I know a guy with social anxiety disorder. He once accidentally walked into the wrong party. Instead of running away in panic as he usually would, he just froze and started making really awkward small talk with a potted plant. Everyone at the party noticed and found it hilarious. He was embarrassed at first but later could laugh about it too.
A patient in a mental asylum was convinced that he was a superhero. He would run around the asylum with a bedsheet as a cape, trying to 'fly' from one end of the corridor to the other. He even attempted to 'rescue' other patients from non - existent villains.
A young girl was feeling down. She decided to write down all her negative thoughts on pieces of paper and then crumple them up like little balls. Then she set up a 'negative thought basketball hoop' and started shooting the paper balls into it. She was laughing so hard by the end of it. This simple and funny activity helped her to let go of her negative emotions and improved her mental state. It shows that we can use creativity to turn bad feelings into something fun and therapeutic.
There was a story of an IT team that was migrating data. They accidentally moved all the old photos from the company's archive to the CEO's personal folder. The CEO was quite surprised when he opened his folder and saw all those old memories. It made for a very funny situation.
One funny story is about a convict who painted his face to look like a zebra thinking it would help him blend into the prison yard. But all it did was make him stand out even more and become the laughingstock of the prison.
I heard about a barista who tried to create a new coffee art design. He was so focused on making it perfect that he didn't notice the customer had already left. He ended up with a beautiful design but no one to admire it.
One story I heard was about a player who was trying to build a house in a really hilly area. He kept getting the foundation wrong because of the uneven ground. After hours of trying, he finally managed to build it, but it was slanting so much that it looked like it was about to topple over any second. It was really funny to see.
At a Halloween party, a man came dressed as a mummy. He had wrapped himself so tightly in toilet paper that he could hardly move. When he tried to dance, he just wiggled in one place. And then he accidentally knocked over a bowl of punch. The punch spilled all over his 'mummy' wrappings and made him look like he had been in a really messy accident. It was a very funny sight.
One story is about a rugby team that accidentally showed up at the wrong field for a game. They were all ready to play and warming up when they realized it wasn't their venue. They had to quickly rush to the correct place, all looking a bit silly.
A scout group was doing a night - time navigation exercise. One scout was so confident that he took a 'shortcut' which led him straight into a muddy pond. He emerged all muddy and looking like a swamp monster, and his friends couldn't stop laughing.
I heard of a patient who started making chemo - related memes during his treatment and shared them with the other patients. They were things like a picture of a chemo bag with the caption 'My new sidekick for the fight'. Everyone thought they were hilarious.
