Laughter

I hereby declare that the most effective drug of the 21st century is humor. That’s right. Which girl have you known that doesn’t list humor as one of the top qualities they look for in a guy? Which friend have you known that hasn’t shed a tear because of humor? Smiles are omnipotent and laughter is contagious. They say that the night is darkest just before the dawn but why not let humor be a catalyst of the hour-hand. I’ve learned that in times of speechlessness – whether it’s a pure recognition of pain/suffering or it’s a dumbfounded moment of surrealism – it is always best if you could dissolve sorrow, in some way, with laughter. Distressed or not, humor should become like a daily vitamin to us all. Skies are blue and lions are furry because of humor. Without it, who would now about Chaplin’s little stache and Chapelle’s short skits? Ladies and gentlemen, just do it. Tell a joke a day, keep the fuckin doctors away.

“A chicken and an egg are lying in bed. The chicken is leaning against the headboard smoking a cigarette with a satisfied smile on its face. The egg, looking a bit ticked off, grabs the sheet rolls over and says, “… well, I guess we finally answered THAT question!”

Memorize jokes, spread laughter (not STDs)!
