Do you laugh at people who get bad grades?
I do all the time. I think It's like the funniest thing in the world when my friends tell me they fail stuff. Or when I look over a shoulder of some bimbo and see she got a 30 out of 100 on her test.
Just makes me feel awesome about myself. Dunno why cause I get bad grades sometimes too.

Grades don't reflect intelligence. They reflect knowledge and your ability to do what you're told by following the rules. Laughing at someone who hates the educational system and refuses to follow it is simply caused by a lack of understanding, and laughing at someone who tried and got bad grades is of a similar concept. You don't necessarily understand the reasoning.
-
I helped one of my teachers TEACH a class, made a lesson plan and worksheets and everything. But I don't laugh at people, I average a C at math at best.
-
No. Different people, different interests, etc. Education isn't the only way to be successful, it just makes it easier.
-
If they legitimately don't have the ability to learn the material and get good grades then of course I wouldn't laugh at them, its sad. However, alot of people who get bad grades simply because they don't apply themselves since they are lazy. Then I laugh at them because it will affect them later in life and its their own fault.

No,Because that's pretty mean

I'm a HS drop-out. You wanna laugh at me?

Not really. A lot of my friends get some bad grades, yet a lot good grades too. Although one time my friend told me his cat died, and I burst out laughing. It's a good thing he that cat, or so he says.
-
I never laugh at people who get bad grades. A lot of my friends get bad grades. Why would I laugh?

Nope,i help them get better grades.

I used to. Then I got senioritis. I have a C in math right now. Some kid laughed at me, and I told him I had a 730 on the math section of the SAT, and a 34 on the Math section of the ACT, because I do, and he stopped talking immediately. Colleges aren't even concerned with senior grades that much.
-
Only when they have done the same to me. or have wronged me in some other way.
-
I don't laugh at all. I usually don't get bad grades but if I do, I start to get really nervous.
-
No, I was usually the one that got the bad grades. I was an ass though when I did better than them, I made sure they knew I got a better grade.

I'm not sure why you would laugh at someone for getting poor grades, unless it's clear that they want to be laughed at.
-
I do not laugh at them. Thats awful to do that, I hate it when people laugh at me. So why should I laugh them? I'm not a jerk like some people are. -AP-
-
Only if they get them because they are lazy and can't try. If they try their hardest and fail, then they still earn some respect for trying. Although I will laugh if it's pathetically low.
-
If they Try the no, even if they dont I feel sorry for them.
-
Rather laugh at someone who probably knew the information and was lazy and failed anyways as opposed of someone who tried to pass a class or test and failed. Those who least put effort into something shouldn't be laughed at :/
