Apropos of nothing

Why is it considered an insult to say somebody doesn't have a sense of humor? Everybody wants to think they do, but not everybody does. I mean, if you didn't know how to play the clarinet, and I said, "You know, you really can't play the clarinet," you wouldn't get mad, would you? It would just be self-evident. So big deal, you don't have a sense of humor. It doesn't make you a bad person. You probably have a lot of other good qualities.
