Is it wrong to laugh?

Sometimes people are just different. And, sometimes people are so different that it's hard not to laugh, even though that's certainly the wrong thing to do. But what happens when those very strange and different people get themselves put on TV on one of the most watched shows in America? Is it wrong to laugh at them?

I just finished watching the tail end of American Idol and my goodness, they had some interesting people try out this year. I came away with this thought: I hope my friends and family would love me enough to tell me that I should most certainly NOT try out for this show, no matter how badly I wanted to.
