EPTOtherwise, if he's your best friend, then who gives a shit? As long as he never does anything serious, like jacks your shit and sells it on ebay or nuts on your sheets or something...

I mean, just learn to brush off some of the stupid things people do and I think that's a good way to do it. Sometimes you have to pick your battles, and if he's a really good friend, don't be an ass because he makes terrible, corny jokes. | ||

he does that stuff to get attention and cuz he thinks other people think hes funny, so if you just dont react to his jokes, he'll eventually stop. even if he doesnt stop doing them, not laughing at unfunny jokes is better than laughing at them. | ||

Just act like an adult, meaning you are busy and don't have time for foolishness. When he does stuff instead of laughing say "ok", "yea", "thanks", or just look at him. btw have you noticed what happens to people who make stupid posts? they are either completely ignored or flamed. | ||

Or you can just be honest about your feelings whenever it comes up. I.E you're with your GF, she has been raped in the past, and he proceeds to say "sensitivity to abusive violence and sexual crudeness is for pussies" you have every right to tell him he is an ass, and acting like he doesn't care about people's opinions all the while constantly seeking their attention, 'is for pussies'. | ||

And thanks for comments all. Actually I think I am exaggerating the negativity of this that he's doing; I've been sort of out of it for a few months given some crappy social conditions in my own life (esp. that I lack girls, yeah  ), and probably a bit angry because things are working for him. But it remains that he sometimes makes jokes that I should not laugh at, next time I'll just say "okay" like you suggested. | ||
