One thing I tend to do is to think in big pictures. When people are being grossed out by a specific event, I marvel at how it relates and contributes to the rest of society.
For example, let's look at the classic ice cream sundae. Even when I was a kid, I never understood the point of those colorful sprinkles that everybody always put on their sundae. Sure they were colorful. Sure it made your dessert extra pretty. However, looking at the bigger picture; no matter how many sprinkles you put on that sundae, the sundae won't get any tastier, it won't get any less fattening, and you will still regret eating it afterward.
In short, it's still a sundae. Yum!
