What’s your funny favorite saying for tough times?
When things are tough, I try to laugh a little to boost my spirits. These are my favorite spirit-booster sayings, which I repeat as necessary:
“When the going gets tough, the tough go shopping.”
And “When you are going through he**, keep going.”

This isn't a saying but it is an entertaining short video I like to watch when I come face to face with tough times:

When the other shoe drops, I always say, "And there you have it..." or sometimes some great expletives that I can not put on this post 🙂
Thank you for the great video, so uplifting! Is this available on YouTube as I'd like to share it with others who I know would love it!
From my late mother:
"They said, 'Cheer up - things could be worse.' So I cheered up, and sure enough, things got worse."

3 ReactionsThe only other version of the video I could find was one posted by Mathieu Stern (the video photographer) on TikTok and available on YouTube. But it does not use the Survivor song for the soundtrack.
Oh well. PS the dancer is Yoann Bourgeois.
That dog wouldn’t hunt!
