Funny Jokes and Humor – Something for Everyone

Humor is an essential part of our lives, is as necessary as all other fuzzy emotions such as love, anger, etc. It dictates how comfortable we feel at our workplace, with a person we just met and how much money we make (in some cases!). The truth is that without humor we are as good as dead. Humor brightens our day and changes our entire perspective about our daily routines in a second. Yes, that’s the power of humor, it is so big that the entertainment industry is currently is above the real estate market (as far as earnings), but don’t take my word for it, look it up!. A decent comedian in comedy central makes more money than a mortgage broker without having all the work related stress.

Now that we have established that humor is great, an important part of our lives and big business, lets start by analyzing the way humor affects our daily life. If you have a desk job, work within a big corporation, are in sales, etc. you have probably noticed that once in a while there comes a person who with just a few words brightens your day, or there is a co-worker you just can’t imagine being without, no, I’m not talking about being in love, we are referring to humor.

It is a fact that most of the people (91.3% actually) who find a job boring, will end up leaving it in less than 3 months. That is just terrible from an employer’s point of view, they loose money by training new employees every few months. Employers and most companies know this, that is why we often hear, “A company name, the best place to work at”, or during the recruitment process we hear “Our company is a leader of this rapidly growing market and offers a fun environment to work at”. What statements like that usually mean is you’ll be buried in paperwork and running around all day long, but off course some people like to work hard so they are the 1% exception. There is nothing funny about jobs like that but they have to advertise it that way to get people interested.

Every now and then, we come across certain individuals who overcame their environment or simply have a different perspective of life who break the ice with a funny sentence, others simply try to memorize jokes and funny quotes, but when they forget about a critical line of the joke they crash and burn, they know it and so does everybody else but people end up laughing because of “social respect”.

For instance, don’t you feel a bit awkward every time someone who you know, is not a good at telling jokes, and this person constantly tries to break the ice with his/her less than funny jokes?, it has happened to me and everyone. I just wish that for once I wouldn’t be the one saying the bad jokes!.

Not everyone has joke telling talents, and that’s OK. But people who know don’t have such talent shouldn’t attempt stunts like these in public. There are many comedians I can reference to but I’ll quote Ronald Reagan (Yeah, the president). Regardless of his highly stressful occupation (and age), he was a “mentally hilarious” person who knew how to deliver a good-funny line at the right moment. For example:

– When asked by a reporter what kind of Governor he would be (back in 1966), he answered “I don’t know. I’ve never played a governor.”

– When he was asked about the deficit the country was going through he said “I am not worried about the deficit. It is big enough to take care of itself.”

– When asked about the Government views on economy, instead of talking about foreign exchange markets, interests, war etc. he said “Government’s view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it.”

– Or, “Politics is not a bad profession. If you succeed there are many rewards, if you disgrace yourself you can always write a book.”

As you see by these few examples show that being funny has nothing to do with lengthy jokes, its all about delivery and honest but simple lines, an average person can understand. By average I mean 93.4% of the population.

Learning how to use irony, juxtaposition and delivery can set you apart from the rest of the boring people, so help change the world for the best.

By the way, did you know that over 95% of all statistics are made up in the spot?; you might just want to keep that in mind!.

Funny Videos: your Online Resource of Instant Humor

“Laughter is the medicine.” However clichéd this might sound there’s no denying the truth of the statement. More often than not, we come across people who are over-stressed, hardly having the urge even to force a smile. In most cases, people do realize the need for refreshing humor, which would take away the burden of their stressful lives and fill them with fresh energy. But unfortunately, they lack sufficient time to venture out of their homes with the sole motive of entertaining themselves. Thankfully, the Internet has a lot of scope for those who feel the urge to chill out and have a bite of quick humor just at the click of a mouse!

Analyzing the current scenario, there has been a major upsurge in the number of funny videos and funny pictures over the Internet. There are numerous video blogging sites hosting funny video clips or pictures for people to have a hearty laugh. The success of You Tube.com has clearly revealed the inclination of people towards humor. So what accounts for the sudden rise in the popularity of these funny videos and pictures? A close observation of the trend might lead us to trace the psychological workings of the people’s minds at large.

