Some people start making fun of everything that does not affect them.


Some people also make fun of everything that does affect them.

People are complicated. I have been to funerals where it is almost like a roast. Some people deal with heavy emotions through humor.

I do understand how if something doesn't affect you it can be very disrespectful to mock it. I am just pointing out that not everyone holds a reverence for even very serious situations.


Big difference between making light of the dark situation you are in, vs. the dark situation others are in and you aren't.


Other people just have dark scenes of humour, yet others deal with the world around them with humour.
