One funny thing was that people started having virtual happy hours. My neighbors would dress up in crazy outfits for their online drinks with friends, like wearing a tuxedo on top and pajama bottoms. It was hilarious to see them so creative with their Zoom appearances.
One day, my neighbor was so worried about getting COVID - 19 that he started wearing a snorkel mask instead of a regular face mask. He said it would give him more protection. Every time he went out, people stared at him, but he didn't care. He even made a sign that said 'Super - Safe Snorkel Mask' and carried it around. It was really hilarious.
I remember a time when I was at a park. There was a man jogging with his mask on, but it was so windy that his mask blew off his face and landed on a dog that was passing by. The dog got scared and started running in circles with the mask still on it. It was quite a sight.
One funny story is that during a Zoom meeting, someone's cat walked across the keyboard and accidentally muted the whole team. We all spent a few minutes trying to figure out what happened while the cat just sat there looking innocent.
There were many instances of people accidentally muting or unmuting themselves at the wrong time during online classes or meetings. I remember one time a teacher was teaching seriously and suddenly his toddler ran into the room, and he forgot to mute himself. We all heard the toddler's babbling and the teacher's embarrassed attempts to get the kid out. It was quite a comical moment. And also, the DIY haircut disasters that some people had. Since salons were closed, many tried to cut their own hair and ended up with some really strange looks. It was funny to see their before - and - after pictures on social media.
Sure. One story is about a family who started a quarantine talent show. Everyone in the family had to perform a unique talent, from the grandpa doing magic tricks with his walking stick to the little kid doing a wild dance. It brought so much laughter during those locked - down days.
Well, in my neighborhood, there was a man who was always trying to do something new during lockdown. He set up a mini - golf course in his backyard. He invited his neighbors to play while maintaining social distance. It was a hilarious sight to see everyone trying to play golf in such a small space but having a great time.
A lot of people started cooking new and strange recipes while stuck at home. My friend tried to make a super - complicated French dish but ended up with something that looked like a science experiment gone wrong. It was so funny to see the final result.
Sure. One story is about a man who was so bored during lockdown that he started a 'talking to plants' competition with his neighbor. They would stand on their balconies and tell stories to their plants, and the plants that seemed the healthiest at the end were declared the winners. It was a really silly but fun way to pass the time.
Sure. In my office, we had a video call meeting. One of my colleagues' cat jumped on his lap and started walking all over the keyboard during the meeting. His face was so panicked as he tried to shoo the cat away while still looking professional. And we could see all these random characters popping up on his screen as the cat stepped on the keys. It was a really funny moment in the middle of the serious COVID - 19 work - from - home situation.