To begin with, it’s not always the hunt for instant humor that can be held responsible for the rising popularity of fun-oriented websites. The visual appeal of funny videos is a major source of attraction, drawing the attention of a majority of people. The fact that things presented visually have a greater appeal can hardly be negated. Even movies, inspired from bestsellers, gain much more popularity than their original counterpart; the reason being the way in which they appeal to the eyes. If humor is sought as a pastime, it would not be conceivable for most of us to read books on wit and humor. This, of course, depends on a person’s taste but as commonly observed, reading becomes an even more remote possibility when one takes into consideration the numerous entertainment options available on the Internet.

Nevertheless, momentary humor remains the USP of sites hosting funny pictures and videos. Most of these videos feature some light moments shared with our family, friends, or colleagues. Out of them, funny videos of babies and kids are really a treat to watch. These moments of joy fill our hearts with warmth and allow us to unwind our spirits, thus healing our stressful souls.

With the Internet industry hugely inclined towards videos, funny videos have fast turned out to be a huge rage. There is no dearth of people hunting for some quick comic relief online. So, be it funny pictures or videos, the appeal never seems to fag out!

Funny Videos to Keep the Humor Alive!

Go online and you will find countless funny video clips. Be it amateur clips to professional videos, animated versions to live comedy acts, the internet have all the formulas that will have you rolling with laughter!

A lot of websites feature funny video clips. some of them are video sharing sites where users can post videos they find funny as well as rate video clips posted by others. Several sites even feature funny video clips on their own. The user just has to browse through it without making any effort.

Who has the time to watch long movies that may seem to be amusing at first but end up being not-so-funny. Instead, you can go online and watch a relatively short video clip. That’s really convenient and won’t take much time either. The result – you have fun!

At CGAPS, you can just scroll for videos and find one within a few seconds, not even minutes. On an average, a funny video clip is not more than 5 minutes in duration. Say goodbye to the TV show which takes up no less than half an hour of your time to get you relaxed and have some laughs. If you’re in a hurry or need a quick break from work, funny video clips at CGAPS are the way to go.

More than any other kind of videos, funny video clips are cool in their viral effect. It’s simple. When you like a video clip, send it to a friend to make them be part of the fun too. In turn, the friend will forward it to a few of his/her friends. So, funny video clips spread like a virus but the best part is that they are not damaging, only amusing.

If you take your health seriously, this can be just one more way to be a healthier person. Laughing is good for you. Endless numbers of medical research teams have said that it helps to fight, prevent and cure disease. It’s like exercising…you breathe deeper, your heart beats faster and move a little if you’re laughing hard.

Now that’s enough reason to watch a funny video clip whenever you can!

Conversation In An Age Of Confusion

What do people talk about when they all believe different things and nobody is sure what the other person believes?

Then you add to that the usual courtesy that most people don’t want to offend other people, especially when it comes to the topics people disagree about with the most intensity, such as politics and religion, which all but the most foolhardy consider way off limits, at least, in what is referred to as polite conversation.

Actually, the silence of the times is far wider. In fact, the silken muffler of a feared indiscretion is wrapped around virtually every significant area of human thought, from philosophy to economics.

So what are we left with? Certain relatively safe topics, like poetry, unless you’re among poets whose egos are hair-trigger ready to fire back their own preferences vehemently. History might also be a good bet, since the overall tale has been pretty well agreed on, unless, once again, you’re with historians who may be simmering with their own disagreements.

The result? Conversation generally defaults to entrancing topics like the weather. Many spend entire evenings discussing such substitute content as one trifling entertainment or inconsequential entertainer after another. Things get really exciting when someone happens to mention how someone else may look tonight. Then there’s always the daring raconteur who’s arrayed with an evenings worth of sexual allusions.

Listening to such excited vapidity, one’s mind wanders to the legendary salons of France, at their epiphany, home, we read, to forthright conversation about the headiest topics of the time, generally centered around the new insights and old illusions of The Age of Reason.

At vagrant moments, you cannot help but ask yourself if the human race ever get to another time when it has enough beliefs in common to enliven its social occasions with conversations that really are interesting.
