hi mylotters!!i wonder why there are some people who loves to make fun of someone infront of other people..for me making fun of someone close to you is okay as long as this are not too offensive but i think its not proper to make fun of someone you dont really know personally specially when you make fun of him/her infront of many people.

[i]Hi jen,
I agree with you. I have tried to make fun to someone very close to me in front of our good friends but no one has ever done this to anyone of us when we are with other people, that is very offensive and rude![/i]

It is improper to make fun of someone and it is not a good character to which is just the same as insulting someone in public or other else. I don't like to see people making fun of disabled person.
It is not their fault that made them that. Mostly, these people are immature and acting like kids when they are making fun of someone. it does not make them a better person at all too.
I feel pity for those people who are so proud of themselves and show off that they ridicule other people or pick on them just to boast their ego or so.

I really don't think that is a nice thing to do. I have to tell the kids in school all the time it is not nice to make fun of everybody. I make them apoligize to the person that they are make fun of. Not a good thing! Have a good day!

It's never proper to make fun of people at their own expense. I don't like people who do - I think they have issues so they're trying to get all the "positive" attention (of being the funny guy) on him and making someone else the butt of all the jokes (the actual position he fears to be in).
Thanks for the response on my discussion!

Hello jenisky! I don't understand too why other people would want to make fun to other people. I mean, people who are rich and popular and made fun of those students who aren't rich and are struggling just to finish their studies. Mostly, those are the scenarios in school.
I agree with you that it's not right to make fun of someone you don't really know..

Hi good day to you, My my co-mylot member. Well this is my response to your discussion entitled "Making Fun of Someone". Well me as my experience, i already tried making fun of someone, especially to my friends. Well like example of someone that i make fun is when there is a birth day of my classmate we never greet the celebrant. But when the time came that we will go home, we all get together and greet the celebrant loud the celebrant. Hehe. . . LOL. . . In my experience, i really happy when the time comes that i remember tht funny things. By the way most of Pilipino people having their own memories in their childhood life like, what i have told to you. I know other people here in our country all also happy remembering their childhood life which you make fun of someone. Well that's all my response to your forum topic discussion entitled " Making Fun of Someone. Happy Mylotting. Happy posting to you my co-mylotters and last happy earning. Good day again and good luck to our earning career here in this site. By the way will it be fine if i will add you to be my friend? Thanks!

i think that some people are very insicure and it make them feel better to make someone else feel small, i think it is a power and controle thing and if they are poking fun at someone else it is not them being made fun of and others are just mean and get off on makeing other people feel bad

I hate people making of fun of someone especially if they are not close and the latter got offended. In making fun of others we must take into consideration the level of closeness we have and the mood of the person we want to make fun with. For me I only make fun of my husband but only at home when we are alone. I never do that in public because I think some may think negative about it and besides I don't want to embarass him too. I never want the same thing to happen to me and so I do not make fun of any other people. So again my friends always remember to think twice or thrice before doing anything to others.
