laugh at oneself

Lu Xun

What do you want to send, canopy? You dare not turn over, you have already met.

A broken hat covered the face of the bustling city, and a leaky boat was carrying wine.

Bow your head a thousand fingers, bow your head and be a willing ox.

Hide in the small building into a unified ⑤, regardless of winter Xia Chunqiu ⑤.

2.2 "self-deprecating" notes

(1) Lu Xun's Diary 1932 10 June 12: "In the afternoon, there was a banner for Liu Yazi's book, and the cloud said,' What do you want? ".Damien duff, idle people pumping oil, stealing half a couplet, always please eat. 1On October 5th, Yu Dafu hosted a banquet for his younger brother Yu Hua in Jufeng Garden and invited Lu Xun to accompany him. Idle people, (preface to three idle episodes) said: "I will print the materials collected when compiling a brief history of Chinese novels into notes on old stories to preserve the power of young people to censor, and Cheng refers to idle people in the name of the proletariat." As for "leisure", I named my prose collection "Three Leisure Collections" and called myself "Idle People". Oil painting is my humble name, a doggerel. There are three ways to steal half couplet: First, Comrade Guo Moruo thinks that borrowing Qian Ji's "full-fed sweet cow" is not half couplet but half sentence, see Note 4. Second, borrow the poem "An old hat covers a busy city" written by Yao Wan, a poet from Nanshe. 3. Comrade Xiong Rong offered Lu Xun a dinner party that day. Yu Dafu joked, "Have you worked hard these days?" Lu Xun answered him with a pair of "cross-browed" couplets he thought of the day before. Duff joked: "It seems that your Gai Huayun or Han lost?" Lu Xun said, "Well, to tell you this, I got half a couplet and I can compose a small poem." The so-called stealing half a couplet refers to the first sentence (Don't >, People's Daily,1February 22, 962). Press, say it's a half sentence rather than a half couplet; Second, this poem can't be found in Nanshe Poetry Collection; The three statements are relatively consistent. In the poems contained in the diary, "breaking" means "old" and "leaking" means breaking. Later, when Lu Xun wrote a fan for Yong Cheng in the Japanese Isaiah skirt, he also made a "look" at the "right" in this poem.

2 Gai Hua: Lu Xun's Collection of Notes on Gai Hua: "I have never learned fortune telling in my life, but I heard from the old man that people sometimes have to pay Gai Hua Yun. ..... This kind of luck is good luck for monks: there is a canopy at the top, which is naturally a symbol of becoming a Buddha and creating ancestors. But laity can't. The canopy is on the floor and will be covered, so we have to hit a nail. " Gai Hua covered her head with clouds like flowers. "Notes on Ancient and Modern Times": "Gai Hua, what the Yellow Emperor did; In the field of Zhuolu, there are often five-color clouds, golden branches and jade leaves, which end in the emperor and have the image of flowers, so it is also a canopy. " This refers to the car cover made by the Yellow Emperor in imitation of clouds and gas.

(3) Missing sentence: Woods Bingzhi; "If you are on a leaky boat," Bi Zhuo said in Biography of the Book of Jin Bi Zhuo, "If you drink hundreds of boats, ... you will spend your life on a floating boat."

④ Cattle: Comrade Guo Moruo mentioned in "The Qualitative Change of Cattle" that a famous article quoted in Volume I of Hong's "Beijiang Poetry Talk" wrote: "When the wine is full, become a butterfly will turn; when the rice is full, it will turn." It is pointed out that "but this allusion, once in the hands of Lu Xun, has completely changed its quality." Here, it is really decadent and magical. "(People's Daily 1962 65438+ 10/6)" Zuo Zhuan mourns for six years ":"The steamed stuffed bun said,' Have you forgotten that you are a sweet cow and have a broken tooth?' "Qi Jinggong loves his children, pretending to be a cow with a rope in his mouth and letting them ride. The child fell and pulled out his tooth.

⑤ Unification: That is to say, I hide in a small building and have a unified world.

