Laughter might not be able to solve all of our problems, but it does have the power to make us forget about them for awhile.
My point is that, even though there might be some regrettable content in this list, I’m still glad it happened. Humor is important, after all.
RELATED STORIES
“Woke up and discovered my wife moved our coat stand yesterday.”
I’ve had a few scares like this before, and that’s why I’m firmly in the anti-coat rack camp at this point. Give me hooks on the wall or a hamper on the floor, but no coat racks.
“Saw this woman getting a better view of the eclipse.”
On average, Earth is about 238,000 miles from the Moon and 93 million miles from the Sun at any given time. Thanks to this humble stepladder, this woman found a way to make herself two feet closer.
“This sign on a vending machine at my work.”
I love it when people clap back against a sign. I mean, the sign is an inanimate object that isn’t about to change its message, but the rebuttal is still heard loud and clear.
“This is how we announced our pregnancy to our friends and family.”
Too much Netflix and chill as a couple can lead to certain things, including…well, a big ol’ Prego right in front of you. Props to this couple for a truly original pregnancy announcement.
“Asked wife how the visit to the vet was going….”
On one hand, I feel bad for the stress that pets feel when they’re at the vet. On the other, I can’t stop myself from chuckling at the dumb things they’ll do once there.
“My sister: “You can do the half-marathon with me! Trust me, it’s not that bad.’ …”
Running half marathons is a good way to keep yourself healthy, but it’s also a good way to be miserable. It’s a real Catch-22 situation.
“My friend’s family Christmas card.”
If you’re going to get your pic taken with Santa, you may as well make it a pic to remember. This family has a dark aesthetic, but not so dark that they won’t let the Christmas spirit in.
“My 13 year old sister thinks she’s hilarious.”
This pic is a great example of why you should always tell people what you want for your birthday. Don’t make it a big ask or anything, but make it something more exciting than a ladle.
“Can you all confirm for my wife I’m not dumb and it could have happened to anyone?”
I can absolutely confirm that these things look way too delicious to not eat. What, are we supposed to read every label to confirm that the treat inside isn’t intended for dogs?
“He looks traumatized.”
Should you practice your wedding vows on your cat? It’s an age-old question, one with no correct answer. I think, though, in this situation, it didn’t turn out very well. I hope the actual vows worked out better.
“Legit sign post.”
Yes, yes, this sign is worth a chuckle for its allusions to cougars (the animals) and cougars (the mature women). But after the laughter, I have a serious question: are there actual big cats here that might kill me?
“Throwback to when my mom forgot to submit my senior baby ad for the yearbook and asked my dad to do it.”
If this dude’s mom didn’t want the yearbook tribute to turn into a roast, she shouldn’t have put her husband in charge of it.
“Good job, library!”
As we enter the winter months, this library reminds us of something that’s universally true: while you can’t do anything about the weather or the temperature, you can at least carry a book around with you if you want.
“I was tasked with clearing out the crawlspace, but then I found my old slot car track and progress haulted. A+ would clean again.”
Slot cars can’t steer and constantly go off the track, so they shouldn’t be as fun as they are. But they are indeed fun, and I totally get where OP is coming from here.
“Spiderman: Work From Home”
Working from home has its advantages and its disadvantages. Sure, you may never have wound up taking exercise breaks or using that little stationary bike under your desk. But you’re hardly alone. Just look at poor Spidey here.
“Well, duh.”
In the long-ago year of 1999, CGI wasn’t great, The Rock was just a wrestler and Brendan Fraser was still a bankable star. It seems so primitive, but sometimes I wish we could go back to that halcyon time.
“I got a long sleeve version of my favorite shirt.”
If having one arm is your brand, then I can’t imagine a better shirt to wear. I wonder if this guy got a discount. I mean, it’s a long-sleeved shirt, but he’s only using one of them.
“I get an email every time I get a package delivered to my apartment’s mailroom. It’s supposed to be a photo of the label, but there’s this one guy…”
I’m not sure whether I’d be delighted or unnerved to receive delivery notifications like this.
“This is what happens when the weather computer fails during my local news.”
If it looks stupid and it works, they say it isn’t stupid. Well, I suppose this isn’t stupid, but it certainly doesn’t look as good as it could.
“I’m pretty sure my mom will never again ask my help with putting away the nativity scene.”
If there’s one thing that moms love without reservation, it’s when their kids mercilessly troll them whenever they pitch in to help out around the house.
