Somecommon synonyms of ridiculous are comical, comic, laughable, and ludicrous. While all these words mean "provoking laughter or mirth," ridiculous suggests extreme absurdity, foolishness, or contemptibility.

To be ridiculous is to be something highly incongruous or inferior, sometimes deliberately so to make people laugh or get their attention, and sometimes unintendedly so as to be considered laughable and earn or provoke ridicule and derision. It comes from the 1540s Latin "ridiculosus" meaning "laughable", from "ridiculus" meaning "that which excites laughter", and from "ridere" meaning "to laugh".[1] "Ridiculous" is an adjective describing "the ridiculous".


In common usage, "ridiculousness" is used as a synonym for absurdity or nonsense.[2][3] From a historical and technical viewpoint, "absurdity" is associated with argumentation and reasoning, "nonsense" with semantics and meaning, while "ridiculous" is most associated with laughter, superiority, deformity, and incongruity. Reductio ad absurdum is a valid method of argument, while reductio ad ridiculum is invalid. Argument by invective declaration of ridiculous is invalid, while arguments involving declarations of nonsense may summarize a cogent semantic problem with lack or meaning or ambiguity.


Historically, the ridiculous was central to initial theories of humor and laughter as first put forth by philosopher Thomas Hobbes. It is currently used in the theory of humor to trigger laughter, shock, parody, or satire. Reactions to the ridiculous have been studied in psychology for its effects on memory, attention, and attitude in social hierarchies. These studies have been applied to the theory of advertisement regarding attention, memory, and alleviation of preexisting negative attitudes toward products. The ridiculous is often contrasted with the sublime, one of extreme inferiority, the other of extreme superiority, and often one can suddenly move from one extreme state to the other.


The ridiculous often has extreme incongruity (things that are not thought to belong next to each other) or inferiority, e.g., "when something that was dignified is reduced to aridiculous position (here noting the element of the incongruous), so that laughteris most intense when we escape from a 'coerced solemnity'."[4][5] For Aristotle, we laugh at inferior or ugly individuals, because we feel a joy at being superior to them.[6] Socrates was reported by Plato as saying that the ridiculous was characterized by a display of self-ignorance.[7] Deformity was considered by some to be essential to the ridiculous.[8][9] Psychological theories of humor include the "incongruity theory" and the "superiority theory", the latter of which the philosopher Thomas Hobbes was an early proponent.[10][11][12] Hobbes claimed that laughter was either caused spontaneously, or by seeing a deformed thing to which one compares themselves and laugh as a form of self applause; "a sudden glory arising from sudden conception of some eminency in ourselves, by comparison of the infirmities of others."[9] The Right Reverend William Warburton, Lord Bishop of Gloucester said in the early 18th century that, "Nothing is ridiculous but what is deformed".[13] Using the ridiculous is a method in the theory of humor.[14]


Although common usage now considers "absurdity" to be synonymous with "ridiculousness", Hobbes discussed the two concepts as different, in that absurdity is viewed as having to do with invalid reasoning, as in Hobbes' Table of Absurdity, while ridiculousness has to do with laughter, superiority, ridicule, and deformity.


In Candide, Voltaire parodies Leibniz's argument for the existence of evil under a benign God using "ridiculous rationalizations of evil".[19] Leibniz claimed that God is constrained by logic, and created the best of all possible worlds. After being reduced from a "dignified" state to its opposite, the optimistic Dr. Pangloss (representing Leibniz) finds cause to consider his undignified position to be the best of all possible worlds, noting his own particular current happiness, which he argues could not have been attained without experiencing the atrocities in the previous narrative; his optimistic attitude is extremely incongruous with his experiences and extremely inferior undignified ultimate condition.[19]


In Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey, apelike humans and their behavior are juxtaposed next to streamlined advanced technology with a highly avant garde score by composer Gyrgy Ligeti; Ligeti also used ridiculous juxtaposition in his scores to create parody,[20] and this tool was frequently used by composer Peter Maxwell Davies.


Japanese Butoh uses both incongruity and deformity to create ridiculous dance performance and lifestyle; extreme movement methods that are highly incongruous with natural body movement in its dance and everyday lifestyle, as well as in its clothing, actions, costume and set design that is highly incongruous with societal norms, which often shock the audience or visitor, and are sometimes considered not only ridiculous, but incongruently "bizarre and beautiful" or "elegant and grotesque".[21][22]


The Theatre of the Ridiculous is a genre of performance that uses highly incongruous stage settings and incongruous costumes such as cross dressing to disturb or create shock in the audience.[23] It began in New York City in the 1960s.