Never mind winter Xia Chunqiu: No matter how the climate outside changes. Lu Xun is often oppressed by white terror, so it is compared to "making a fortune, but not daring to turn over." In order to avoid the pursuit and persecution of reactionaries, they covered their faces with broken hats when crossing the downtown area. In this way, the situation is still very dangerous, just like a leaking ship carrying wine floating in the current, and it will sink if it is not careful. In such a dangerous environment, Lu Xun adopted a firm and uncompromising fighting attitude.

2.3 "self-mockery" solution

Interpretation of the title of "Self-mockery": First, it says: "As for the word" self-mockery "written by Lu Xun, it is just a kind of music. In fact, Mr. Lu Xun does not need to laugh at himself. " Since there is no need to laugh at yourself, why "laugh at yourself"? Does it mean that there is no "self-mockery" when you say "Qubi"? This problem is not clear. The second is to say: "This poem is called self-mockery, but it is actually a mockery of the enemy." That is to mock the enemy, not laugh at yourself. If you really don't laugh at yourself, why write "laugh at yourself"? Third, "self-mockery is self-mockery. What does Lu Xun laugh at himself for? Laughing at one's own experience and one's own situation means laughing at the persecution of the enemy. " "It's self-mockery, and the object of every poem is always yourself." Laughing at yourself is laughing at the enemy? Every poem is a mockery of itself. Is "coldly looking at a thousand fingers" also a mockery of yourself?

How do you explain "self-mockery"? The topic of "self-mockery" has its origin. There is a theory in Selected Works, including Dong Fangshuo's Difficult to Answer Guests, Yang Xiong's All Tides and Ban Gu's Answering Guests. These three topics all have paragraphs and scenes, and the first one is Jie Chao. These three articles are all explaining the ridicule of the guests, not "self-mockery", but different from "self-mockery". However, in the biography of Han Dong Fang Shuo, I said, "Because it is difficult to set up a guest, I masturbate with my job." It was Dong Fangshuo who assumed that the guest was mocking himself, not the guest, but he was mocking himself, and then he answered himself. Yang Xiong's Xiechao, Ban Gu's Answering the Guest Play and Han Yu's Yi Jie Xue are all the same. It is assumed that a person will ridicule himself, but he is actually mocking himself and then answering himself. Therefore, Dong Fangshuo and other three articles are called "hypothesis" in Selected Works, which shows that the self-deprecating guest is assumed by the author, that is, the author laughs at himself. This kind of article is divided into two parts, one is mocking yourself and the other is answering. In fact, it is self-mockery and self-explanation, but it is just ridicule and self-explanation by formal guests.

Lu Xun's "self-mockery" is a change from this kind of "self-mockery" articles, and it is called "self-mockery" without formal self-explanation. In fact, the past "self-mockery" is divided into two parts, and so is Lu Xun's "self-mockery". In the past, it was assumed that the guests asked themselves questions to ridicule themselves. Lu Xun's Self-mockery also asked questions to ridicule himself, such as "What do you want from the canopy", which is actually a question. What else do you want from the canopy? Previous articles about "making fun of others" all have their own opinions, such as "bad lips and bad teeth" written by Dongfang Shuo, "the rise and fall of official career" written by Yang Xiong, "the balance of body" written by Ban Gu, "putting an end to the past is easy to blame" written by Han Yu, and "fighting for death is useless". Lu Xun also had similar "self-mockery", such as "dare not turn over when meeting", which is similar to being afraid of meeting the "balance gate" and "complaining about others"; Writing your own description is the same as writing your own "rotten lips and teeth" and "clumsy teeth" This is the self-deprecating part.

In the past, the part of "laughing with laughter" often occupied its own position. For example, Dong Fangshuo said "working together with Fan Li to be loyal to the son", and Yang Xiong said "Today's son laughs at the phoenix with a owl", comparing himself to the phoenix and the "wall of harmony" that Ban Gu said.

