Social media - it caught on and took off to become part of our daily lives, with as many purposes as there are people using it. Special to me are those folks who use it to express their wit and humor for the benefit of us all. We all have our own sense of humor and what follows is mine - these are some of the posts that have given me a laugh...
"If you're reading this while taking a poo, please note that I wrote this while taking one also. Thus a mutual bond is created through the porcelain, pipes and sewage between us." (Jordan)
"I hate it when I get invited to weird events on Face Book. For the fifth time, I do not want to go to your cat's birthday party, freak. My dog is getting married." (Leanne)
"... is excited that there will be a new gartner to welcome into the world!" (14 family queries in less that an hour): "whoa! that was fast! just wanted to say hi to everybody - figured that was the way to get a reply. Hi family." (Becky)
"Just broke my personal record for most consecutive days lived." (Nick)
"Hey everyone. My shopping is done! How about yours? Is your shopping done? I've finished my wrapping too! Have you finished your wrapping? Do you still have to go to the Mall? I don't have to go to the Mall - annoying Andrew." (Andrew)
"Dear Superstore: it's been long enough. Give your damn product a name." (Jordan)
"The kids down the street have challenged me to a water fight. I'm just updating my FB status while I wait for the water to boil." (Colin)
Wall Photo: "Reincarnation Disappointment" - picture of a large hippo shouting: "I said HIPPIE." (Patti)
Wall Photo: "Drink coffee - do stupid things faster with more energy."
"That's two telemarketers that have hung up on me now! I thought they wanted to chat." (Becky)
On a rainy day in January: "I am glad it is raining out ... my lawn was looking dry." (Nick)
"If there were zombies in Calgary, they'd freeze rock solid ... Ha! Take that undead!" (Andrew)
Question: "Is it cold there? Pity." Response: "Cold? Well if someone tells us we can have it when hell freezes over - it's ours." (me - I thought it was funny)
"Do seagulls EVER stfu?" (Colin)
"No matter how hard you try, you cannot baptise a cat." (Colin again)
"Annual photo with Santa tomorrow. If he asks me if I've been good, is not getting caught the same as being good?" (Andrew)
"Talking about your feelings is kind of like throwing up except you don't feel better after." (Shelby)
"I just read an article on the dangers of heavy drinking ... scared the hell out of me. So that's it, after today ... no more reading." (Nick)
"To the lady screaming at her five screaming kids all under the age of eight at Wal Mart, if you're wondering where the condoms came from --- you're welcome." (Leanne)
"I started my Christmas shopping last night ... finished my Christmas shopping this afternoon ... hope everyone likes their toilet plungers and toothbrush sets." (Becky)
"Lesson Learned In Life: follow your heart but take your brain with you."
And finally: "I'm thankful for laughter except when milk comes out my nose."
Well I did begin by letting you know this would be about what struck me as funny - and I got a laugh out of all of them. Life has its challenges and stresses; laughter lets us put out cares in a back place for a bit while we enjoy the break. So keep it up everyone - you are as funny as you think you might be - and you make it a better day for those of us who have the opportunity to read your posts. And that is what I have to say - for now.
