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!

2 cows are grazing in a field
1 cow says to the other: are you worried about mad cow disease?
Other cow replies: why should I be I'm a helicopter : BOOM BOOM

Hi @TheresaV
Just a small correction.
The Virtual Lounge was in fact started by Wispared7 in 2014 HERE
At that time we had a manager who thought it was a good idea to split long threads (for a reason none of us understood).
The Virtual Lounge was 'continued' in 2017 and the first person to post was @blissgirl
The total length of both threads is 1700 pages.
Only fair to mention the correct author.
PS, I'll think of a joke later
Thanks for the correction @Cleoriff and sorry for getting this wrong! I will correct it in the original post

Great ones @Anonymous @TallTrees @Mi-Amigo @Anonymous @Bambino! You all made me have a little giggle this morning. Perfect way to start the day
I love this one:
When does a dad joke become a dad joke?
When it becomes apparent.

What do you call security guards at a Samsung store?
Guardians of the Galaxy.

Maybe we should make this into a World Laughter Week instead of Day @TallTrees
