Coping with embarrassment/humiliation

I've experienced a lot of embarrassment -and humiliation- in my short life, and I've found there are various ways to deal with it. How, gven the choices, do you handle it?
When you are embarrassed and/or humiliated, how do you cope with it?
Laugh about it, because nothing squelches it like humor!
Bite my lip and endure it, figuring that tomorrow's another day and it won't last
Brood darkly and hate myself for the experience, whether it was my own fault or not
Brood darkly and hate the responsible parties and plan revenge at the earlist opportunity
Forgive those responsible
Don't exact revenge, but never forgive or forget what they put you through
