How can we brighten our days with laughter? What are your jokes, thoughts, ideas?
This thread is dedciated to making each other laugh
There's an old saying, 'laughter can be the best medicine'. I myself enjoy a good chuckle from the bottom of my belly that brings me close to tears. It does wonders for my well-being.
Some things that make me laugh are:
- Watching stand up comedy such as Die Roten Punkte, Flight of the Concords and Stand Up for Mental Health (if you don't mind black humour)
- Spending time with funny people - my niece and nephew are a barrel of laughs. It's great to see the world through their eyes.
- Watching funning movies and shows (The show 'Friends' and New Zealand movie 'Boy' are old favourites)

An Irish ghost story
John Bradford, a Dublin University student, was on the side of the road hitch-hiking on a very dark night and in the midst of a big storm.
The night was rolling on and no car went by. The storm was so strong he could hardly see a few feet ahead of him.
Suddenly, he saw a car slowly coming towards him and stopped. John, desperate for shelter and without thinking about it, got into the car and closed the door ... only to realise there was nobody behind the wheel and the engine wasn't running.
The car started moving slowly. John looked at the road ahead and saw a curve approaching. Scared, he started to pray, begging for his life. Then, just before the car hit the curve, a hand appeared out of nowhere through the window, and turned the wheel. John, paralysed with terror, watched as the hand came through the window, but never touched or harmed him.
Shortly thereafter, John saw the lights of a pub appear down the road, so, gathering strength, he jumped out of the car and ran to it... Wet and out of breath, he rushed inside and started telling everybody about the horrible experience he had just had.
A silence enveloped the pub when everybody realised he was crying ... and wasn't drunk.
Suddenly, the door opened, and two other people walked in from the dark and stormy night. They, like John, were also soaked and out of breath. Looking around, and seeing John Bradford sobbing at the bar, one said to the other..
‘Look Paddy ... there's that idiot that got in the car while we were pushing it!'

Haha this was me this afternoon,
Had left the roof open a crack as I had bait in the car to go fishing after a meeting I had and didn't want the fish smell through the car. Well a big storm came over while I was in the meeting so instead of fish smell through the car I had water all through the car.
