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

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.”

Yeah, I bought a house in that new subdivision, Reality Estates. It's great! They named all the streets after real-life situations, instead of phony stuff like "Autumn Sunrise Place".

They've got big plans for this subdivision, you know. They want to build a mixed-use area. In fact, they're planning to build restaurants and even a hotel. They've got a great spot for it. It's down at the end of Lonely Street. There's no name for the hotel yet, but I'm sure they'll think of something.

Want to come to my housewarming party? Here's how to get there.
First, you'll enter the development by making a left on Envy Street.
Straight ahead two blocks until you come to Road to Ruin. Make a right.
Keep going down the Road to Ruin, through the part where all the other "R" streets are. Regret Lane, Refinance Avenue, Remorse Way, and Repossession Road.

Just keep driving until you see a cul de sac on your left. Turn there. That's my street, Divorce Court. I'm the third house on the right.

If you miss that turn, don't worry. Most everything in Reality Estates leads to Divorce Court.

See you there Saturday. About 8. Bring some liquor, wouldya? Thanks.

Sounds nice, Scott!

I sold my house and moved into The Hotel California: plenty of room, although a somewhat limited wine selection. I figure it's the last place I'll be living at.

Why did Santa end up stuck in a chimney last Christmas?

He forgot to write an escape Claus into his delivery contract.

I agree, Jung is much more down-to-earth.

His "Afternoon of Life" stands out in stark contrast to what we see today -- not just an obsession with youth, but an obsession with childish behavior by adults. (Look how popular man-child movies are; I find them intolerable.)

It's like the song "I Won't Grow Up" from Peter Pan is the new national anthem.

The phrase I heard in my youth about maturity was "Learn, Earn, Return" -- and now that I'm in the last of those stages myself, I feel a definite calling to share my experiences with others.

But people aren't exactly champing at the bit to listen. After all, what could some disabled old geezer possibly have to say?

I, too, find Jung somewhat more down to Earth than Nietzsche.

But geese, during their molting season, have much more down-to-Earth dispositions than either one of them.

Good one!

Reminds me of Dorothy Parker's famous quote:

"If all the coeds attending the Yale prom were laid end-to-end, I wouldn't be at all surprised."
