Having fun is a great way to unburden yourself of the stress and problems we often encounter in life's routine.But, there are people who would do this in an extreme way. Doing silly things to themselves! But why? For what reason? Take a look at the photo. Would you dare?

I guess, some just wanna caught other's attention, that's why they were doing such things. Some might think doing such is cool when in fact, it wasn't at all.

Hi there, Vmt. Good morning to you and welcome to Mylot.;-) Well, maybe you are right. But this is a weird thing to catch attention. Such a lowly attitude to treat yourself like this. This is indeed a humiliation grabber! Thanks a lot for the very first person to respond.:-)

yes,more and more persons do some things that we couldn't accept,maybe they just use this way to attractive us~ Like Lady Gaga,some people like her crazy but others not~What’s actual is rational?I don't think so~ For me~I’ll never do that stupid thing to make people see me as a clown~ wish U happy~

But Gaga is an artist and a famous one for that matter. Plus, even if she make herself look silly she can still get away with it without mush ado. As a matter of fact, some kids are emulating her. It is fashion sense for them. But for ordinary people, it simply looks weird... Thank you, Jessica. Welcome to Mylot.:-)

Definitely, it is this person's main interest. To look different that would make others turn their heads whenever they see him. Some people take delight when they see that they are the center of an attention. Thank you for responding , Mspitot. Good morning.:-)

Hi eureka! You see everyone has his/her own way to unwind and make herself/himself laugh and stressed out. The things which you consider silly, may be fun activities for those people, who want to enjoy their life. If I want to de-stress myself, I would play the music and would do some silly dancing steps in front of mirror to make myself laugh, if anybody sees me at that time, s/he would think that I've gone crazy.........lol!

eurekafemme, People just have their own perceptions and prerogatives, so it is really up to each person how one would deem funny or unique is really individual. I just do not see anything wrong and back some time ago, I remember after a movie hit "The Last of The Mohicans" and I boarded a cab with a "Mohican" behind the wheel 1 a.m. in the morning.

Definitely no ME!! I find this kinda stuff utter stupidity and i believe there has been a severe damage to the grey matter of the brain cells of the person who so ever tries out these things(...as the one in the snap....i sense an acute deficiency of grey matter in his case....).. There are many more things to go about in order to side track the daily hectic routine of ur life like going on for long travels...busying one self in some interesting work like gardening or take up hobbies of any sort that one prefers...But Not such kinda crazy stuff....

people like him have no respect with themselves, in my opinion. why do they have to make fools of themselves like that? i won't be making fool out of myself like that and i won't even let my kids do the same.

I also think that they do this in order to get more attention and give a good laugh to their friends. It makes them kind of "cool". I am sure they're not doing this to entertain themselves. Just think: would that guy on the photo do this when nobody's around. Probably not, because no-one would notice that.

Compared with men, women more easily lapse depression, fear and anxiety.Even more serious psychological disorders that cause these conditions, the more often they manifest themselves.Prepjatou reaction of women to men psychologically burdensome situations are often called female sensitivity. They right that they are - statistically speaking coping with stress better.They forget that in modern society have lost their many natural stress factors,which is the evolution of preferences. Male brain but he has retained defense mechanisms.

maybe this person has his own way of showing his fashion state or there could be a chance that this is just a part of his job who knows. sometimes we just have to get out from our system and sometimes do silly things or even shout loud you know just to cool down for awhile but not to over react it. this is just my opinion. . =]
