well it depends on the joke. I am not the type of person who gets angry at everything all of a sudden. As long as the other person is being respectful, i will show the same toward the person. Last week, one of my friends sold me a crystal necklace and i wore it. Later on, i was suppose to meet my boyfriend with his friend and I told her that I wonder if my lover will notice the pendant. When all of us 4 met, he didn't notice it and I also forgot about it. But my friend poked me and reminded me. Then she told my boyfriend: 'you are stupid and ignorant. No...I mean no that you ignore your girlfriend but I G N O R A N T. I am just being honest...' I can tell that my boyfriend very was angry. Not only she insulted him but it was the first time they met so he sorts of has a bad impression of her now. On top of that, he felt humiliated in front of his other friend. As we went in our own direction to go back home, my friend texted message me and asked if my boyfriend was angry. Then I told her taht he was. She then replied...I don't care...he is just being weird because it was a joke....he's slow and doesn't get it. When I think about it, this could be debatable. There are things you can't just say to people just like that. Jokes are supposed to be friendly + funny and not offensive.

I tend to be quite the opposite of being an angry person. I am typically a person that is really easy to get along with. I will keep things that make me angry for as long as I can until I finally end up blowing up at someone or something. This isn't the best way to be, but it is the way that I have always been and as much as I have tried to change it, I haven't been able to do it. I would never hurt someone, but I will be somewhat verbally abusive when I reach my limit.

Hi abhi, it is not fair to think that some people dont have sense of humor! The problem is they've probably faced some situation in which somebody has ridiculed them or been mean to them or their loved ones. That is the reason they tend to become sensitive on some issues. Others may not have faced similar situations relating to the issue that you are joking about. That is why they tend to take it easy. You would be a good friend if you try to understand that there might be some underlying issues and therefore, join such a friend in retaliating against his or her foes, instead of becoming averse to such a friend.

And as to your query, yes, I get angry when some snide, shrewd, mean, selfish, cunning remarks are cleverly delivered calling them as jokes. I tend to expose such people and have the rest of the people develop a bad opinion about them. But I do it with equal shrewdness and calmness so that the person never ever repeats such things with anybody! :)

That would totally depend on the kind of person making jokes. If the jokes were too offensive, that the time i would feel angry. But sometimes i hold on to my temper to understand that kind of person because we have to accept that we cannot please anybody and yet many programs in our childhood why such person is acting that way. Respect is needed but there are really some they do not know if their jokes are hurting others. Maybe they find it humorous though they do not know that it is already hurting to the talked person.

I'm pretty light-hearted most of the time. I like to joke and play around when I have time. Typically, in a high pressure situation I turn into the calmest person in the building, but it took a long time to get that way. I'm a chef by trade. Like most chefs I push my people hard during busy times, and demand perfection. When I was younger I was quick to unleash "the Beast." As I became more experienced I realized that I set the tone and pace of the restaurant. I've adopted the same principles to my everyday life. You may get short-term results when you get angry, but if you can keep a clear head in a difficult situation you can build a team, keep your friends, and limit the amount of times in a day you feel compelled to apologize. A little control gives both long and short term results. Anger is usually born out of fear, or ignorance. I used to get angry because I was afraid of losing control of my restaurant. Besides, life is way too short to walk around in a huff all of the time.
