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!

Oblig joke:

The Beatles once sang “Love is all you need.”

I can tell you from experience this is not true.

If you own a budgie - they also require food and water.

FUN FUN FUNNY

An atheist was taking a walk through the woods. "What majestic trees! What powerful rivers! What beautiful animals", he said to himself.

As he continued walking alongside the river he heard a rustling in the bushes. Turning to look, he saw a 7 foot Bear charging towards him.

He ran as fast as he could up the path. Looking over his shoulder he saw that the bear was closing in on him. His heart was pumping frantically and he tried to run even faster.

He tripped and fell on the ground. He rolled over to pick himself up but saw the bear raising his paw to take a swipe at him.

At that instant the atheist cried out, "Oh my God!"

Time stopped.
The bear froze.
The forest was silent.

It was then that a bright light shone upon the man and a voice from heaven asked, "You deny my existence for all of these years, teach others I don't exist and even credit creation to a cosmic accident. Do you expect me to help you out of this predicament? Am I to count you as a believer?

The atheist looked directly into the light. "It would be hypocritical of me to suddenly ask you to treat me as a Christian now, but perhaps, could you make the BEAR a Christian?"

"Very well", said the Voice. The light went out, and the sounds of the forest resumed.

And then the bear lowered his paw, bowed his head and spoke: "Lord, bless this food which I am about to receive and for which I am truly thankful, Amen.”

A shaggy bear tale, love it, @TallTrees  🤣

[MI5]

A hunter goes into the woods to hunt a bear. He carries his trusty 22-gauge rifle with him.

After a while, he spots a very large bear, takes aim, and fires. When the smoke clears, the bear is gone.

A moment later, the bear taps the hunter on the shoulder and says, “No one shoots at me and gets away with it. You have two choices: I can rip your throat out and eat you, or you can drop your trousers, bend over, and I’ll [insert appropriate colloquialism for sodomy here].”

The hunter decides that anything is better than death, so he drops his trousers and bends over; and the bear does what he said he would do.

After the bear has left, the hunter pulls up his trousers and staggers back into town.

He’s pretty mad. He buys a much larger gun and returns to the forest. He sees the same bear, aims, and fires. When the smoke clears, the bear is gone.

A moment later the bear taps the hunter on the shoulder and says, “You know what to do.” Afterward, the hunter pulls up his trousers, crawls back into town, and buys a bazooka.

Now he’s really mad. He returns to the forest, sees the bear, aims, and fires. The force of the bazooka blast knocks him flat on his back. When the smoke clears, the bear is standing over him and says, “You’re not doing this for the hunting, are you?”

It's a marriage of convenience.
