Search Results: how to ask for a raise

This is a common humor that I've never understood, what's so funny about someone tripping, slipping, or falling in some other way?

When we were all walking back to class after lunch in 6th grade, I was too close to the slot where steel double doors close, and I accidentally kicked it and fell to my knees. People laughed at me, but I just looked at them, confused, as to why they thought it was funny.

In 2019, at an airsoft place, I accidentally kicked someone's hard rifle case, and fell down. I held my hand out, asking for someone's help, not one person giggled, and two people helped raise me to my feet.

It was a heartwarming display, but it also still begs the question, why would anyone find it funny to see someone slip, trip, or fall in some other way?

I asked a question about public embarrassments, and one person told me they were embarrassed when they slipped on a wet floor, and someone laughed at him, before helping him up. I don't get it, why would it be funny for a person to fall to the ground?

As kids, short and light as we were, falling to the ground is unlikely to have dire consequences, but as adults, falling to the ground and hitting the wrong place can lead to serious injury. Why anyone would laugh at that beats me.

So tell me, why would someone find it funny to see someone slip and fall to the ground?

This is a long story, you don't have to read it/

So yesterday I went to go see Dune 2 in theatres, I was by myself. As I'm watching the movie a woman behind me starts kicking my chair, I respond by taking out my phone and shining it directly in her face. She keeps kicking my chair throughout the movie and so I turn to face her husband who I confronted.

I asked him if he could stop kicking my chair. His wife raises her hand and says no it was me, so I then politely ask her to stop kicking my chair. I turn around and a few seconds later her husband taps me on the shoulder and asks if I could sit forward so his wife has more space for her feet.

At this point me and him start arguing while the movie is playing and the people around us can hear everything. I escalate things by shouting things like f you, f you and your wife, he leans forward and asks me if I want to fight, voice is very soft when he asks me this so I know he's a b. I turn to his wife and say your husband's a b and then turn around and continue watching the movie without interruption from him.

A young guy around my age in a group next to me then decides to confront me, he says "that's weird" how could you say that to a man etc. etc. Me and the young guy start exchanging insults. I say f you, call him a psyy and a pansi and continue watching the movie.

At the end of the movie as I'm going down the stairs I turn around say f you and ask him if he wants to fight I'll be waiting outside. I wait for his answer, and when he's quite I say "no?" He say's I have no friends with me and that he feels sorry for me because I went to a movie by myself. I say "f you I'm rich, tomorrow you go back to your sty as job and your sty as house, im rich f you". This is a crowded theatre and honestly it's kind of funny how nobody else said anything as we were shouting at each other. He stays quite and I walk away.

I have no respect and It might be a problem.

Maybe I should get a therapist, I'm out of touch
