The situation
Someone in your group makes a joke about another kid — the kind that's a bit too sharp, that lands on something the kid can't help. Everyone laughs. You don't, really. It wasn't funny to you; it just felt mean. The kid who made it notices your straight face and says, "What? It was a joke. Lighten up." Now the group's attention has swung to you. Laughing along would smooth everything over instantly. But you'd be laughing at something you didn't think was okay, and the kid the joke was about might be close enough to see.
