I looked for a T shirt with this on it! (Didn't find one.)

I am a T shirt fanatic. Some of mine say the following:

(picture of a possum on it) "Let's eat trash and get hit by a car."

(picture of a complex math equation) "What is it about _____ that you don't understand?"

"Surely not everybody was kung fu fighting."

(picture of UK Union Jack flag - I wear this one every 4th of July) "Happy Treason Day, Ungrateful Colonists."

I really want the cat one.

My brother has the classic T-shirt for our state:

"Welcome to New Jersey, where the weak are killed and eaten."

I have to get myself one of those one of these days.

I like the possum one!

I think I want this one, too.

I won't include a link though, it's adult content stuff. Very NSFW. But I laughed so hard I cried the first time I heard it.

And that's all I'm gonna say about that.
OMG yes!!!! I laughed my a*s off at that! Ben is hilarious in his own right and I frequently laugh listening to him. Matt Walsh is another one I'm sure you know about. His sarcasm is priceless!

An old saying popped into my mind that hits home: "Sometimes ya gotta laugh to keep from crying."

I totally agree with this!

The past five years have been very difficult for my husband and me emotionally. And just when we thought "OK, well 2020 has got to be better!" IT WASN'T.

Our challenge has been to keep from allowing all this tragedy and stress to fundamentally change who we are. I'm glad to say that our senses of humor have remained intact - but I have to admit that I'm more cynical than I used to be and I don't really like that change. Oh well.

I laugh out loud all the time and it can be quite embarrassing because I will snort laugh in a hot minute.
I have a close friend that does the same thing and we can both be quite entertaining when we find something funny at the same time. (There was a church youth choir moment that will forever be ingrained in my memory )

I laugh a lot but don’t find most jokes particularly funny. I laugh at things I read on CD and all sorts of witty things people say, also, at times a little bathroom humor cracks me up.

Haha, yes, I have had some youth choir moments too.

i laughed out loud at work, on that one.

this happened recently and i think it is funny. not in a mean way, just in an aren't-people's-quirks-funny way.
a new acquaintance and i went out for the day driving and hiking in an area new to both of us with woods and lake and taking photos. we stayed out longer than planned and he wanted to stop on the way back to get a snack. we found a grocery store that was open, most were closed after 8pm this was during peak of Covid closings. I grabbed a couple things, and carried them up to the register. He had two items also, a single banana and a single serving juice. He had these two items in a large shopping cart that he was pushing. "Do you need to get other things?" I asked him, seeing the large cart. He said no, just this. He drank the juice while he was in line, we paid for our two items each, and walked to the car.

He tossed the empty juice bottle into the recycle container at the register. And we proceeded to walk to the car. He pushed the large full size shopping cart, which contained in it one (yes one) banana.

I thought this was hilarious. One might wonder, well, is he frail and the cart helps him balance, and this saves face for him rather than pushing a walker. But this guy is a strapping 6'2" fellow active hiking and canoeing, we had just spent the day together doing that.

This makes me smile pushing a cart with one banana all the way out to the car in the parking lot. And then pushing it over to the cart collection area too.


as a friend used to say, her quirks make perfect sense, it is other people's quirks that are strange.
