How to STOP that Awful Sarcasm & Put-Down Humor

Updated: 3 days ago

I froze, face reddening. Everyone looked at me, waiting to see how I would take the "joke."

Barely breathing, a smile pasted on my face; I felt resentful, hurt, and angry. I finally dropped my eyes, shook my head, and remained silent.

Sadly, I have known people who enjoyed spreading sarcasm and put-down humor: my father, 2 friends at school and even a romantic relationship.

And I rarely spoke up! I told myself I did not want to damage the relationship, but really, I hated confrontations. And deep down? Well, I thought I deserved it.

The few times I did speak up and object, they said, Lighten up, or I was only joking, or What’s wrong? Can’t take a joke?

When I persisted, tried to explain why I didn't like it, that it hurt, and if somebody had said it to them, they wouldn't like it either, they replied, You’re too sensitive.

I finally realized that no explanation would ever work with these people. They just will not/cannot admit that their words are hurtful.

Much later, I also realized that whatever I'm feeling is my truth. And if somebody thinks I am too sensitive, that is their problem. My problem is learning to stand up for myself.

How to Stop Them

There are two ways to shut down the meanest of ‘jokers’ quickly, quietly, and with your chin up.

In a group setting

Look at the person and ask, Where did that come from? This usually puts them on the defensive and scrambling for a response.

With an individual

I wrote this from the viewpoint of an abused woman: Last night, I forgot a bag of groceries in the car, and he said, “What, Alzheimer’s already?”

Then, this morning, I broke a coffee mug, and from the living room, he yelled, “I signed you up for a class in coordination. You start tomorrow.”

And later, he discovered a mistake in our checkbook and ‘joked,’ “If only you were smart too.”

To stop abuse from an individual, first try the same question: Where did that come from? If you do not think it will work, or it does not work, use these two steps:

1.) Choose a short sentence like That hurt, or I didn’t like that, or That felt awful.

2.) Then, in response to their sarcasm or put-down humor, say those words, and only those words, no matter what the joker says: do not argue, debate, or defend. Do not try to make them feel wrong or bad.

Simply repeat and keep repeating.

There will likely come a moment when they finally hear you, and if you repeat those simple words every time, there is a good chance they will stop.

If you have any trouble doing the above, try this: Have a friend play the role of abuser, and you practice asking, Where did that come from? or use your chosen words.

The goal is to find a quiet but strong voice and be sure to have some fun with it. Or, instead, imagine your abuser and practice in front of a mirror.

Your first efforts out in the world might not work because your voice/manner is not strong enough. But you deserve to feel the power and joy of standing up for yourself, so if you stumble or cannot do it at all, go back to practicing (no matter how much you might not want to).

And know that every practice session and every attempt to speak up increases your inner strength (regardless of how you feel)—every time.

The Power to Change

[partywithoutsmiling]

Another AU that has been knocking around my mind for a while XD I call it Moonlit AU

It can be summed as such: Pop Trolls are pretty wild bunch when it comes to looks, varying in colours, flocking/fur patterns, glitter, freckles, hair, you name it

It got me thinking, what sort of thing would they find attractive in prospective partner? While singing/harmonizing could be a part of it (and ngl, that did made me think of the Happy Feet movies, as silly as those were), my mind turned towards more physical attributes

Thus, this AU was born- where one of the reasons why Pop trolls like to be most active at night (to party) is that a Moon's Light also allows them to appreciate fur/flocking patterns otherwise hidden, where the complexity and style varies from troll to troll, as is thought to show one's inner self

Contrary to what one would expect from the Princess (and future Queen) of Pop, Poppy's patterns are rather simple- but striking nonetheless, firm and bold stripes, like taking a wide brush to a canvas- straightforward but chaotic in their hardly orderly fashion Poppy struts her patterns; they are unique and dominant among the general showing of swirls, polka dots and flower like spottings She is aware her stripes are not considered the most attractive of features- too similar to that of a predatory critter, too sharp for who is supposed to be cheerful queen of equally cheerful people- but she is a romantic at heart and believes that when it will be time to choose a consort, those physical features are surface-level importance at best, and this is the mentality she has going forward, looking at the glowing marks of her friends and considering them equally beautiful no matter what.

