I have found that learning to laugh at myself is the first step of being able to laugh at others. Just like learning to love myself before being able to love others.
There is no "sure thing" to help with your sense of humor, i.e. books, movies. You know your own style of learning more than anyone else, use it to your advantage.
I have been told by many people that I have a great sense of humor and should be on Last Comic Standing. Do I occasionally offend? Yes, but I learn from my mistakes and move on not dwelling on the mistake, but how to improve.
Be patient, be attentive, look at things from "outside of the box," and eventually (hopefully), it will come naturally. Don't try too hard and remember, no one rides the bull for 8 seconds on their first time out the gate.
