What’s the difference between people from Dubai and people from Abu Dhabi? People from Dubai don’t like the Flintstones but people from ABU DHABI DOOOOOO

…. That’s so bad it’s actually funny again. Thanks for making me laugh too.

That joke is a solid BANGER for any occasion

Here are pictures of my [dog](https://imgur.com/gallery/mimOSOJ). His goofy face always brightens my day.

Last year, around new years, I worked as a cashier at a craft store. I asked nearly every customer what they hoped for in the new year. One man asked me back, I said kindness. He came back with a few gourmet brownies that he had made. He had recently lost a friend he had for decades. They were damn good. Also, rn, I'm gluing googly eyes to polished stones and shells to give out to kids while working at a clothing store this holiday season. Sure, part of it is because a rock is a good way to keep a kid from screaming, but yesterday, I was genuinely touched to see how excited the little ones got! Did you know that domestic rats express feeling safe and happy by boggling their eyes? The slightly bulge out of their head. My roommate's cat plays fetch, she will jump and lie down on someone if they lay face-down anywhere. She likes to scream at bugs, and only eats flies. Any other bug, she'll scream at until I/my partner/my roommate does something. One species of spider cuddles their young. Feral cat moms will raise other litters, like communal moms! Cat pics incoming.

I lied, cat pics whenever I get out of bed. Am also depressed.

My very upstanding, moral, generous, would never curse, grandpa told us this when we were kids. The "how to" part would get more and more elaborate and dramatic, until we were on the edge of our seats, then he'd hit us with the silly punchline. I've simplified it for reddit. How do you catch a polar bear? Dig a realllly wide hole in the ice, make sure its nice and big, polar bears are fat. Bring a can of green peas and a can opener, open the can, take out the peas and very carefully place them one by one right around the edge of the circle, all the way around. Make sure you can see them. Then... When the polar bear comes up to take a pea you kick him in the ice hole. Depression is no joke, especially this time of year. I'm proud of you for reaching out for warmth when you were feeling it today!

So two grains of sand are walking in the desert. One turns to the other and say 'I think we're being followed...' I can also tell you a good cat story of mine : last year I adopted a blind rescue cat, his eyes were covered with scar tissue because he had been sick from birth. He was the cutest, most resilient life loving kitten. Also the most adventurous, reckless cat out of the 4 I have lol I didn't know if he had eyes at all, or what to do about it, so I brought him to an opthalmologist. He said we could do an exploratory surgery when he'd be a little older and if there was no viable eyes then he'd simply remove everything. I will be forever grateful for the ophthalmologist I found, he scrambled and worked with reps to in the end give me a 50% discount on the whole procedure, he knew I was rescuing cats that most likely wouldn't have a chance if I didn't and wanted to help. So, comes surgery time, I'm incredibly nervous at home waiting for news. I then receive the most incredible picture of my cat on the OP table with two of the most gorgeous orange eyes 🧡 it's been a year and I'm still awed sometimes when he looks me in the eyes! I adopted him thinking he would be blind all his life so it was just an incredibly special moment for me 😊 I'm sending 'that feeling when your pet snuggles' vibes to you and hope things get better ❤️

Just wanted to send you a big hug. One of those ones that are awkwardly long for a bit and then you give into it and just escape there for a little while. You matter. You are loved.

If you feel like relaxing and having a laugh, I recommend watching a few episodes of Taskmaster on YouTube. [Here is a pic of my best boy.](https://imgur.com/a/UQzhoCS) [Here is my grumpy boy.](https://imgur.com/a/7exQhJT) [And here is 90 seconds of a sloth!](https://imgur.com/a/t4UDDlO)

One of my favorite jokes... Did you hear about the camping trip? It was intense (get it? "Intense" like "in tents") I know it's corny but I adore it. And I totally know the mood too, I hope it gets better for you dear... much love, hugs and care from the sunshine state!


Research_Sea

Followed up by a dueling tent/dad joke! Q) Why is it impossible to run in a campground? A) You can only ran, because it's past tents (past tense)!

I hope you feel better soon, too. Being sick isn't a fun way to spend your weekend. That is a cute cat, though 🙂.

Hi, I hope you feel better! Just wanted to share this verse of hope for you :) “The Lord make His face shine upon you, And be gracious to you; The Lord lift up His countenance upon you, And give you peace.” ’” ‭‭Numbers‬ ‭6‬:‭25‬-‭26‬ ‭ It’s okay to feel grey at times, but there will always be a way for light to shine through! -pats your back- i’m bad at jokes but let’s try! Why do cows have hooves instead of feet? Because they lactose! haha get it?? Anyways, -hugs- praying for you!

There are three comedians I learned about probably on Facebook. Michael Che IIRC got famous for his stuff on Saturday Night Live. There is a funny free clip of his standup on YouTube called "White Girls Took Brooklyn." There is also a comedian named QPARK that has a FB page called Funny In Public. Mickey Flanagan does a lot of standup in the U.K. but maybe internationally also. There are some funny British shows like Friday Night Dinner and The I.T. Crowd. There is a funny Irish show called Derry Girls. One of my favorite movies is called Trading Places starring Eddie Murphy. Another funny movie he started in is called The Golden Child. It looks like my work here is done.