Until she manages to spot Branch one night outside under the full moon light that is.

Branch's pattern, in high contrast to Poppy, is far more complex. Symetrical but delicate in its filigree, and far more detailed than anything the Princess has ever seen before. Usually, Branch ventures out only on moonless nights, as he feels the glow of his marks are too visible, too dangerous to just show out and about, for every dangerous predator to see- and it is purely bad luck when bad weather caughts him outside longer than he would have liked, and Poppy manages to catch the sight of him while he is completely unaware he had been seen.

All her conviction flies right out of the window, as she looks at his delicate patterning and her mind just goes blank and - Oh

Usually she would have called out to him, ask him to come to a party- but she feels mesmerized, hypnotized by the elegance of the filigree, and her mind longs for a way to memorate it forever- with a photo, or a painting- and she stares at the entrance of his bunker long after he vanished inside, completely stupefied and wrong footed.

Before, Poppy hardly ever gave Branch a thought, when it came to this part of Pop Troll culture; as part of her, guiltily, sort of assumed that with his lack of colour, his patterning would be rather bland as well- and besides, it's not like he ever shown a desire to participate in courting dances.

But now she is left with sudden new, and unexpected feeling- her heart and breath going now a bit faster everytime she catches a glimpse of him from now on, her cheeks flushing and her tail wagging in excitement

(Her desk's drawer is filled with failed cut out scrapbook pieces of leaves and tiny detailed filigree, as she attempts to journal her sudden and new discover and cant get it quite right)

Tldr; Pop Trolls have fur/flocking patterns that appear only under the moon's light, and Poppy finds Branch's so irresistibly attractive she hardly knows what to do with herself

This pushes her to try and spend more time with him- just spend time with him, no trying to push him to go to parties with her or trying to get him to sing or hug

For his part, Branch is both secretly pleased his own crush is now paying more attention to him than to Creek (who is not happy with this development) but also holy shit Poppy is paying more attention to him, so it is kind of unnerving for him, freaking him out

[twilightofthesandwiches]

I already talked about, like, the Obvious Symbolism of Simon reaching his lowest point literally dressed like the Ice King and then gradually gets back to his old outfit as he starts climbing out of his depressive spiral, at least somewhat.

But it’s also really interesting, maybe even more interesting, how Fionna’s outfit has been gradually shifting and changing with basically every adventure.

My first thought was that it really shows Fionna coming into her own as a character. The more she grows and also the more character development she gets - the more the audience learns to see her as more than just Girl Finn - the more her outfit moves away from just being a slightly girlier version of Finn’s classic look and into being its own thing. 

Because Fionna is her own character. 

But my second thought was more about the first time Fionna’s classic outfit got an update in this series.

This wouldn’t really relate to my first reading, since it just kinda makes her outfit closer to Finn. But it does relate to the most important Theme that her character arc revolves around - Fantasy versus Reality.

Fionna starts out the story interacting with the idea of magical adventure and heroism via the lens of fantasy. She compares everything to video games and just thinks about everything in terms of it being cool and fun and she literally tries to chase down a person from her dreams.

And her mindset was probably only reinforced by discovering she was literally created to be the Main Character in God’s little fantasy universe literally created out of self-indulgence for his silly little stories.

And because of that, she starts out the story with a huge Protagonist-Centered-Morality blind spot where she can’t recognize when she and Cake are in the wrong

And she rushes into action and violence just thinking it’s ‘cool’

And, like, in general acting without thinking of the consequences.

And at basically every step of this adventure, these kinda actions clashed against the reality of her situation. And it all started when she pointed out to her own creator that the outfit he designed for her is cute - but extremely unrealistic for an adventurer like herself

And from there we move to Fionna experiencing more and more of the harsh consequences of assuming everything should fit into her fantasies of heroes and villains 

And that she should punch first and ask questions later 

And in general that it’s always better to trust her guts over her head. 

And with every one of her experiences, the bright and adorable outfit that is a reminder of her origin as God’s Most Self-Indulgent OC gets tweaked in more way - turning it into something that looks a lot more, for the lack of a better word, gritty. And also turning it further and further away from the outfit of her own literal fantasies.

