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

GH, as in enough = F
O, as in women = I
TI, as in nation = SH

Hi Carolin love.

Shirley's using the pronunciations of a pair of letters in each of three words to have some fun.
In the word "enough", the letter pair "gh" is pronounced like the letter "f" (enuf).

Similarly, in "women", the letter "o" sounds like a soft "i" (wimin)

...and so on.

Welcome to the club!

My dishwasher is awful - it's already ruined 3 of my paper plates.

Me: Doc, I've been bitten by a wolf.

Doc: Where?

Me: No, a regular wolf.

What do you call an obese psychic? A four-chin teller.

My son has been playing with electrical cords and accidentally shocked himself.

So I'm going to ground him until he can conduct himself properly.

And it’s actually Carol in LV for Las Vegas! I am still in love with my husband, but the tag is something different. Thanks for noticing. I always wondered if people would think that’s what LV was and now I know.👍
