We’ve all been there—someone makes a joke at your expense, everyone laughs, and you’re left wondering if you’re being too sensitive or if they were actually just being a dick. In this episode, Rosie and Roula dive into the fine line between playful banter and passive-aggressive digs disguised as “just jokes.”
We get into:
- Why some jokes feel more like punches than punchlines
- The weird way we’re conditioned to laugh along even when we’re hurt
- How to call people out without being labelled “too sensitive”
- What to do when the jokes come from family or people you can’t easily avoid
- And how mutual respect makes all the difference
Ever had to fake a laugh at a joke that stung? Or been the one who crossed the line? Let us know.