And all of these horrible traumatic experiences and the general dangers of the magical and very different world she’s in have all weathered down Fionna’s original optimism and eagerness and brashness that originally defined her and turned her terribly overprotective and scared instead. And it really reminds of how Simon’s own trauma weathered him down. 

Turning him from a kind man with a passion for adventure and the fantastical and a powerful parental instinct to a miserable jerk who aches for mundanity and made a little girl cry

Until he got to his very lowest point.

So I’m guessing next up for Fionna is getting to see her regain some of her old identity that the Trauma has been tearing away at - getting back some of that cheerfulness and brash attitude and adventurous spirit. Because while it has put herself and her teammates and others in serious troubles - it’s also been a huge help at other times (especially as she's a good counterbalance to Simon ‘slow but dependable’ Petrikov)

She needs to find the balance, learning the lessons from her multiverse adventure without losing all the things that made her Fionna Campbell in the first place.

And I wonder if this development is gonna be paralleled with a return of some of the more ‘classic’ elements of her look - or if her outfit is instead going to diverge farther?

My ghost biology head canon

I've found that sharing my head canons is a lot of fun, so I thought I would share more of my thoughts on ghosts.

First off, I imagine the particulars of how ghosts work being something that varies widely. There are some things that are relevant for everyone, but a lot of things that you would expect to be species-wide constants vary based on the individual.

Each person's experience as a ghost is shaped by their particular mind and what works for them, with some minor influence from their ideas about ghosts. While their assumptions/beliefs about ghosts can influence how they function as a ghost, it will never override their own nature and cause them to develop into something antithetical to their own self.

Do ghosts need to eat? Some do. Some don't.

Do ghosts need to sleep? Some do. Some don't.

Are ghosts bound to a place or object? Some are. Some aren't.

I imagine that some ghosts have cores that function like a brain/heart/whatever, are their one vulnerability, and injuries to them are serious business, like the fandom likes to imagine. I don't personally think this would be true across the board. Some would have cores that operate differently and others would have a system that doesn't have anything similar to cores at all.

Some ghosts might have something that could be called a core, but rather than a delicate vital organ, it's more like a combination of a lifeboat and the black box from an airplane. It's small and not especially powerful but virtually indestructible. If their body gets messed up too badly they can jettison themselves as a core and hide away somewhere safe until they manage to rebuild their body.

I imagine Skulker working like this. The "real Skulker" is not a tiny blob sitting in a cockpit, piloting a giant robot. When he's all suited up, he's experiencing things as the man-sized being he appears to be. That said, if he gets roughed up to the point where it makes more sense to just cut his losses, he can go tiny-blob-mode and bail before rebuilding himself.

Some ghosts exist split among multiple bodies because some parts of themselves work better separately. I imagine Johnny 13 and his Shadow are actually one ghost, but there were parts of himself he didn't understand and wasn't managing well that he was better equipped to understand and accommodate as a separate being. Johnny probably fought a lot with shadow when he was newly formed before stepping back and finally managing to view him with a sort of empathy that is often easier to offer to others than to oneself.

The particulars of Danny's ghost half were largely shaped by the dance of give and take between his human and ghost half adapting together. A lot of it either follows the lines of his human half or fills in the gaps, but it also follows Danny's nature in ways that always would have been part of his ghostly self even if he hadn't been a halfa. Being the child of ghost hunters actually left Danny with less of an idea of what ghosts were than the average person because he actively avoided thinking about it as much as he could, so a lot of his ideas about ghosts stem from his own personal experiences. His ghostly nature is fluid and highly adaptable, as well as eager to learn and explore.

Sometimes he develops abilities similar to things he's seen other ghosts do because "that's something ghosts can do." Sometimes he develops abilities as a response to whatever stress he's under (Danny will never admit he developed accelerated language acquisition because he was so stressed out about his grades that his ghost half interpreted the need to better understand purple-backed gorillas as a life or death emergency). Some just happen just because he grew that way.

Ghosts in general are not static. They learn and grow and change over time. The particulars of how they change over time are a bit less predictable than for humans, but it happens. They can have children (like Box Lunch) but the development of those children may not follow the same patterns as a human child's development.

