Taking it from that movie the dark knight and that wallpaper I like on my desktop with the joker I mean how is it some people in life take too much things so serious? Sometimes people should relax, enjoy life and have a good time don't you think? I see too much times people have a sad face or just stressed out like at my job I do a little bit of networking, troubleshooting and computer work. I don't think people should let their work get into their head so much right? I just say people should get out their house, take a cruise while riding or go to the beach. I hate being serious all the time.

having fun is really great. Like youre living your life to the fullest. No worries. Just relax and enjoy. Its like sometimes you are floating in the air..you know what i mean. NO problems.. But reality check, everyone need to have a job. Need to be more serious in life for them to live as normal as can be. Maybe we dont want us to see in streets, sleeping with those dirty clothes on. No permanently house. No money to eat clean food and everyone see you as beggar. Thats a nightmare..hahaha! Just be responsible enough. I know some jobs really frustrating and stressful. But if you can handle it very well. Then its gonna be always in track. Everythings will be just fine..^_^

Yeah man I can agree with you on that. Boy it sure does suck though how much people have lost their jobs in months time. Then figure what is the outcome in the end which Obama might do or not do. Cool man thanks for sharing.

I like that movie too and I have to say Heath Ledger played a good role as a Joker. That I can understand where you're coming from where you say why people take life so seriously. The thing is though that people in this life go through under stress for many reasons. Remember, the economy is not doing so well and the fact is it's even a bigger issue seeing gas prices increasing again. Sometimes it's hard enough trying not to stress out depending on a person's situation.

Iv been trying to figure out the same thing I'm the kind of person who dosent like drama and is usually always smiling even if I might be in a bad mood, becuse when you smile it makes people around you feel like smiling too and it up lifts the room, and becuse I feel like we dont always have to let everyone around us know that we are in a bad mood why should we make others feel uncomfortable becuse we are feeling bad especially if a persons at work I think that our personal problem's should be left at the door when we are at work.

I watched the movie and I didn't understand the hype surround Heath Ledgers performance. I actually thought it was a poor film. To answer your question, though, about people being serious all the time. I don't know, I guess because it's a stressful time and because grown up life is not time for playing around. We do need to take a step back and look at life. Why not? We only live life once.

The movie was insane! Only a few people like yourselves didn't like it but oh well I'll respect that everyone has their taste of movies. Thanks for your response though.

Ah... I love the Joker! People should try to relax and take it easy. Worry does cause stress and that can lead to many health problems. It also, sometimes, won't make something better. Action can only do that and sometimes it is just best to take a deep, long breath and just calm down before you even do that!

Good point but with people coming from all different walks of life, they all have different issues on their minds and also the worries that come with it. I'm sure most people at some point have a light heart smile either by themselves or with their network of friends. And I'm sure they just at that point of time did not choose to show it, I'm a jolly person and laugh and smile at most things as much as it would be nice if all were like that but I guess that's life and we are all very much different.

The Dark Night is a awesome movie, I love your avatar!You are absolutely right! Some people are so mellow dramatic and so serious about life sometimes, it's annoying! I think a lot of people have forgotten how to have fun and lack the ability to relax. My eldest sis is like this, she don't believe in relaxing and oh boy, she is like a dragon lady! She's very cynical and bitter, everything is stupid and dumb to her. I don't think I can remember the last time I've seen her laugh at something silly, she get's her jolly's by always putting people down, but since she's a lot older then me, I don't think she will ever change because she's old and set in her ways.I don't like being serious all the time also and it's not healthy to be overly serious all the time. Cutting lose once in awhile helps removes stress tremendously

People just too serious sometimes, they should have a joking faces or a smiling face to confront this cruel world. We all need to relax a little, otherwise we all gonna be crazy at some point. Why do we need all these stress levels imposed on ourselves. We should make a joke once in a while.
