More funny in a way, I've got 3 brothers and was brought up in a household where we just regularly took the p*ss out of each other but with a (hidden) bit of affection, so it kinda encouraged a desire to prove people wrong but enough self deprecation not to get big headed about it. Even away from home I played a lot of sport growing up, and until a growth spurt was kinda one of the smallest players in most of the teams I played in. I loved being underestimated by the opposition, especially playing football I'd always target there biggest player/mouthiest player to tackle as soon as possible to let them know I wasn't intimidated... it didn't always work but hey that's a metaphor for life lol

You know what happens when you assume. You make an "ass" our of "u" and "me".
It's not funny, sad or pathetic. It's just stupid. Looks can be deceiving and people can surprise you. Except for blonds. We all know what they're like.
It can be sad for the person being underestimated. But when a person who does it winds up with egg on their face it can be either funny, sad or pathetic, depending on the circumstances.
Definitely more funny than sad. I don't feel sorry for people who look down on others. They would get what they deserved when one of the people who they didn't think much of was able to crush them at something.

Sad/pathetic because these people seriously believed that they were better. It is sad that people still feel this way about others and pathetic that by doing so it backfired in their faces.
I think assumptions are just dangerous but people are all too eager to follow them without question
Its more sad bc you should never judge a person by just what you see you might be surprised on what you might learn by someone if you just listened and got to know them.
Yeah in a way. You should leave people alone to do their thing, if they are not hurting anyone. But sometimes, people are predictable, people are terrible.
Definitely pathetic, especially if it was foreseeable.
Depends on the situation and frequency lol... but usually find it very funny... :)
I Find It Sad/Pathetic Especially When It Backfires On Them
Neither. Simply that they are not observant
Is all I glean.I find it amusing depending on what Iβm getting underestimated on.
Oh it's amazing it used to be a hobby like thing a jolly good old time.
Funny if it happens once. Sad/pathetic if it keeps happening.
it can be either depending on situation... i think its sad when someone disregards someone else just because of a misunderstanding but i find it funny when someone is trying to tell me how to weld
Funny, All the liberals underestimated Trump, and they still do. They just won't or can't face the facts. The majority of Americans like the job he is doing and he will win reelection. See how I can get politics in? You must use a disclaimer. LOL
It's funny when someone underestimates somebody and it just bites them in the butt lol
funny to see it backfire
I think it depends on the persons/situation
