How can we brighten our days with laughter? What are your jokes, thoughts, ideas?

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)

What about you?

I love puns. Especially when others join it to keep the topic going.

Any suggestions for a start? Who will add to the fun?

Sometimes I like to go to the hardware shop and run around with a screw-driver, yelling "Ladies and gentlemen, this is not a drill!"

Can someone hammer that?

I had a co-worker who used to wear elf shoes (with bells on the toes) at Christmas time. Seriously.

The socks are great!
I worked in a large primary school here in Queensland. The lady who wore the bells was loved by the kids, but they didn't have bells ringing all day! LOL. I suppose it was only for a few weeks a year ...
