There was a community that organized a socially - distanced car parade to cheer people up during the pandemic. One car had a huge sign that said 'The virus is afraid of my awesomeness'. It was such a silly and positive message that it brought smiles to a lot of faces. People in that area really needed that bit of humor during those tough times.
A group of friends decided to have a virtual costume party during the lockdown. One of them showed up as a giant roll of toilet paper. Since toilet paper was such a scarce item at that time, it was hilarious. Everyone had a great laugh about it.
I heard of a family that started a new tradition during the pandemic. They would have a 'crazy hat Friday' where everyone in the family had to wear the most outlandish hat they could find while having dinner together. It started as a joke but soon became a much - loved weekly event. Another story was about a man who accidentally put his mask on backwards for an entire day and didn't realize it until someone pointed it out to him at the end of the day. He was so embarrassed but it was really funny.
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.
A man entered the sauna with his pet parrot on his shoulder. The parrot started talking and making funny noises because of the heat. Everyone was amused.
Well, I heard of a wedding where the priest accidentally called the bride by the wrong name. The bride just stared at him in disbelief for a moment and then burst out laughing. The whole congregation joined in.
I heard about a neighbor who was so excited to plant a vegetable garden. He planted all kinds of seeds but got the labels mixed up. So, when the plants grew, he ended up with tomatoes growing where he thought the cucumbers would be and vice versa. He was really confused when he started harvesting.
Well, there was a story about a guy who thought he was a superhero in his dreams. His psychotherapist played along for a while, asking him about his 'powers'. Eventually, through this fun role - playing, they got to the root of his insecurities that were causing these dreams. It was hilarious to see how something so out - there could lead to real psychological insights.
One funny ASL story is when a child learning ASL thought the sign for 'bed' was the sign for 'jumping'. So whenever they were asked if they were going to bed, they would start jumping around. It was really cute and funny.
A friend of mine was traveling in Japan. He went into a public restroom. When he came out, the automatic door wouldn't open. He pushed and pushed but it just wouldn't budge. After a few minutes of panic, he realized he was pushing on the wrong side. He said he could hear people outside laughing when he finally got out.
I heard about a guy who went to a water park wearing his briefs instead of swim trunks because he forgot to pack the right ones. His friends couldn't stop laughing at his polka - dot briefs all day.
There was this groundhog that got spooked by its own shadow and ran in circles for a good five minutes. It was so confused and that made it look really silly. Groundhogs are often full of these unexpected and funny behaviors. They can be very entertaining to observe in their natural habitats or even when they accidentally wander into human - occupied areas.
