      If you have to explain a joke, it’s probably not funny. I got it and it still wasn’t funny.

      That would be enough by itself, harsh but reasonable.

      Maybe you’re just not funny.

      Now that’s just mean and uncalled for.

          Actually the fist statement you made is a criticism on the joke.

          The second statement is a generalized assumption on OPs character traits.

          To assume someone just isn’t funny (in general) by reading one of their comments reveals a lot about how dense you are.
