Am feeling really meh at the moment and would love to hear what’s made you chuckle.

this made me laugh earlier
And something else just now but I can't remember what.

Oh I remember it was a Ring door bell of a woman spectacularly falling from her car, all the way up the garden path into the house.

The Human Ventriloquist puppets by Nina Continue makes me also hard I can’t breathe.

If I ever need cheering up I watch the episode of the graham norton show with wiil.i.am and miriam margoyles.

The last thing that really tickled me - I couldn’t stop chuckling for ages - was a thread here on MN about naughty things our toddlers have done.
In particular, one poor lady who said her toddler got hold of a permanent marker pen, and “joined all the dots on my dalmatian”!
The more I thought about that poor dalmatian going out for walks with his dots joined, and the inevitable comments, the more hysterical I got!

My dog makes me laugh every day. She's as daft as a brush. Just watching her run round the park chasing bubbles makes me laugh. She's nature's antidepressant.

My guilty pleasure when I'm working is to have Dress to Impress on the TV, the voice over guys one liners are brilliant.

Also, Damn You Autocorrect is guaranteed to make me laugh.

Probably the kids but at the weekend I saw some friends for the first time this year and we belly laughed all night.

This:

We had to pause it until we stopped laughing (we were watching whole episode, not just this clip).

I will qualify this by saying I am pregnant and hormonal…

My DH farted and I let out a half hearted chuckle and then burst into absolute floods of tears. This set me off properly belly laughing, but also crying, for about 10 minutes whilst he stood watching with an Hmm face.

Actually something on MN; I was reading the have-you-gone-home-early-from-a-holiday thread and one poster was telling the tale of her dad throwing drenched camping gear into the boot of the car and slamming it shut, whereupon the back window fell out. I could imagine my dad doing the same.

Ihopeyourcakeisshit · 05/05/2021 18:21

Just listened to Mark and Lard as The Shirehorses doing a spoof of The Seahorses Love is the law. Haven't heard it for 20 + years, made me laugh out loud.
I bloody love Mark Radcliffe.

On the bus the other day and I’d been scrolling through Facebook and didn’t lock my screen. Realised I’d shared someone’s ranty, TMI status about the OW and her ex via private messages. Managed to delete before the charity shop I’d been messaging read (although I did get an automatic ‘thanks for your enquiry, we’ll be in touch soon’ message). The sofa cleaning company read my message though and must’ve thought WTF. My teen laughed so hard she cried and I had to join in. So mortified!

My 5yr old DS cut his knee earlier...He ran upstairs and came down with a sanitary towel and declared' This plaster will cover it'
Your ds is totally right! I used to frequently cut up sanitary towels when my ds where little and had scraps, and put some micropore on to hold it in place!

DH came in from work a few weeks back and was pottering away in the kitchen making a drink.

We were talking about Covid, lateral flow tests he has to provide to be allowed into work etc.

He comes out with, "I can book my dingus vaccine now"

I was in the next room with a puzzled look on my face then just burst out laughing.

He was all, what did I say.

I asked him if it was a vaccine to make him into a dingus or if he meant the anti-dingus one.

Then he went and we were joking abour his desire to be a dingus half the night.

No idea where the dingus came from.

The Freddie Mercury/David Bowie cake disasters on GBBO, made me cry with laughing.
Also, this is really really old, but it still makes me laugh to this day. No idea why

Onesnowynight · 05/05/2021 18:30

Down dp’s watching telly with his 80 year mum (who I adore!) and she’s reading something on tv and says ‘prick!’ Followed by an ‘oops’ then a ‘oh no I said prick!’ and ending with a ‘omg I said it again!’

Really had to be there, but to hear it out of her mouth was the funniest thing.

Twospaniels · 05/05/2021 18:32

My dad had a small stroke which affected his speech a bit. I am doing tongue twisters with him.

“Susie sits in a shoeshine shop, where she sits she shines and where she shines she sits”.

You can imagine the errors he made saying this, but we laughed so much, which is really good for him too!

My two ponies, one average size and one tiny.... both tacked up in their pen and waiting for their riders.

The tiny one had got his reins over his head and the bigger one had put his hoof through the reins.

Wherever the bigger one walked, the smaller one was then being lead round by him and had to follow Neither understood what was happening but just calmly accepted that this was the new way of things. The look of benign confusion was priceless.

Of course I went to the rescue but I laughed and laughed

Just a general one, I was at work today and my colleague called someone, a female answered and my colleague immediately said 'hello, is that Dave?' I lost it.
