Tips To Prevent Yourself From Being Embarrassed By Mean Jokes
Most of us have been in a situation where we ended up being the focus of someone's joke. When this happens, are you uncomfortable or hurt? Do you run away and never show your face again? Of course not! There are better ways of handling an embarrassing situation and here are some of them:
Ignore the joke. Bullies are notorious for picking on people they think they can push around. These people are usually insecure and short on attention. To get it, they make fun of other people. The trick is to ignore these idiots. By not giving them the attention they crave, they start losing interest in you and move on to the next victim.
Joke back in style. If you're a really witty person, you can deflect their nastiness with a joke of your own. Everyone likes hearing a battle of wits and seeing the underdog win.
Just make sure your comeback is witty and delivered in style. This has two purposes. The first is to defend yourself. The second is to intimidate your attacker. If everyone laughs when you make your comeback, the bully will think twice about delivering another blow as he or she might come up short and become the butt of the joke.
Accept it. So what if they make you the butt of their joke? Who the hell cares? You are the king! You are royalty while they are the court jesters. Yes, you're too confident to even regard anything they say as important. By accepting it with disdain, you automatically invalidate whatever they say.
Look behind the joke. Perhaps there is a reason your attacker is making fun of you. You hurt their feelings in the past. Is it possible? Were you their bully a few weeks ago? Months? Years? Try to recall it and you might be surprised by the memories you recall, If you did hurt them in anyway, it's best to resolve it by talking in private. Let bygones be bygones and move on.
Everyone, one way or another, will eventually end up in a situation where they have to defend themselves from someone's crassness. When this happens, hopefully you'll follow one of these suggestions and be able to handle the situation like a pro.
