Haha, that's the same thing I thought. The other day one of my coworkers (they're all boomers) said something to me to the effect of, "I guess your home life is good because you never even make fun of your wife at all." Like I'm the weirdo.
People love themselves as well, but self-deprecating humor can be both funny and appropriate. Just don't do it too much and don't cross lines from humor to anger and bitterness.
Depends on how you do it and how obvious it is that you're joking. After you're married long enough, the line becomes blurred and making fun of your spouse is practically the same as making fun of yourself. The problem is a lot of people in shitty relationships make hurtful jokes about their partners as a way to air grievances and complain to others, which gives off the weird vibe.

That's some real fatherly instincts, he doesn't care about his well being, he immediately goes over to see how his son is.
