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?

To Be 8 again!

A man was sitting on the edge of the bed, watching his wife, who was looking at herself in the mirror. Since her birthday was not far off he asked what she'd like to have for her birthday.

'I'd like to be eight again', she replied, still looking in the mirror.

On the morning of her Birthday, he arose early, made her a nice big bowl of Coco Pops, and then took her to Adventure World theme park. What a day! He put her on every ride in the park; the Death Slide, the Wall of Fear, the Screaming Roller Coaster, everything there was.

Five hours later they staggered out of the theme park. Her head was reeling and her stomach felt upside down. He then took her to a McDonald's where he ordered her a Happy Meal with extra fries and a chocolate shake.

Then it was off to a movie, popcorn, a soda pop, and her favourite candy, M&M's. What a fabulous adventure!

Finally, she staggered home with her husband and collapsed into bed completely exhausted.

The husband leaned over his wife with a big loving smile and asked, 'Well Dear, how was it being eight again?

Her eyes slowly opened and her expression suddenly changed, as the day's activities began to make sense.

And she blurted out .... 'I meant my dress size'!

Hi @Mellysmellyelly

Glad to meet you.

No, I'm still unemployed.

Since past employer used Covid as an excuse to make Redundant (Dismiss) 70 employees all at once (same day), via email.

Being unemployed has been extra socially isolating - worse than any of last year's Restrictions, or Lockdowns.

I like to post Funny or Inspiring Quotes & Pictures - To Lighten my Mood & Give me a Boost.

I like to share them, to give some "Fun & Frivolity" to others as well.

Otherwise, I find Text-Based Communication very challenging (so I often cannot write much).

Because I have daily fatigue (chronic) & Sleep Apnea, Complex PTSD (also causes fatigue), Irritable Bowel Syndrome, Diverticular Disease - & my Dyslexia starts playing up, when I'm tired (start mixing up letters & words).

Thanks for saying hello.

I hope you are having a good day.

Adge
