World Laughter Day

[TheresaV]

Hi everyone,

Yesterday was World Laughter Day! 

And whilst some of you might be very familiar with their ways around the community, finding themselves more than often in the off-topic area and sharing a thought, ideas or some giggles, we have made a short list of threads for everyone who wants to join the fun and have a laugh 

As the O2 Community is an incredibly active bunch (you might have noticed), there is a lot to catch up on everyday, so when you are looking for something new, it’s always worth checking the Unread Posts tab on the top right of the community window. As a fairly new addition to the team, I still sometimes find myself having to catch up with the fun that is the off-topic area and therefore didn’t want anyone of you to miss out

What made me happy today...  by @ComaChameleon is a lovely thread to share little bits that brought a smile to your face today. And if you don’t have anything to share, just read through the thread and the smile will come naturally! 

Laugh for Wednesday by @Bambino  will surely make you laugh one way or another, and is therefore the perfect thread for World Laughter Day. Do you know a thing that always makes you laugh? Share it here! 

Word Association..... by @MI5  is probably one of the longest-running threads of this community and is as popular as ever! And even though our members have said they will keep it clean, one or the other sometimes has to be sent to The Naughty Step.

Last but not least, The Virtual Lounge started by our Wispared7 in 2014 here and continued by @blissgirl in 2017. Whoever has been to a real life lounge knows what this will be about. General chat, catching up with other members and sharing a laugh or two is all part of the by now almost 1000-page long thread. 

And that’s just a small selection of what you can find here, so don’t be shy, register (if you haven’t already) and join in with the fun!

And as it’s World Laughter Day, I want you to leave your best joke in the comments. Ready, steady, go!

This is remarkable  @pgn 

what is this made of?

FLIP FLOPS   😁

Looks like Margo's well into the swing of things at B&Q, @Anonymous 😳😇

As the days shorten, this one comes to mind:

Wife texts husband one particularly frosty morning: "Windows frozen, won't open".

Husband replies: "Slowly pour some lukewarm water over it, then gently tap edges with hammer".

10 minutes later, he receives this reply: "Computer really messed up now!".

💥

The French inventor of said footwear, M Philippe Pheloppe, was amazed at that, @TallTrees 😆

[TallTrees]

Great name you found there  @pgn

Superb, @TallTrees.

I remember paying to get a similar thing, printed on wide computer printout paper, in the Science Museum years ago - printed using different characters.
