Laughing When Someone Dies

Who here does it? Everytime someone tells me that someone has died, or that their pet died, I can't help but crack up, whether I feel sorry about the death or not. I wouldn't call it nervous laughter, its just a reaction that comes out of nowhere.
 
Its happened a few times when I didn't want/couldn't believe that someone died.
But it doesn't happen on the reg.
 
i don't think this is trolling, this sounds more like a legitimate question.
if he were trolling he would say something more like 'who else laughs when somebody else dies, i can't help it but i just think it's funny as shit.'
 
I'm gonna stand up for this unfortunate OP and say that I too sometimes have uncontrollable nervous laughter when I hear something extremely sad. For some people, its just how they react to tremendously sad moments.
 
It doesn't happen to me but it does to many a person. It's a nervous / shocked reaction where you simply don't know how to react. It often occurs to mask sadness or despair. I have a coach who was caught in a drive by shooting and instead of being scared or petrified, started laughing hysterically.
 
Happened to me once when my friend told me his grandpa died, I felt really bad, but I think it was what was previously stated, I didnt know how to react
 
i always laugh when the doctor takes blood or givres me shots, its not nervous at all, in fact i enjoy having all that done the nurses always stare at me like wtf is wrong with this kid.
 
i only lawl when someone dies ridiculously. like who the fuck gets killed by bees? you cant help but laugh when shit like that happens
 
when you made this thread you had to have thought, "how will people react to what i'm typing?" and if you didn't realize the thread was in pretty bad taste you're pretty unintelligent. think next time dude...it's not funny especially for somebody who's lost somebody very close to them.
inb4 "don't be so serious bro"
 
Yea I'm not 'trolling' this seriously happens to me and it sucks to laugh at the wrong moment but its very hard to control. Its not that I don't feel sad for people whose loved one's die but its just my reaction is to laugh.

I've had people tell me that its nervous laughter or that its my way to react to sadness but I don't think thats it cause even though I feel sorry for the people who lost someone, I don't personally feel sad about it, like it doesn't affect my mood.
 
Youre a fucking idiot.

OP i don't have your problem but i do laugh when people are pussies about death.
 
I have empathy issues as well, though not this laughter...not that many people or pets die around me to notice anything deviating from the norm.

It's just...when I hear someone close to me has malignant cancer, or is suicidal or I have to pull them up from rock bottom etc. I try my best to understand and "empathize", but I just cannot go through the same emotions. I really wish I could, it would help a lot in relationships when bad shit is going down on the other half and I should know how to react. I've only learned through testing.
 
I see, then my bad about thinking you were a troll.

Maybe you just lack empathy, I mean why should you feel bad when somebody dies that wasn't a big part of your life. I am the same way but I've never laughed. But laughing? I dunno, I was gonna say maybe it's nervous laughter, but sounds like that's not the case. This is probably best for a doctor, not NS children.
 
i laughed at a friends death once because i couldn't believe he died. That makes sense as a natural reaction; not believing or wanting to believe what happened.
 
i laugh when friends fall really hard skiing or something, even if they are obviously its hurt its still funny but i have never and could never laugh at someone actually dying
 
Suck my fucking dick you noob fuck. Nowhere in anything that I posted was something worthy of being called an idiot.
Try not being a pussy about death when it's somebody in your immediate family you inconsiderate piece of shit. OP has no idea who his audience is when he writes something so stupid and neither do you. Try contributing something helpful to this website rather than stupid comments. Go fuck yourself
 
why is everyone too high up on their horses to realize that some people do actually react this way to death? its something that happens and i'm shocked that you all are too fucking retarded to realize this... ok i'm not shocked but i thought by now you would have learned this. stop being such pussies to how the world works.
 
He's completely right though. That,^ hippo, is why youre a fucking idiot. Sorry you have had to deal with deaths in your family and your own stupidity
 
Laughing is a nervous response when one doesn't want to follow protocol, yet has no experience in the matter.
 
i have never laughed upon hearing someone died, however i laughed my ass off when my aunt got hit by a car while riding her moped. she was okay though...for the most part
