What do you think of people who try to be funny all the time? There's this guy I know who tries to make a joke out of everything. It is really annoying, especially when everyone else is trying to be serious. I think it is rude, childish, and selfish. It also makes me think this person is very, very insecure. Unfortunately, there's nothing I can do about it. After all, it's a free country, isn't it?

I almost start to feel sorry for this person, then he comes out with another of his stupid, sarcastic jokes, and I lose all sympathy for him. I just wish he'd go away, but I don't think he ever will.

Sorry for the rant. I realize it doesn't have much to do with this forum, but I thought I'd post anyway. If you can offer any advice -- without making a joke out of it, that is -- I'd appreciate it.
