He's more to be pitied than laughed at.
Irish Proverb
But the fact that some geniuses were laughed at does not imply that all who are laughed at are geniuses. They laughed at Columbus, they laughed at Fulton, they laughed at the Wright brothers. But they also laughed at Bozo the Clown.

It was surprising for a picture called Elf. It was actually edgy. I think the nice thing about the film is that my mother laughed, my kids laughed, my friends laughed, and usually when they call something a family movie, I think, "uh-oh! I'll have to suffer through it."

It's very funny, and we really laughed a lot while we were making it and I could always tell how happy the director was by how hard he laughed behind the monitor.

He always said it but I always laughed at him. It's like he says, 'When you're losing, everybody wants your head. And when you're winning, everybody wants to help.' He said a couple times, 'I'm done. This is it. I've had enough.' I just laughed at him and said, 'You know better than that. You'll be back next year.' He enjoys it way too much to call it quits. They'll have to run him out of there to get him out.

The good thing is I learned discipline when I started playing basketball. My (Liberty) teammates laughed at me when I first got there because I asked what time the team dinner was. They laughed and told me we were on our own.
Shameka Christon
He might talk a little loud, laugh a little too long or not be able the read the body language or even the tone of voice of a person, but it's not a big difficulty. If you call him on it, he will acknowledge it, say 'OK, you're right, I shouldn't have said that or laughed when I laughed.' This couldn't happen to a nicer kid.
Diane Maddock
I laughed him out of patience; and that night
I laughed him into patience: and next morn,
Ere the ninth hour, I drunk him to his bed.
William Shakespeare

I laughed when I saw it. My first thoughts were, 'What about Joe? Joe had done a hell of a job, too.' To congratulate the other manager and not congratulate your own after what he'd done this year, I laughed.
Mel Stottlemyre
If you set your heart upon philosophy, you must straightway prepare yourself to be laughed at and mocked by many who will say Behold a philosopher arisen among us! or How came you by that brow of scorn? But do you cherish no scorn, but hold to those things which seem to you the best, as one set by God in that place. Remember too, that if you abide in those ways, those who first mocked you, the same shall afterwards reverence you; but if you yield to them, you will be laughed at twice as much as before.

How much better a thing it is to be envied than to be pitied.

Nobody can tell what I suffer! But it is always so. Those who do not complain are never pitied.
