Some of us do get entertained the funny way. Most find these amusement through comedy shows on television and on stage as live performers like stand-up comedian do their acts. This is maybe why late night show are a hit because of how they put humor on just about everything.

Comedians work their humor in many different ways but some completely forgets the timing and sensitivity on some of the issues they joke about. The recent earthquake - tsunami disaster tandem that has struck Japan is really no joke. It left the country with thousands of deaths and missing, damage to vital infrastructures that experts say may take 5 years to rebuilt. The intensity of the disaster were more intensified as nuclear power plant went near meltdown at worst. This issue is what two jokers took out their inspiration for what they though would turn out funny and humorous about the serious series of events.

One is a US student where reports say gave out "appalling" anti-Asian and anti-Japanese rant that went viral on YouTube. She is a Political Science undergraduate of the University of California in L.A. but now has decided to quite her studies because the viral video's popularity gave her and her family to be harassed to the point of receiving death threats and be ostracized.

The YouTube clip was about how the Asian people at UCLA produces so much noise in their quiet library for talking on their cellphones to check the situation back in Japan.

Her 3-minute wonder was supposed to be funny but unfortunately it offended more that those who laugh about it. She said, "In America, we do not talk on our cell phones in the library", and added: "If you're gonna come to UCLA, then use the American manners." She added: "I mean, I know, that sounds horrible. I feel sorry for all the people affected by the tsunami. But if you're going to go call your address book, like you might as well go outside, because, if something is wrong, you might really freak out and you're in the library, and everybody is quiet."