Thomas Paine, writing in The Age of Reason in 1795, said The sublime and the ridiculous are often so nearly related, that it is difficult to class them separately. One step above the sublime, makes the ridiculous; and one step above the ridiculous, makes the sublime again.[27]


Napoleon, reflecting on the state of his existence following his retreat from Moscow in 1812, famously remarked to Polish ambassador D. G. De Pradt: Du sublime au ridicule il n'y a qu'un pas (There is only one step from the sublime to the ridiculous).[1][27][28][29]


Reduction to the ridiculous (Latin: "reductio ad ridiculum", also called "Appeal to ridicule", "appeal to mockery", or "the Horse Laugh") is a logical fallacy which presents the opponent's argument in a way that grossly misrepresents it and appears ridiculous next to it, often so misrepresentative as to create a straw man argument, rather than addressing the argument itself.[30] For example, in arguing against idealism, with its sophisticated arguments that the world was not real but only existed in the mind, philosopher Dr. Johnson famously kicked a stone.[30]


Arguments are often simply dismissed by calling them "ridiculous" as invective, without further argumentation.[30] Philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche often dismissed philosophical positions by calling them "ridiculous" without further argument given.[30]


The hours spent on Restorative Justice, Implicit Bias, and on and one and on, and then when I go to learn more about a tool that would ostensibly help improve and enable my ACTUAL teaching, I get this - RIDICULOUS. I'm expected to read a tech manual, a boring tech manual.


This is pointless. Reading this is BORING, it doesn't address my questions (please don't ask me what my questions are, really don't waste your time or mine), it doesn't provide an easy reference to use, in fact I'm not even sure how this is supposed to flow right after I start it.


Let's be clear, this training is horrible, I wouldn't call it "training", it's "Here, read this and see if you can get something out of this", it's not presented in a way a teacher would present a course, and let me tell you about your product, the thing you're supposedly "training" me on.


Quizzes in Canvas is CLUNKY, time consuming, and oh so VERY NOT user-friendly. I can't tell Quizzes to create a quiz with 20, numbered blank questions that I can then fill in - no, I have to create 20 individual questions, set the font style and size for each, the placement (whether right, center or left adjusted) for EACH individual question, and be careful that I'm following a correct sequence in the flow of my questions because while I can move my questions around within the quiz, moving them doesn't automatically re-number them so if I take #19 and decide to move it to the #2 slot, nearly every question has to be re-numbered by me, there's no automatic feature that sees what I did and then re-numbers on it's own.


I can go on, but this is pointless. And don't for a second think that I haven't used Quizzes in Canvas EXTENSIVELY. Go to Commons, put in my name, and see how many Quizzes I created (205 - wow, does that make me something more than a "Community Novice"? Badges are great for kids in elementary school, they don't mean quite the same thing for an experienced teacher), and they've ALL been a pain in the butt to make because of how not user-friendly this system is. Also, the search feature in Commons is not user-friendly, it simply pops up modules, doesn't show dates for when the module was created in the pop up after you search (you have to go into the individual modules to see what you're looking for), it makes more work for you then it's worth move than half the time.


Hi James, I understand exactly what you mean. That's the reason I joined this group, to make suggestions to enhance the product. The product has some nice features, but as you stated, some things can be improved.


I've done so many quizzes in Canvas, over 200, nearly all of them original, i.e. I built the quiz from start to finish. Some of the content may be taken from somewhere else, but the actual quiz is something I built. A few of the quizzes are downloaded from someone else, but even those I've gotten into them and added/subtracted to them so even those I feel by and large comfortable with saying that they're mine.


With that many quizzes, I can't tell you how much time was wasted having to build each individual question, setting the font size for every question. I don't use the font set by Canvas, it's too small, I always use 14, which me I have to individually set each question to 14, and I can go on. This is ridiculous (there's that word again), and it's an extraordinary time suck, and I can't begin to believe that this can't be done better on the part of Canvas, not with how I see things done in other places. When I first started using Canvas to build quizzes, which was during the pandemic, I figured these were part of some sort of growing pains, they had to get something out fast and they'd improve on it; they never did.