"A thousand years, it's time." Lu Xun also made a mockery, that is, "bow down and be a willing ox", and its profound significance has been expounded by Chairman Mao, which naturally goes far beyond the predecessors. Therefore, there is a self-deprecating part in "Self-mockery", unlike the explanation quoted above, which thinks that "self-mockery" is a tune and a "mockery of the enemy". How can it be a "curveball" to say that you are lucky and dare not turn over and cover your face with a broken hat? How can it be a mockery of the enemy? Isn't the delivery of China cover the delivery of China cover? How can you mock the enemy when you say you are lucky? "Self-mockery" has a self-explanation part, and not every sentence is self-mockery.

Of course, Lu Xun's "self-mockery" is very different from his predecessors' "laughter" in form and content. The predecessors laughed at themselves, but Lu Xun only called it "self-mockery", which is a different proposition. The predecessors used the teasing of guests to express their grievances, and used self-explanation to occupy their own identity, mainly laughing at themselves, and did not dare to touch the feudal rulers for their grievances and beautify them. Lu Xun's Self-mockery is a revolutionary poem, which dares to stab the Kuomintang reactionaries directly, showing his contempt for the enemy and his determination to fight for the revolutionary cause to the end. So what's the point of comparing it with the previous "laughing back to laughing"? This just shows the development of Lu Xun's creation, just like Lu Xun's "I am lovelorn" has inheritance and development. Pointing this out will help us understand the topic of "self-mockery" and make it more in line with the reality of poetry.

2.4 Self-deprecating translation

The title of this poem is Self-mockery. If we interpret this poem directly without the artistic features of "teasing", readers will understand this poem as a heroic poem. Irony is the conventional weapon of "ridicule", and this poem is ironic as a whole. Irony should naturally be interpreted correctly, but first of all, we should appreciate it in order to appreciate Lu Xun's unique sharp, spicy and optimistic humor style in this poem, realize his infinite love for the people and his incomparable hatred for the enemy, and thus appreciate the beauty of art. The literal translation of the vernacular is as follows:

How can you want to have a good thing if you are unlucky? Lying in bed can't even turn your head against the wall. So I broke my hat in the street to cover my face, for fear of being seen and causing unexpected disasters. I am like the wine in a leaky boat, spinning in the torrent in the middle of the river, and I am in danger of being swallowed up by the river at any time, and I can't escape bad luck! I am unpopular, and many people scold me, scold me and curse me. I should have died without illness, but I have to live as usual, without moving my eyebrows, without being sad or angry. It's shameless. I also know that I have no ambition and no ability, but I am really a loser. I am willing to play the old cow at home and let my children lead me and play with them. However, I am timid when I am scolded by others. As long as I have a small building to live in, hiding in it will become a unified country, and I don't care about anything outside.

2.5 Understanding of Self-mockery

This is a well-known poem. Comrade Mao Zedong said in "Speech at Yan 'an Forum on Literature and Art": "Two poems by Mr. Lu Xun:' Bow your head and be a willing ox' should be our motto. The "thousand commandments" here refer to the enemy, and we will never give in to any vicious enemy. The "obedient children" here refer to the masses of the proletariat. All * * * party member, all revolutionaries and all revolutionary literary and art workers should follow the example of Lu Xun and be the' cows' of the proletariat and the people, and do their best until they die. " This paper expounds the positive implication of this connection in the poem extremely accurately, and also reveals the theme of the whole poem with the finishing touch. This is undoubtedly very important for us to correctly and profoundly understand the ideas expressed in Lu Xun's poems. Chairman Mao spoke highly of this spirit. Being persecuted by reactionaries, Lu Xun often hides, so "hiding in a small building" is realistic, but it is not limited to realism. At that time, the reactionaries lost a large area of land in the northeast. 1932 During the December 8th Incident, the National Government moved its capital to Luoyang to avoid the threat of the enemy, and did not move back to Nanjing until February this year. The author didn't move back when he wrote this poem, so he ironically only knows how to avoid it, no matter how endangered the motherland is.

