Do you also make fun of people with turbins? What about noserings or eyerings? What about someone who is goth? Gold chains? Some different ethnic group?

Yes to all. Except the turbans and ethnicity. Unless they're Transylvanian -- you've got to make fun of that. Well, some turbans are just funny -- like the kind Arafat used to wear.

If you have a choice to do something, and do it, you're getting made fun of.

There's a difference between laughing at something stupid on the spur of the moment and delighting in someone's misery.

If someone misreads a hand or slips and falls or their dentures fall out or their toupee blows off, that's funny [censored].

If you go out of your way to embarrass someone, make them feel stupid, silly, or bad in any way, you're an [censored], pure and simple.

Completely disagree. Dentures or toupee falling off is only funny if the victim is an ass hole. Then they deserve it. And if they deserve it, I may not go out of my way, but I certainly won't try to hide my amusement (laughter). There are few better feelings than laughing at dousche bag that just made themself look like a jackass.
