How about a laugh, (hopefully)

Posted by Leonard @jakedduck1, Dec 31, 2018

I believe laughter is the best medicine. Laughter has actually been scientifically proven to help people with depression issues.
Let’s give it a try so we can all get happy and feel better. Many Epilepsy forums I’ve been on had joke sections. I was probably the biggest joke of all since I didn’t get a lot of the jokes. They said the jokes couldn’t be above 4th grade level for me to understand them so my jokes may be rather simplistic but let’s give it a try.
Have a lovely day everyone,
Jake

How many men does it take to change a roll of toilet paper?

Nobody knows. It has never happened.

Hi all,
I have enjoyed the humor shared in this discussion.
Recently however, I have removed a couple of posts. A pillar of Mayo Clinic Connect's community is respect and inclusivity. Humor shared here should never single out a specific group of people, be it by ethnicity, race, hair color, size, profession, faith or anything else.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Hello all

I just saw 200 rabbits walking backwards.

It was a receding hare line.

@2011panc, How about setting a timer??? Or tellin' him you like things "raw"? Wouldn't want to discourage the cooking help either but it always amazes me how many people overcook things until they either turn to mush or leather. Smiles

@fiesty76 I thank you sincerely for your suggestions. Timers don't work. Raw shrimp needs no more than 3 minutes, a timeframe he cannot compute. We always eat rubber tires. Too late to tell him I like things "raw" when we have been together over 30 years. He believes that if 10 is good, 15 is even better. All pizza and lasagna has burnt edges. Scrambled eggs become crumbs. He doesn't like to "attend" to his cooking. He likes "set it and forget it". The only thing he does not overcook is steaks. The juice is always bloody. If we lived in another time I would hire a cook and a maid!

@2011panc, Oh, how I hear you! lol Reminds me of the first time I went for a massage. Therapist said: "Tell me when I go too deep". Silly me thought "deeper has to be better"...I could hardly walk the next few days!! 30 yrs wed?? Congrats on that! You know our tastes change as we age; could you tell him that "raw" now makes food easier to swallow????

@fiesty76 I would try the "raw" food trick, except he was there when I was instructed not to eat rare meats. Being immunocompromised I no longer take as many risks. I just keep slipping him recipes adjusted to his cooking style. Sometimes it works out. And truly, I am grateful that I do not need to cook all the time anymore.