In this poem, "punching eyebrows" became a famous saying, and "punching eyebrows" and "bowing their heads" vividly described two completely different attitudes of revolutionary soldiers towards the enemy and the people. These two sentences are not only meaningful but also vivid. Comrade Guo Moruo praised this couplet in the preface to Lu Xun's Poems: "Although there are only fourteen words, they clearly stipulate each other's power of life and death with love and hate; Show the spirit of unity and struggle. This is really unprecedented, and there is no one after it. " The origin of "a thousand fingers" comes from Wang Jiachuan in the Han Dynasty: "There is a saying that' a thousand fingers die without illness'." "The' thousand people' here, that is, the' thousand people', refers to the masses. However, Lu Xun said in "To Li" on February 4, 193 1, "Fortunately, there is nothing to do today, so you can let go of your thoughts. However, after three complaints, the virtuous mother became suspicious. As thousands of people have pointed out, they died without illness. Born in this life, I don't know what I will hear in the future. " Lu Xun gave a new meaning here. This "condemned prisoner" refers not to the masses, but to the enemy, and to all kinds of enemies. This is the same as "Little Amy" in the untitled "Picking Xiangling". "Little Amy" refers to a large number of enemies, which is the same as the "Thousand Commandments". Therefore, cold's criticism of "a thousand fingers" is not the only finger that cold accuses the masses, but the guidance of cold to many enemies. Chairman Mao's statement that "a thousand fingers here are the enemy" is very correct.

There are still some differences in the interpretation of self-mockery, which can be discussed.

Secondly, the explanation of the last couplet "hiding in a small building into a unified whole, giving consideration to Xia Chunqiu in winter". One said, "The last two sentences are ironic to those who only care about their own comfort and don't ask politics." Second, irony 1932 The Kuomintang reactionaries moved to Luoyang during the December 28th Incident, and did not move back to Nanjing until June 5438+02. The author wrote this poem. Hiding in the Small Building once again expresses Lu Xun's thought of "fighting in the trenches". The' small building' is the fortification of the bunker and the trench at the front. Hiding in the small building, taking the opportunity to attack, is to better preserve themselves, attack the enemy and destroy the enemy. "Fourth, to say' to be unified' means to be unified by yourself and to be tit-for-tat with the Chiang family dynasty. Although the' small building' is small, as an outpost of the struggle against the enemy, it is linked to the entire proletarian revolutionary struggle. "

Let's take a look at the previous "Laugh and Laugh", and what is said in the later part. Dong Fangshuo said, "When you don't need it, you don't have an apprentice, but you live alone"; What Yang Xiong said is "a house that is lonely and defends morality"; Ban Gu said, "Think carefully what you want and keep your destiny." . Are satisfied with loneliness and self-control, rather than satirizing others. It is not appropriate for people who are sarcastic but don't ask politics. It is mainly the enemy who should be satirized, but for those who don't ask politics, it is an education problem, not irony. Lu Xun's Hiding in a Small Building is content with loneliness, but there are similarities in form. Of course, their spirits are totally different. The former is to retreat, and the latter is to fight.

How to fight "hiding in a small building"? Is it a trench war with a small building as the trench? We only know that when the enemy enters the city for street fighting, they hide in the small building and attack the enemy under the cover of the small building. Lu Xun opposed cultural "encirclement and suppression". How can he regard this small building as a trench? To oppose cultural "encirclement and suppression", we must take newspapers and periodicals as the fighting position to attack the enemy. If you leave the fighting position of newspapers and periodicals, how can you attack the enemy even if you hide in a small building? Lu Xun's trench warfare is to confuse the enemy with various pseudonyms when he writes about the war, and to blind the enemy's eyes with various ingenious artistic techniques when he writes about the war, so as to cover himself and attack the enemy, instead of "hiding in a small building" to save himself and attack the enemy. Third, I'm afraid it's not realistic. The fourth theory holds that "hiding in a small building" means holding one's ground, and "unification" is linked to the whole revolutionary struggle of the proletariat. However, the original sentence said that "hiding in a small building" has become unity, that is, hiding in a small building has become unity, not based on a small building and then linked with a revolutionary base area. Just because hiding in a small building has become a unified country, it corresponds to "caring about winter Xia Chunqiu". No matter what the external political climate is, we should care! Which means it doesn't matter. If this small building is linked with the whole proletarian revolutionary struggle, we must pay close attention to the external political climate. How can you ignore it? So the four theories can't help asking too many questions.

