My sister was really stressed about moving to a new place. To relieve stress, she started making up a song about all the things she hated about packing. She sang it in the most ridiculous voice, and it was so catchy that soon the whole family was singing it. It turned the whole moving process into a much more fun and less stressful experience. The song was full of lines like 'Packing boxes, what a pain, I'd rather be in the rain'.
There's a story about a student who was stressed about finals. He took all his study notes, made them into paper airplanes, and then launched them out of his dorm window. He said it was like sending his stress flying away. He got in a bit of trouble for littering, but it was still a very funny and creative way to deal with stress. He felt so much better after that little stunt.
A co - worker of mine was stressed with his job. He went to the park during lunch break and started doing handstands. He's not very good at them, so he kept falling over. But he just kept trying and laughing at his own clumsiness. It was a really simple yet funny way to relieve stress.
Sure. One time, my friend was really stressed about an exam. So he decided to do some crazy dancing in his room all by himself. He put on some really loud and funky music and just let loose. His wild moves made him laugh so hard that all his stress melted away. It was hilarious just imagining him bouncing around like that.
I remember a story from 2023 where a little kid at a park thought a statue was a real person and started having a full - blown conversation with it. The kid was asking questions like 'Why are you so quiet?' and waiting for an answer. It was really cute and funny.
One memorable story is about a woman who found a lost kitten in the rain. She took it home, dried it off, and gave it some warm milk. The kitten was so grateful that it followed her everywhere around the house. It was really cute to see how this act of compassion led to a new furry friend for the woman.
In a library, a PUA tried his luck. He walked up to a girl and said in a really hushed voice, 'I think you dropped something - my jaw'. The girl was reading a serious book and at first was a bit annoyed. But then she saw the humor in it and started giggling. They then had a whispered conversation about books and ended up becoming study partners. It just shows that even in the most unexpected places, a funny PUA approach can lead to an interesting connection.
One memorable story is about a man who thought he could carry a large IKEA box by himself. He ended up dropping it on his foot and had to hop around the store. Another is when a woman mistook a plant stand for a side table and was so confused when she got home and tried to put things on it. It was just too small!
I know of a hiring story where a man came to an interview for a sales job. He brought a huge stack of papers which he said were his 'credentials'. But when he started presenting them, it turned out they were just printouts of random jokes. He said he wanted to show his sense of humor first. The hiring team was initially shocked but then found it really funny and gave him a chance.
I remember a story where a man was trying to do a serious work meeting on Zoom during quarantine. His kids were home and they kept running into the room making funny faces behind him. He was trying so hard to keep a straight face. Another funny thing was a woman who decided to redecorate her living room during quarantine. She painted one wall a bright pink but then realized it clashed horribly with the rest of the decor. She ended up with a living room that looked like a cotton candy nightmare. And there was a couple who tried to have a romantic dinner at home. But their dog kept stealing food from the table and they ended up chasing the dog around the house instead of having a nice dinner.
There was a family who had a pet chicken that they let into the house. The chicken would follow the family around like a dog. It would jump on the couch and even try to peck at the TV remote. It made for some really hilarious and odd moments in their household. The family loved that chicken despite its strange behavior.
My friend has a Roomba that has a habit of getting attracted to shiny things. One day, it chased a coin all around the living room until it finally sucked it up. Then it seemed so proud of itself, like it had found a great treasure. Also, my own Roomba once managed to climb onto a small rug and got stuck there. It was just spinning in place, and when I went to check, it looked like it was trying to do some sort of crazy stunt.
There was a man who accidentally fell asleep during his MRI. He was snoring really loudly and the technicians were trying hard not to laugh. When he woke up, he had no idea what had happened and was confused as to why they were all smiling. It was a hilarious moment.
