Do you take things seriously?

[milktae]

Depends on the situation for me

 

[GothiqueBat]

i take almost nothing seriously

Aside from chatting on forum sites and planning animal crossing towns and taking part in game events

 

[moo_nieu]

Yes and no? I’m terribly serious but also think that there isn’t really meaning to anything. It’s tragic really

 

[Dawnpiplup]

**** no

It depends, but yeah. My anxiety makes me take EVERYTHING seriously so it's hard not to. I do have like a joking side, but I tend to take things more seriously when it's very urgent or important.

I'm a bit of both. Sometimes I take things too seriously, particularly when I'm feeling anxious or on edge. Like if a coworker makes a remark even slightly against me, I overthink it even thought I know it's not serious. I take things like my education my career/job seriously, but other than that I'd say I'm pretty laid back. I pride myself on my silly sense of humour and making myself and others laugh.

Depends on the context. Usually I don't take things seriously in a social setting at all. I'm usually the one to joke around, and love chilling with people who likes to joke around as well.

I do think some things need to be taken seriously though, especially if the situation calls for it

 

[visibleghost]

depends on what the thing is. at the moment i'm pretty good at taking things too seriously and ending up having a breakdown about it

 

[Fjoora]

I'd say I'm a fairly to the point person. I speak very openly and very honestly, but at the same time, I have a lot of humor about the truth.
I don't get my feelings hurt easily and I try to always be optimistic.

Depends on the situation.

I usually don't take things super seriously but I do take them very personally and can be a super emotional person, making jokes and using humour has always been a coping mechanism for me so I usually make jokes if I'm upset or uncomfortable haha

It depends on the situation and context. If it's serious, I'll be serious but if someone knows me well enough, I might lighten up the situation with a joke or two. Sometimes humor is needed to help someone cope with whatever they're dealing with. The only thing I don't appreciate is sarcasm because it's pretty passive aggressive and self-serving. It's important to not make jokes at the person's expense, rather it's better to make fun of the situation itself (punching up rather than down).

i have a sense of humor but also there are some things that should be taken seriously, so i have a pretty good balance i think! i'm pretty quick to anger tho so sometimes i take things more serious than i need to...

I guess so, I think it comes from not being respected due to my age or gender (or whatever else). You can do silly things with me, but I also want to be seen as a real person with feelings and such if that makes sense. I don't like being made fun of either, I just want to be respected.

i feel the age and gender thing too. sometimes i think my brother thinks he knows better than me just bc hes a boy :/ i can tolerate a little bit of teasing, but everyone has their limits! theres nothing bad abt wanting to be respected! :3

I usually don't take things super seriously but I do take them very personally and can be a super emotional person, making jokes and using humour has always been a coping mechanism for me so I usually make jokes if I'm upset or uncomfortable haha

this too, i'm very driven by emotion and everything is personal to me, it's lead to some really bad situations ;w;

 

[amemome]

i think it depends. usually i take people for their word and then am corrected when they were kidding. it's much easier to say "lol oops!" than "i'm really sorry, i thought you were joking this whole time."

 

[coldpotato]

It depends on the things really. I love joking around a lot and making light of situations where joking around is appropriate!
If it's a situation where people or animals are being hurt, I will take it very seriously. If it's a discussion of mental illness, racism, or sexuality, I will also take it very seriously.

[Ghost Of Mascevanje]

The mods deleted my original reply from November, so apparently not.

 

[Jam86]

honestly no haha
i act like a child all the time and cannot take anything seriously ever, i really need to grow up soon but i also don't want to

 

[dragonpisces69]

Very often, yes, since I've always been a very naïve person, and especially on the internet where you cannot see someone's face whenever they make any statement