So what exactly do these two sentences mean? Under the persecution of reactionaries, Lu Xun often fled, so hiding in a small building became my unified country, no matter what changes in the political climate outside him. This is "self-mockery", but it is not limited to self-mockery. It is also an irony that Kuomintang reactionaries only know how to avoid it, no matter how endangered the motherland is. These two sentences are both "self-mockery" and a fierce attack on the enemy, which shows that "self-mockery" is a revolutionary battle. These two sentences have a strong cooperation with the couplets of "looking at each other coldly"

[Edit this paragraph] 3. Self-mockery art

Koreans laugh at themselves and say, "In Korea, there are many people who sell golf, but few people really play golf."

Americans laugh at themselves and say, "In the United States, there are many people who help basketball stars sue, but few people can really play basketball."

The fans said: "In China, there are many fortune tellers for the China football team, but few people can really play football."

Humor has always been called the language art that only smart people can master, and self-mockery is also called the highest realm of humor. It can be seen that those who can laugh at themselves must be the wise among the wise and the master among the masters. Self-mockery is a skill that people who lack self-confidence dare not use, because it requires you to scold yourself. In other words, we should "tease" our own mistakes, shortcomings, and even physical defects, instead of hiding and avoiding those ugliness and shame, but enlarge, exaggerate and analyze them, and then skillfully extend and excuse them to get a smile. Without an open-minded, optimistic, detached and ridiculous mentality and mind, it is impossible. It is conceivable that self-righteous, calculating and stingy people are hard to compare. It is safest to laugh at yourself without hurting anyone. You can use it to enliven the conversation atmosphere and eliminate tension; Seek the steps in embarrassment and save face; Get the human touch in public; Under special circumstances, innuendo, stabbing an unreasonable villain.

3. 1 tickle yourself and laugh at yourself

In interpersonal communication, when people feel ashamed and embarrassed, using self-mockery to deal with difficulties can not only easily find steps, but also produce humorous effects. Therefore, it is a clever way to laugh at yourself, tickle yourself a few times and laugh first.

Legend has it that there was a stone bachelor in ancient times who accidentally fell to the ground riding a donkey, and most people would be at a loss. But Shi Bachelor stood up unhurriedly and said, "I am a Shi Bachelor, but if I were a tile, wouldn't I break into pieces?" A punch line made the people present laugh, and naturally this stone learning also relieved the embarrassment in laughter. By analogy, a fat man fell down and said, "If this body of meat is not supporting you, why don't you break the bone?" If you change to a thin man, you can say, "If it weren't for your light weight, this fall would be a meat pie!" "The author experienced such a thing: the wife of a short scholar laughed at her husband's short stature, and the scholar smiled and said," I think it's better to be short. If I am not1.57m, can I still write now? "If it weren't for my short stature and great strength, would you win every battle? If I am not short, can you say that I am too short? " When these words were finished, the audience was amazed.

It can be seen that it is easy to laugh at one of your own shortcomings when you laugh at yourself. But with this tolerance and courage, others will not let you laugh alone, but will usually laugh with you.

After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, Zhang Daqian returned to his hometown in Sichuan from Shanghai. Before he left, his friends gave him a farewell dinner and invited Mei Lanfang and others to accompany him. The banquet began, and everyone asked Zhang Daqian to sit first. Zhang said: "Mr. Mei is a gentleman and should sit at the top. I am a villain and should accompany the last seat. " Mei Lanfang and others don't understand its meaning. Zhang Daqian explained: "Isn't there a saying that' a gentleman speaks, a villain does it'?" Teacher Mei's singing is lip service, while my painting is hands-on. I should let Mr Mei Qing sit down first. "All the guests smiled and asked them to sit side by side in the first seat. Zhang Daqian laughed at himself as a villain, as if he were laughing at himself. But "the meaning of drunkenness is not wine" not only shows Zhang Daqian's open mind, but also creates a relaxed and harmonious conversation atmosphere.

