I get a good laugh every once in a while, but feel like I'm all serious about my life now that I laugh less now than when I was in my early 20s.

What about yall?

    Yes I laugh more. One of the things that attracts me to the strut is laughter.

    Uhmm, possibly more - I think with age I've learnt to literally laugh at things that might've made me confused/angry/frustrated in the past, and as I have few/fewer responsibilities than I might (for a 35 yr old), usually having a crack at work, or in the pub or whatever.


    Case in point: met a friend who'd tried killing himself a few weeks previous. After trying the serious Your life IS worth it, nothing in the past matters THAT much route, I decided to rip the piss out of the fact that he couldn't move the fingers in his hand (sliced through the wrist too deep - Arnie in T2 "show him" scene-R), called him Beadle (UK heads-r), told him a load of Jimmy Saville jokes, dry-humped him when he was trying to get served drinks at the bar, and made a general nuisance of myself... but had him in fits of laughter, and before the night was done he was giving me hugs and telling me that's what he really needed and less of the serious vibes.

    I think when I was younger I may not have known the best way to deal with a situation like that.

    Actually, my ego and I are more like fuck buddies.

    About the same amount, though it's been a while since I was laughing so hard I couldn't breathe.

    I, too, am trying to follow the 'laugh so you don't cry' philosophy....though there seems to be overlaps; woman at work and me had tears running down our faces last week over some ridiculous (not in a good way) work shit that made us laugh and laugh and laugh.

    I worry about how my laugh sounds sometimes. There are some real annoying-sounding laughs in my office.

    I enjoy funny things a lot more now as I get older. My son constantly cracks me up so I'm laughing a lot.

    I laugh every time I pee, so it's about the same as previous years.

    And then do you feel better?

    oh okay. I guess age doesn't matter. Guess it more has to do with my transitional phase right now.

    I'm probably at the best point in my life I've ever been. There have been highs and lows, mostly highs, but some serious, self-inflicted lows. However, at this stage in the game I've never felt better. Work is fulfilling, social life is strong, but not overpowering. My fams are doing great, most of them at least. Health is as good as could be expected; that includes mental health, which all to often people ignore.

    The laughs come easy these days.

    Interesting thread.

    The other day, while trying to teach my just about to be 3 year old daughter that it's not ok to hit her baby brother, I burst into laughter because she got all floppy, no bones and just collapsed in a "ughh, do I have to listen to this shit" kind of way. It made me laugh and then I lost it and all disciplining was out the window. I hid my face in my arms and pretended to sneeze in an attempt to recover te situation.

    She cracks me up all the time.

    I just received this email:

    Unquestionably believe that which you said. Your favorite justification appeared to be on the web the simplest thing to be aware of. I say to you, I certainly get irked while people consider worries that they just do not know about. You managed to hit the nail upon the top and also defined out the whole thing without having side effect , people could take a signal. Will probably be back to get more. Thanks

    This most realistic skate game of all time made me actually laugh tonight.
