I want to be a fun and funnier person but am verrrry socially awkward. Is this even possible? Like within my lifetime? What can I do?

I know I can swing normal. If I have enough normal ordinary conversations with people, I could lose the awkwardness. But I don’t wanna just be normal. I want to be a fun person to be around, and I want to be funny and say things that make people laugh. Normal is a way easier goal. Fun and funny, well, it might as well be rocket science.

I’ve heard people say that funny people come from funny families. My family was as funny as a hacked up dead body. Other people say being funny comes from trauma. While my life is definitely not short on trauma, unfortunately it was never the kind any humor could be found in. And then the worst I hear is that people are either funny or they’re not; quick witted or not. What do you think, good people? Is normal the most I can aim for, or could I become someone people wanna hang out with because I’m fun and make everyone laugh? I’m not talking stand up or anything like that. Just socially funny.
