Another way to think about it is when you do something all the time it becomes a second nature. You don't always have to ponder hard on every decision you make, some decision becomes default choice. I don't know about minimalists not having a sense of humor (actually first time I heard this) but I agree you are less likely to do things just for shitz and giggles; but I don't know if thats such a bad thing. Some people just don't enjoy doing things for shitz and giggles. I guess it boils down to personal taste and preference?
