just a heads up for people that like to joke around it is great to make jokes not okay to make them geared towards someone. exspecially people you do not know. I would suggest instead of making fun of someone you really don't know well get to know them first. because just maybe you may find out they don't like the personal jokes for difference reasons that you may not know of, As not to hurt that person further. as you do not know what the person has faced and it can bring up alot of bad things to them..

That is very true, Cher :) It is great to be able to laugh with others, and to even laugh at ourselves, but nobody really appreciates being laughed at. There is a big difference. Welcome to CC!

Philippians 2:3-4, "doing none at all through selfishness or self-conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourselves. Each one should look out not only for his own interests, but also for the interests of others."

Matthew 7:12, "So whatever you wish that others would do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets."

Yes, cher, even as we read, see or hear about what others write, say or do, many do not and cannot really always write or say what they are or have inside. Blessed are they that come in the name of the Lord... Yes, we are told to enjoy life and the labors of our hands, no problem with joking around as long as not at the expense of others.
