There was a Fathers Day when we decided to have a family photo session. Dad was trying to look all serious and proper. But right when the photographer was about to take the picture, a bird flew over and pooped on his head. Dad was so shocked at first, but then he started laughing. We all burst out laughing too. That photo ended up being the most memorable one from that Fathers Day, with dad trying to clean his head while still smiling for the camera.
My family once planned a Fathers Day picnic. Dad was in charge of packing the cooler. He put in all kinds of food, but when we got to the park and opened it, we found out he had forgotten to pack any utensils. So there we were, trying to eat fried chicken with our hands and sharing sandwiches by breaking them into pieces. Dad was so embarrassed, but we all had a great time and still tease him about it to this day. It was a Fathers Day full of laughter.
Sure. There was a Memorial Day picnic where they had a three - legged race. Two veterans teamed up, but they were so out of sync that they ended up falling over each other multiple times. It was really funny to watch.
Once, a missionary was sharing a story during a gathering. He got so excited that he mixed up two important religious figures in the story. The listeners were initially shocked but then couldn't help but laugh. The missionary, realizing his mistake, joined in the laughter and then corrected himself. This incident showed that even missionaries can make mistakes and have a humorous side. It also made the whole atmosphere more relaxed and friendly.
Sure. He had an incident where he was at an event and thought he could fit through a small doorway sideways. But he got stuck! He wiggled around trying to get free while everyone was cracking up. Eventually he managed to get through, all red - faced and still laughing at himself.
Sure. There was a patient who was so bored that he started making shadow puppets on the wall using the light from the medical devices. The nurses and other patients were entertained. Another patient thought the ICU was a hotel and asked for a room service menu.
Yes, the way they made their hiding place feel like a home in some ways. They might have had some funny DIY attempts to decorate or make the place more comfortable. Like using odd items to create a makeshift chair or table. It's these small, creative and somewhat humorous efforts that stand out as funny in the story.
In a church potluck, there was a baking competition. One woman made a beautiful looking cake. But when she cut into it to serve, it was still raw in the middle. She had forgotten to set the timer correctly. Everyone was laughing and she ended up getting a special 'Most Creative Cake' award for the unexpected result.
Sure. There's a story where a Freemason was giving a speech during a special event at the lodge. He accidentally tripped on his own robe while walking up to the podium. Instead of getting flustered, he made a joke about how the lodge's floors were so shiny they were trying to make him fall. The whole place erupted in laughter and his speech went on smoothly after that.
Sure. I remember a narcissist who thought his voice was the most important in every conversation. In a group discussion, he would constantly interrupt others to share his 'brilliant' ideas. But most of the time, his ideas were not that great. He just liked the sound of his own voice. It was funny to watch the others' reactions as they got more and more frustrated with him.
Ed Orgeron was at a recruiting event. He was trying to convince a top prospect to join his team. He started to tell a joke to break the ice. The joke was a bit corny, but the way he told it with his big smile and Cajun accent made everyone around laugh, including the prospect. It actually helped in making the prospect more interested in the team. He told a joke about a football player and a gator. The details of the joke were really silly, but his enthusiasm made it funny.
Sure. A veteran once shared that during a Veterans Day celebration at his post, they had a cooking competition. One team made a 'cake' that was supposed to be in the shape of a tank. But it ended up looking more like a lumpy blob. They all had a great laugh about it and still joke about it every Veterans Day.