I don't tend to imagine ghosts having "obsessions," exactly. The term "obsession" implies that it is unhealthy, overpowering, and impeding one's ability to function. Instead, I imagine them having something I'm calling "focal points" until I come up with a better name.

Focal points are things that are important, grounding, and central to a ghost's experience of the world. They may be activities or subjects of interest, but ghosts need to engage with at least some of their focal points with relative frequency for their health. Ghosts generally have more than one focal point and engage with different ones at different times.

Being denied access to one focal point in the short run will be disappointing but not dangerous, so long as they can still engage with others. Long-term, lack of access to one of their focal points can cause restlessness, anxiety, irritiability, and depression.

In some cases, a long-term inability to engage with a specific focal point may result in a focal shift, in which the focal point changed to something more reachable. This happens most frequently with a focal point centered on a person who is not willing to cooperate. While the focal shift is ongoing, the ghost will be atypically sensitive and prone to mood swings and experience an amount of discomfort proportional to how major of a focal point they are shifting. After the focal shift is over, the ghost should be able to function normally with no lingering ill-effects.

Not every focal point can be shifted and ghosts are highly recommended to seek council from a professional in ghost-medicine on any focal point related difficulties before making any decisions on how to proceed.

If not managed in a healthy way, it is possible for a ghost's relationship with one or more of their focal points to start bridging into obsessive territory, but this is the result of a problem, not normal functioning.

Common Childhood Illnesses Treated by a Paediatrician

Childhood is a time of rapid growth, exploration, and development—but it’s also when children are most vulnerable to infections and illnesses. Their immune systems are still developing, which makes them prone to various health issues. While many childhood illnesses are mild and self-limiting, some require timely diagnosis and expert care.

Why Enrolling in the Best Arabic Classes for Kids Is a Smart Choice

Learning a new language is a fantastic way to expand a child’s horizons, and Arabic is one of the most rewarding languages to learn. If you're considering teaching your child Arabic, finding the Best Arabic Classes for Kids can offer numerous benefits that go beyond just language skills. These classes provide an opportunity for children to connect with a rich cultural heritage, improve cognitive abilities, and open doors to new experiences. Let's take a look at some of the key reasons why enrolling in these classes is a great idea.

1. Introduction to a New Culture

Arabic is spoken by millions of people across the globe, making it one of the most important languages in terms of global communication. When children learn Arabic, they are not only learning a language but also gaining access to the cultures of many different countries. From the Middle East to North Africa, Arabic-speaking communities have rich traditions, histories, and art that children can better understand and appreciate. Through language classes, kids can also learn about the customs, food, music, and festivals that are unique to Arabic-speaking cultures, helping to broaden their worldview.

2. Cognitive Benefits

Learning a second language has been proven to boost brain development in children. Studies show that bilingual children tend to perform better in tasks that involve problem-solving, multitasking, and creativity. Arabic, in particular, is a complex and intricate language with a unique alphabet and grammar rules, which can help children sharpen their cognitive abilities. It also helps improve memory, focus, and concentration as kids work on understanding the new vocabulary and sentence structures.

Moreover, mastering Arabic can improve literacy skills in children’s first language as they compare and contrast language structures. This kind of mental exercise not only strengthens their linguistic abilities but also enhances their overall academic performance.

3. Better Opportunities in the Future

Being bilingual is an asset in today’s interconnected world. By learning Arabic, kids gain an edge when it comes to future career opportunities. Arabic-speaking countries are important players in global business, politics, and diplomacy. As your child grows older, knowing Arabic can provide them with an advantage in fields such as international relations, business, journalism, translation, and more.

Additionally, many universities and scholarship programs around the world look for students who have a strong grasp of foreign languages, especially one as widely spoken as Arabic. By getting an early start, kids can set themselves up for success in their academic and professional lives.

4. Increased Confidence

As kids progress in their Arabic classes, they will likely experience a sense of accomplishment and pride in their new skills. This increased confidence is not only limited to language learning but can extend to other areas of their lives. Successfully learning a new language helps build resilience and a growth mindset, teaching children that they can overcome challenges through effort and determination.

Learning Arabic also encourages children to express themselves in different ways. They can share their thoughts, ideas, and experiences with Arabic-speaking peers and family members, further boosting their self-assurance in social settings.

