Prejudice Is Not a Joke As a culture we tend to believe that because we have made great progress socially, we are no longer dealing with the struggles of racism and other forms of prejudice. If you were to ask any given person on the street about their views on prejudice towards another based on the color of their skin or their sexuality, people would give you great answers of how it’s reserved for those who are truly evil and hate other cultures, people who speak freely about their…

who laughs. Comedy movies put people in a better frame of mind and make them laugh. Although laughter is the intention, there is always that one person with an annoying or obnoxious laugh.

sensitive about. Although I may like to hear rude or vulgar humor, I don’t use it on others, because I don’t want to risk degrading or hurting someone else. Therefore, my sense of humor comes down to playfulness. I always smile brightly when I tell a joke to make sure that if I…

Which is true because now I can make jokes and use some of my mistakes or things like that to make people laugh or to grow from it.
