I know a story of a working mom who worked in a bakery. One day, she came to work with her hair in a wild mess because her kids had been playing with her hairbrush. Her co - workers teased her about it all day. But she took it in good humor and said it was her new 'fashion statement' made by her little stylists at home. And by the end of the day, they were all joking about starting a new trend in the bakery.
One story I heard was about a mom who worked in an office. She had to bring her sick child to work one day. The kid was so drowsy from the medicine that he fell asleep on the floor under her desk. Every time she moved her chair, she had to be extra careful not to roll over him. It was both a funny and a heart - warming situation.
There's a working mom who was at a business lunch. She had just taken a big bite of her sandwich when her phone rang. It was her daughter's school. She tried to answer while still chewing, and ended up spitting out some food accidentally. She quickly apologized to the person on the phone and then to her lunch partners. They all found it really funny, and she later said it was a lesson to always swallow before answering the phone.
There was this family where the mom loved blueberry muffins. Her children planned a 'muffins for mom' day. They went to a local orchard to pick fresh blueberries for the muffins. They spent the whole day baking and when they finally presented the muffins to their mom, the look on her face was priceless. It was not just about the muffins but also the whole experience of them gathering the ingredients together as a family.
A hotel had a new trainee at the front desk. A guest came and asked for a room with a view. The trainee, a bit flustered, said 'Sure, we have a room with a view of our very nice dumpster!' Everyone nearby burst out laughing, including the guest who then kindly asked for a different room.
A surfer told me that he once borrowed a wetsuit that had a big hole in an embarrassing place. He didn't notice until he was already in the water. Every time he paddled, water would gush in through the hole. He said he felt like he was getting a very cold and unexpected bath.
There was a story where a player's character was a mage. During a battle, instead of casting a spell on the enemy, the mage cast a spell on his own feet and started dancing uncontrollably. This distracted the enemy so much that they just stood there watching in confusion, which actually gave the player enough time to regroup and win the battle. It's a really funny and unexpected turn of events.
There was a conference where a keynote speaker got on stage and realized he had put on two different - colored shoes. He just laughed it off and said it was his new fashion statement for the day. The whole crowd loved his self - confidence and sense of humor.
There was a time when in a ragging session, the seniors made the freshmen act out a scene from a famous movie in reverse. One group chose 'Titanic'. Watching them try to reenact the sinking of the ship in reverse, with people climbing up the ship instead of down, and the 'iceberg' disappearing was extremely hilarious. It was a creative and funny way of ragging that didn't cross any lines. The whole atmosphere was filled with laughter and it became a memorable event for all who witnessed it.
I heard about a groom who was supposed to say his vows. But instead of the romantic words he had practiced, he accidentally started reciting a recipe for his favorite cake. His bride couldn't stop laughing and neither could the guests.
I heard about a hooker who mistook a priest for a regular client. She started her usual pitch and the poor priest was so flustered. He just started praying out loud, which made the hooker realize her mistake and run away in embarrassment.
I heard about a girl who thought her boyfriend was going to propose on Valentine's Day. She got all dressed up and was waiting for a romantic dinner. But instead, he broke up with her right after the appetizer, saying he wanted to be single to focus on his career. The funny thing was she was so stunned that she just started laughing uncontrollably. Later she realized it was better this way.
I heard about a guy who bet on a horse race. He picked the horse because it had a name similar to his girlfriend's. The horse was a total underdog, but it ended up winning. He was over the moon and said it was fate. He ran around the track cheering like a crazy person.