5. Improved Communication Skills

By taking the Best Arabic Classes for Kids, children not only learn to speak Arabic but also develop better communication skills overall. Learning how to express oneself in another language requires attention to detail, active listening, and the ability to articulate thoughts clearly. These skills are valuable in all aspects of life, whether it’s in school, at home, or with friends.

Moreover, since Arabic has its own unique script and alphabet, children can improve their reading and writing abilities as they become familiar with a completely different writing system. This can encourage them to appreciate the written word and may even inspire a love for reading and writing in general.

6. Enhanced Social Connections

Learning Arabic can also help children connect with other kids who speak the language, either locally or abroad. These connections can provide opportunities for cultural exchange, new friendships, and deeper understanding of the world around them. With so many Arabic-speaking communities around the world, kids can use their language skills to communicate with peers from diverse backgrounds, fostering empathy, respect, and global awareness.

Additionally, if your family has ties to an Arabic-speaking community, learning the language can help children strengthen those relationships by making communication easier and more meaningful. Whether it’s talking to grandparents, cousins, or family friends, speaking Arabic can deepen family bonds and create lasting connections.

7. Fun and Interactive Learning

The Best Arabic Classes for Kids don’t just focus on grammar and vocabulary; they make learning fun and engaging through games, songs, stories, and activities that keep kids interested. This playful approach helps children retain what they learn more easily and ensures that they enjoy the process of acquiring a new skill. By making learning a language enjoyable, kids are more likely to stick with it and continue practicing long-term.

Many Arabic classes for kids also incorporate cultural elements like traditional stories, arts, and crafts, making the learning experience rich and dynamic. Children can gain firsthand knowledge about the history and traditions of Arabic-speaking regions while developing their language skills.

Conclusion

There are many reasons why enrolling your child in the Best Arabic Classes for Kids is a wise decision. From gaining a deeper understanding of different cultures to improving cognitive skills and opening doors to future opportunities, learning Arabic can provide a wealth of benefits. It’s an investment that will serve your child for years to come, both personally and professionally. So, if you're considering giving your child the gift of a second language, Arabic is certainly a choice worth making.

Dubai South's Explosive Growth as New Terminal Takes Shape

Dubai South: A Booming Aerotropolis Poised for Explosive Growth as New Super-Terminal Takes Shape

Dubai South, a sprawling master development anchored by Al Maktoum International Airport (DWC), is on the cusp of a transformative growth spurt. The catalyst for this surge? The construction of DWC's monumental Dh128-billion passenger terminal, a project destined to reshape Dubai's aviation landscape and redefine the concept of an "airport city." Developers anticipate a dramatic population increase in the next few years, transforming Dubai South from its current 25,000 residents to a bustling metropolis of over one million people upon the terminal's opening. This ambitious undertaking is not merely about building an airport; it's about creating a self-sustaining urban ecosystem, an aerotropolis, where aviation, logistics, commerce, and residential life converge seamlessly.

Why Choose a Boarding School? Key Benefits for Students and Parents

Choosing the right school for your child is a crucial decision that shapes their future. While day schools are common, many parents consider boarding schools for their children due to the unique advantages they offer. A boarding school provides a structured environment where students not only gain academic knowledge but also develop essential life skills. In this blog, we will explore the key benefits of choosing a boarding school for students and parents alike.

1. Holistic Development

Boarding schools focus on the all-round development of students. They offer a balanced mix of academics, extracurricular activities, sports, and life skills. Unlike day schools, boarding schools encourage students to become independent, responsible, and disciplined from a young age. This holistic approach helps in shaping their personality and preparing them for future challenges.

2. Academic Excellence

Many boarding schools maintain high academic standards, providing a structured and distraction-free environment for learning. With dedicated faculty and well-equipped facilities, students receive quality education. Teachers also provide additional mentoring beyond classroom hours, ensuring that students understand concepts thoroughly. If you are looking for a best residential school in Dehradun, you will find institutions that excel in both academics and character-building.

3. Independence and Responsibility

Living away from home teaches students important life skills such as time management, organization, and self-discipline. They learn to take responsibility for their actions, make decisions, and manage their daily routines without parental supervision. This fosters self-confidence and prepares them for adulthood.

4. Exposure to a Diverse Community
