GakFace: to quote Lisa Simpson: to watch other people's hurt makes us laugh. Observe *throws shoe at Bart* *Marge starts laughing*
This is like a person jabbing and pulling pranks with the boss. And every person in the office is loving it just the same. And then once the boss uses his power to put him in place (which he is perfectly entitled to and isn't meant to be taken as an insult).
It's this sort of slap you can see, somewhat of a hurting, and for others that indeed can be funny in a smirking sort of way too.
But I doubt it is for you
