My uncle has a very good sense of humor, he can make us laugh at anything, almost all the time, he has really good communication skills. Everyone likes him for that.

I really really want to develop a good sense of humor, because it's very helpful in many situations in life. Do you have any idea?

Like, reading comics books? reading comedy stories or what?

Firstly i'm not sure if you can develop a sense of humour but i'll just try and give some advice anyway ..
I think self belief is a major issue here. YOU need to think your funny, so you can understand that other people will too.
There are different ways to make people laugh at/with you though.
Don't go looking up jokes- thats a bad move.
I would suggest that -even though this isn't so good - sarcasm might be a good way to make people laugh with you?
Watchingg comedy movies etc will help you learn new techniques etc..your right there ...
If you start by cracking a few jokes here and there,or acting a bit silly people will see you as a funny person ...

well do you want to be the comedian or the listener?
for a good sense of humor, you have to be an open minded person. Closed minded people dont understand when people are joking or if they do, they get offended easily (still not understanding it's a JOKE and the comedian doesnt mean what they say). not to mention you have to be understanding and [Up to date]. sometimes jokes we use today wouldnt make sense 50 years ago because of our slang.

if you want to be a comedian... the best thing you can do is make witty comments. That takes practice :P
