It gets harder and harder to laugh at anything on TV, movies, comedians... Maybe it's 'cause I'm getting old and I was brought up on an older brand of comedy to the young hooligans of today, but I just don't find comedy funny anymore. We have cable, we get the comedy channel. The only thing I'll laugh at is South Park. Everything else is like watching a man get a root canal. Except less funny than that
I'm guessing its because corproate types are trying their hardest to market comedy as they've done to music and failing, because all the technology in the world can't make someone funny. Unless you drop it on them from a great height. That would be funny

Don't often disagree with you, m'dear; and don't exactly think we do here, either - but I voted for "sensitive person" and I'll tell you why (from one who can't help but cry on the outside as well - how embarassing at times.. I used to wish I could have my tear ducts removed! :) ) ... But anyway, back on pointe -
In each choice, there is a "someone" who it's happening to, right? Now, nothing implies that they are not also laughling at themselves; or will in a few (minutes, days, weeks) because that's the way they're made...
Now, the "sensitive person" is obviously the only one on the list in actual pain atm - and it's sad to laugh at ANYONE in these situations who is in the middle of it and in pain....
Whether the person chooses to laugh, and when (time is a big factor in healing process) is time for any/everyone else to as well - else I feel it's cruel.
I should know, I make jokes all the time. I have had a "Chinese (one from column A, one from column B) Menu" of childhood abuse; which I laugh like hell at NOW, but that took a while. In fact, about 20 yrs & $100K worth of therapy (US$ of course!)...
At first (age 12=16) I was scared (that I'd never get out alive);
Then I was paranoid (after I moved out - Age 17-22)
then I was Angry! (muthafucka doing that shit to a kid! :mad: Age 23 - 32)
then I first tried to get help & perspective (ages 23 - 29);
then I got the expensive above mentioned "treatment" (ages 29 - 32)
then I got back to living; got married for awhile; divorced; went through a "phoenix phase" (thanx to ZGeek) -
Then moved to Aussie to get my head together;
And now I feel I've come full circle. (35) I just gotta wait for rewards for past good deeds to come my way.....
And comin' round the corner - yes they are; I am sure of it! :)

Thats great and all for you, but you are the first person who I have met(though not in person, so maybe you dont really exist and Im replying to my imaginary friend, and people here are going "who the hell is this whacko talking about, but maybe zgeek is also in my imagin......err I digress), who can actually laugh at her childhood abuse. Also, many of these poor bastards dont seek help, maybe because they cant trust anyone ever again or maybe because they dont have the money.....
All I can say is when I wrote that comment, in my mind I was thinking about some poor 6year old girl on a bed with some sick asshole laughing in the dark background. (My imagination is mighty powerfull), and once that thought was in my mind, I got really angry.
I want to become a cop or a fed and work in the internet crimes division in Australia, but I cant really see it happening because once I track down some sick fuck, I would not be able to arrest him, I would shoot him in the balls, then the legs, then the gut and then I would sit down happily and watch him die. And I dont think I would be able to stop myself from doing it.

Please don't think that way, sweetie; I've had lots of friends, family & others who feel the same way - but some good came out of it, perhaps....
I am a strong person, but a sensitive one; I stand up for my own & other ppl's rights; I'm not afraid of anything anymore - and worst of all - I seen it all...
But I made myself a promise, when I was 3 yrs old. (The year of my first "clinical panic attack" <-- dunno, maybe I was born this way or maybe it's like Michael Moore said - we were bred into FEAR in america...) Anyway, this promise was after a weird encounter where my mom threw my real dad out (quite aggressively I must say)...
And I remember sitting under a cupboard or something after it was all over & he was gone - just staring at the side of her face while she did her usual activity (sit at the table, drink coffee, smoke cigarettes) - when all the sudden, I said to her (not outloud but LOUD in my head) "I don't care what happens; I'm never gonna be like you. I'm never gonna give up being "nice" (as you gotta understand; the feedback I got from my rellies like her mom (my other grandmother who died when I was 22) were all so negative "Joycie (my mom) used to be generous like you, Lauralee - until she got "smart" etc.
So I also promised myself I would also NEVER forget what it felt like to be a kid - because as one - I thought grownups were needlessly clueless, let's say (as in - FFS, Mum - how could NOT have heard of it?);
And I promised myself I was gonna be ME, for better or worse. No political friendships (even on the lowest denominator - it sux to watch...) no compromising of my principles to ANYONE. Even if I have to get divorced at the "wrong time" and take the last chance of a lifetime and move across the world; all the while because you believe you deserve something better...
Rape isn't a crime of SEX; it's a crime of control - so it also does NOT have to affect your sexlife (it didn't mine - even w/o therapy) maybe because I fought so hard and won in the end....... Don't know, but - I know it can be forgotten; or joked about at GREAT LENGTH (it's one of the sources of amusement in my life now - see thread about cliche's!) because if you can't get rid of junk; I usually make it into something - I'm crafty like that! LOL! No, not foxtrot-like; I just do a lot of weird projects - everything from gardening to studying Buddhism, to making market trades, to making a well balanced dinner for my husband & my dog & cat; to knitting & beadword; and ALWAYS my magick...
So, thanx, baby - but I'm ok, really. And I wanna help others in my boat to be okay too... So, for that reason alone - I make myself "available" to ppl - plus I really *do* love ppl - it's cool to watch 'em........ :)

On reflection, they probably had a point :p

shouldnt laugh when someone challenges you with "do you think this is funny ?!"
leads to detention, getting fired, being denied sex.. depending on your current relationship with your teacher, boss, wife, etc.
