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

When are sunbathing birds like ice cream?

When they're baskin' robins.

(I first told that when I was in high school, fifty years ago. And I wondered why I was unpopular...)

This season serve eggs Benedict on a hubcap because there's no plate like chrome for the holidays.

"Hollandaise," methinks.

Thanks to @scottrl for bringing the typo to my attention. The joke should have read: This season serve eggs Benedict on a hubcap because there's no plate like chrome for the Hollandaise.

A local fellow musician died a few years ago and donated her body to Duke University.
As her daughter remarked in her mother's obituary, "After years of trying, Mom finally got in to medical school."

At the risk of being thought of as a nitpicker regarding jokes and laughter in this thread, it's JMHO that not only was Nietzsche a madman, his sayings/writings were definitely un-funny. I admit that nihilism has a certain attraction for me but I find absolutely no humor in it and Nietzsche was certainly no joke. Please don't blast me for my dissent or for not including a joke or pun, etc., in a laughter thread. Each to his own?

Hi Kamama,

Hi Kamama,

Hope you're feeling better.

I'm not Nietzche's biggest fan, either.

I prefer the Egyptian Nile-ists.

No joke here in this post, but it might be amusing... 🙂

"Never tell the truth to people who are not worthy of it."- Mark Twain
{Think of this insight the next time someone asks you how you are feeling-- haha}

"Nothing so needs reforming as other people's habits."-
Twain, again

"Nihilism- an interesting place to visit but I wouldn't want to live there." - ME
Imagine asking neighbor Nietzche to borrow a cup of sugar. He might give you salt instead...

Nietzeche's bitterness with the universe started when he had to learn to spell his last name. Who wouldn't be unhappy and confused and frustrated with a spelling like that to learn and to live with? Poor fella.

Have a nice day, everybody!

Nietzche wasn't into darts: He didn't see the point.

It looks like snow will be delayed this year in my neck of the woods. I love snow, so I'm bringing you these *frosty* jokes.

What do snowmen eat for dessert?
Ice crispies.

What is it called when a snowman has a temper tantrum?
A meltdown.

What do you get when you cross a snowman with a vampire?
Frostbite.

I was going to tell a joke about Frosty and snowballs but decided against it.

Hope all is going well with you. I too have hit a “little bump-in-the-road” but all is well on the other side. I applaud your position and stand with you. Let’s get back to fun…
My seasonal favorite:
One night a Viking named Rudolph the Red, was looking out the window and he said “it’s going to rain.”
His wife asked “how do you know? “
“Because Rudolph the Red knows rain, dear.”
