I do agree that you do not have to be funny or glib, but you can say things that will stop behavior or get the point across. This is really something that comes down to your experience and personal delivery. I know I can say things that others cannot and say things to one group of people I cannot say to another.

I'm actually pretty funny in my non-ref life, but the one time I tried humor it went horribly wrong. That's it, no more! I'm pleasant and hopefully approachable, but my humor skills are kept in my bag.