Someone wants to go abroad for further study. His wife said half jokingly, "You may see other women when you go to that world of flowers!" " "He said with a smile," Look at my face: I have a flat face and round legs. I'm afraid I can't lift my head when I stand on the road! "A word amused his wife. Everyone is afraid to mention his appearance defects, but this husband can accept his birth defects and doesn't care about exposing ugliness. This self-mockery reflects the modality of sugar and wine and the wisdom of life. Isn't it better than solemnly swearing to your wife that you will never have sex? At this time, he must become beautiful and lovely in the eyes of his wife.

In social interaction, when you are in an awkward position, self-mockery can often help you get out of the predicament with dignity. At a reception held by a club, the waiter accidentally spilled beer on a guest's shiny bald head while pouring wine. The waiter stunned the audience. The guest smiled and said, "Brother, do you think this treatment will be effective?" The people present laughed, and the embarrassing situation was immediately broken. With the help of self-mockery, the guests not only showed their generosity, but also maintained their self-esteem and eliminated their sense of shame.

It can be seen that timely and moderate self-mockery is a good accomplishment and a communication skill full of face power. Self-mockery can create a relaxed and harmonious conversation atmosphere, make yourself live easily, make people feel your cuteness and humanity, and sometimes maintain face more effectively and establish a new psychological balance.

3.2 Public figures need to laugh at themselves more.

In interpersonal communication, high-ranking people or celebrities are prone to feel arrogant when interacting with others. Maybe it's because others are too nervous and stressed, or maybe these people haven't got the hang of getting along with ordinary people. Generally speaking, making fun of yourself can relieve the pressure of others and make ordinary people feel human, just like ordinary people, thus making people feel very comfortable.

There are many such examples, and some crosstalk performers, comedians or program hosts often win the praise of the audience. There are many such people in life. Although a teacher is only in his forties, most of his hair is bald, revealing a "barren land". Students used to call him a bald teacher behind his back. Later, he simply explained to his classmates the reasons for baldness due to illness. Finally, he added this self-mockery: "It's good to lose all my hair. At least the lights in the classroom will be much brighter when I am in class." The students smiled in a friendly way, and no one called him the bald teacher anymore.

Of course, self-mockery is not self-abuse, not making a fool of yourself. We should be careful here.

Try to be personalized and vivid, and learn to laugh at yourself appropriately, which can often make your speech interesting. The power of humor can identify with humorous things. Therefore, a truly great person will laugh at himself and encourage others to laugh with him. They give and get by sharing human nature with others, and you can do it!

President Lincoln also made fun of himself, especially his appearance. Once he started his communication with others with such a short story:

"Sometimes I feel like an ugly person, walking in the forest and meeting an old woman. The old woman said, "You are the ugliest person I have ever seen. I can't help it The ugly man replied. "No, I don't think so," said the old woman. "At least you can stay at home! "'

Woody Allen, a humorous writer, actor and director, said, "I was ugly when I was a child. "I didn't have this face until I grew up."

Laughing at your looks or things you do that are not very beautiful will make you more human. If you happen to be handsome or beautiful, try your other shortcomings. If you really don't have any shortcomings, make up one, and it's usually not difficult to find them. The coach of a college football team was asked about a star player. The coach said, "He is a senior and a good player. But there is one drawback, that is, he is already a senior. "

If your characteristics, abilities or achievements may make others jealous or even afraid, try to change these bad views. For example, you can say a quip: "No one in the world is perfect, and I am the best example." Laughing with others in a self-deprecating way will help others like you, respect you and even admire you, because the power of your humor proves that you are human.

"I like you" leads to "I know you" and then leads to "I believe you". So, your ultimate goal is trust. When others trust you, you can influence them and let them push themselves to develop their potential. This is also the ultimate goal of everyone when interacting with others and being positive.

