecdotes.

Oh what do I do without her?

For the record, she has a Leo sun/ Taurus Moon/ Cancer Venus.
I think she's the best specimen of Leo out there 🙂

I agree. The lioness that I'm very close with has wit that matches my own. Her type of humor is innocent but very intelligent and not a lot of our friends get where she's coming from when she shoots a quip. I personally think it's hilarious. I crack up laughing even when she's not around. Ahhh, she's one of a kind

Loe is lovable, and they never mean to offend anyone... stuff just comes out of our mouth without thought of consequence. However, if someone not so light hearted came out with a sarcastic or saddistic take on a particular situation it would probably sound really mean and be highly offensive. I also think the fact that we laugh at our own jokes tends to soften the blow a little. I hope this has answered your question as to why Leo females are so awesome! xo

My friends think I am funny but its not because I try to be it just happens. I also have a very dark humor that you have to catch. It doesn't help that Margret Cho is like my favorite comedian also Ellen in on the list at number two

Yes it does. And I know that as well.

My Taurus guy appreciates my humor because it is mostly cynical. I just can't help see the dark side of things.On the other hand, I am mostly a sunny personality although seeing that in print makes me cringe. lol. My Leo cousin called me optimistic the other day and I was insulted. I live in the real world. I am realist. Can I help it if it is so messed up that it's laughable?

You, my dear, sound exactly like my Leo friend. I love her loads, cynicism and everything. She wouldn't hurt a fly, though.

I've found that most of my jokes go right over peoples' heads, which kind of sucks sometimes.

My Leo friend said the exact same thing. Very few people catch her brand of humor. I think the Leo is not meant to follow the crowd. Their self expression is very unique.

I like when Leos throw their little tantrums. They get so angry, then they're right back to normal 5 minutes later. It's hilarious.

My Leo friend doesnt throw tantrums around me. If she does, it's in a mock theatrical way for comedic purposes.

Im not sure I can say they are remarkably funny (at least to me..) I have two leo sisters and I dont really know them for being too funny, yes they can be be funny at times like everyone else, in fact it is my aries brother and moi who keep them in stitches whenever we are all together.

Shaks, I have wrapped up two wriggling sacks for you. They're tied up with pretty ribbons. Inside would be something you might like for Christmas.

I can totally agree with this! I think both genders are hilarious. One of the Leo guys that I used to work with, use to keep the whole office in stitches continuously. It was insane. One of my best girl friends and my boyfriend are Leos, and I laugh constantly with them. I love it.
