How to respond confidently when someone laughs at you?

Hi everyone, How do you respond confidently when someone laughs at you? I have learnt that how we respond to people laughing at us, has an impact of people's impression and opinion of us. Thank you. I will select a best answer soon.

1. by peeing on them.
2. You can smile, nod, and say "Your Welcome". Or simply state "Glad I can make your day."
3. Laugh with them like it doesn't even affect you.
4. If you fix up your inner response to someone laughing at you, then you won't have any trouble responding outwardly. Your self-esteem is what protects you from feeling bad about yourself. Be aware of your inner thoughts so that you can correct over-reaction to perceived criticism and see things in perspective. A sense of humor is the best way to defuse an embarrassing situation. People are laughing at you. So you laugh as well
5. When they laugh, ask them this, " does someones misfortune make you laugh?". Or say, "Glad to make you laugh" then smile, then turn away in disapproval with a nod of your head. ***Or just come slightly close to him/ her and stare directly into their eyes with a neutral look. Keep staring till they stop. This is a good one it makes them feel insecure and dumb. Staring into their face is one you can use when ever someone says something stupid to you. You will find that they no longer can make eye contact with you out of discomfort.***
6. I think we need more info here. It depends on what they are laughing at. If you wear a clown suit to work and someone laughs, you would be happy. If you almost trip, and someone laughs, you can join in and look like a good sport and very likeable, too! If someone laughs at you because you are in a wheelchair, well, they should be punched, but we cannot do that. In the third case, ignoring them is best. :)
7. People laugh at me all the time I am nearly always the butt of people's jokes but I kinda like it! lol I just laugh along with it and kind of agree with what they are saying then say something funny about them too. But there is another kind of "laughing at someone" when they really are just trying to hurt your feelings, in which case I laugh back but a kind of pitying laugh and walk away. Or just say "aw bless your trying to be funny...never mind eh?" in a sarcastic way. Anything quick witted would be good too
8. mainly laugh with them or poke fun of your self it shows you have a sence of humor ... and your not allways so serious.
9. If it was really funny, I would laugh at myself and acknowledge "That is funny." You gotta be able to laugh at yourself and realize that you are a good person who sometimes does silly things. If it is a mean-spirited laugh, then I would just try to ignore their laugh and them. No need in giving them more attention. If you feel that something has to be said, I would just say "That should not amuse you."