In fact, whether you are a big shot or a small shot, self-mockery can make you red. Great people can gain a good reputation by laughing at themselves, but small people can have fun from it and even become comedians overnight.

3.3 people don't laugh at themselves and seem stingy.

Openness is an important quality contained in humor.

Everything is optimistic, even if you are in prison, you can see hope, instead of moping and being sad all day. Your precious thinking mode is' roll with the punches', not haggling over every ounce and being too serious; Think about your own shortcomings and incompetence, and often laugh at yourself, instead of being the best in the world and boasting blindly. This is open-minded.

Openness often means detachment, but it has not developed to nothingness, so it is still a positive factor and a manifestation of good human nature.

(China people's soft humor) recorded such a thing: In the 1960s, a film director went to live in rural Sichuan. When it rained at noon, he saw a hut where he could hide, so he broke into the house and ran out when he met an old couple making out in bed. He was embarrassed and uncertain whether to stay. I don't want the old man to go out and invite him warmly. He smiled and explained, "There is nothing to do in rainy days." Sister also interjected: "It also saves you from being hungry."

There is a story in Selected Works of Xiao Ya: A man bragged about his wealth to his guests: "My family has everything." He held out two fingers and said, "All that is missing is the sun and the moon in the sky." Before he finished speaking, the servant at home came out and said, "The kitchen has run out of firewood." The man stretched out his finger and said, "There is no sun, moon and firewood."

The protagonists in the above two kinds of humor make fun of their own embarrassment and predicament, so that they can get rid of the embarrassing situation intelligently and show an open-minded manner. Let's imagine, what else can they do?

Standing outside yourself and appreciating your own trauma can produce happiness for a period of time. A man named Heywood Broth once invested his 40-year savings in the stock market and lost all in the 1929 crisis. Hearing the news, his reaction was not to cry and shout, but to say, "Come on, go." It was lost overnight, and we can't help saying "walk fast", but is it really "come fast"? No, we know that's his 40-year savings. Obviously, he jumped out of his own disaster and laughed at himself.

There is a story in Seven Words Record: Liu Zhuo and his cousin Liu Xuan are both very knowledgeable, but they were arrested for breaking the law. County officials didn't know they were university experts, so they were all handcuffed. Liu Zhuo said: "Sitting in the cangue all day, I just can't go home." Liu Xuan said; "I also sit at home all day, but I don't see a woman."

Their self-mockery is more interesting and skillful than broth. The lonely and desolate life without family and wife doesn't seem serious. Like brothers, they laughed at their own tragedy and overcame it.

Narrow-minded, haggle over every ounce, stubborn, often open-minded, bold enemy, so it is often satirized in humor. Please see:

When Donald comes home from a day's holiday in the capital, he always complains that the rent of his room that night is as high as six pounds. His friend said, "Nothing. I believe it is quite enjoyable for you to visit there. " Donald said, "Where! I haven't seen anything good! Do you think I have to pay so much rent if I don't make full use of the room? "

Donald's gains and losses are clear at a glance. This is a bit like China writer Gao Xiaosheng's Chen Kesheng, who fainted in the city and was sent to a high-end hotel. At the checkout, the price was so high that he was surprised. He immediately went back to his room, sat down on Simmons and the sofa, jumped a few times and made full use of the room. Both Chen Kesheng and Donald have become the objects of ridicule by the author, which shows the importance of modesty.

Finally, it is important to point out that self-mockery should be detached, not bitter and humiliating.

Most scholars believe that laughing at their own shortcomings and stupidity is the highest level of humor. However, the emotions that accompany this ridicule are different. If we laugh at ourselves bitterly and think that we have made a stupid mistake and should be punished, then we will only feel humiliated. Because the underlying consciousness behind this attitude is to believe that we should be better than reality, and this attitude towards life is an obstacle to our detachment. If we laugh at ourselves with love, we can achieve some kind of amiable detachment. Because we feel stupid, but we don't care about our own shadows.

Ah!
