Life is too short not to laugh at the absurdities that are thrown are way: tripping up the stairs, burning dinner, cancer. If we all learned to laugh with (or at) ourselves and our lives, we'll be much happier.
Tonight I was walking in the times square subway station (a place where aggression and frustration run rampant) and stopped to listen to this kick ass band consisting of 3 cellos and a bongo. I forget their name, or rather never learned it, but I did sign up to be on their email list; I'll let you know when they have a concert.
On my way up to sign the email list, this man crossed right in front of me. As he rushed past me, I stepped on the back of his flip flop (my feet tend to gravitate towards the backs of flip flops...). He kept walking, but when I looked down, his flip flop was still under my foot. I stole his flip flop!!!! I said sorry and laughed at the random, absurd moment we just shared, but I was the only one laughing. When I looked up and saw him walking towards me with only one flip flop, instead of greeting me with a smile and a "flip flops are craaaazy" type look, he grunted in exasperation, "JESUS FUCKING CHRIST!" Then awkwardly put his foot back into said flip flop and stomped away towards the train.
Did I inconvenience him that much? I don't think so. Maybe I did. I bet his night would have been a tad bit better though if he just laughed about it.
Speaking of laughing, this Onion video is hilarious; it might be my favorite so far. So laugh and enjoy your laughing.
And read the first joke on the bottom crawl, cuz it's mine, bitches!

Oh you didn't. NASCAR represents everything that is pure and holy in this messed up world.
