Do you ever get suspicious when things are going great that some nonsense is around the corner? The universe has plenty of tricks up its sleeve to remind us that happiness is not the absence of misery, but rather the way we deal with it.
Humor is oftentimes one of the best tools that help us to get through everyday life. It reduces stress and makes it easier to cope with all the challenges that come in our path.
'2nny' is an excellent example of this. This fun little social media project shares hilariously relatable jokes on our sleeping habits, work, relationships, and everything in between.
In these situations, a good laugh is a powerful reminder that we're tougher than we think and can tackle obstacles with a smile on our face.

I do this a lot when I’m singing them, if I mess up I restart completely
Make your feet go stomp when the beat go CH- oh wait I didn't appreciate it enough RESTART
Sometimes I just push the replay button and leave it there for my who trip!
Enough money prevents a ton of problems and is a great stress relief. You can pay rent in a safe neighborhood, buy healthy food, fix the car, get decent shoes for your kids, splurge some on fun stuff, go to the doctor in time, and so on. Money is an amazing therapist but of course not a miracle cure.
I need everyone to have more money and therapy. Ideally, everyone should still have free time to live a dignified life, with access to housing, healthcare, education, and security, all free and with quality
I'll be honest, as a former addict, money helps but doesn't solve what rehab/therapy does. If there are inherent issues beneath survival, it will not be solved with money. I've seen people be very well off and be complete messes. There are many options for free and low-cost therapy out there. Some places do a sliding-scale deal. I hear this complaint all the time, but a lot of people that need to go that actually could go for free, don't go. They use money as an excuse. I say this as a person that struggles with mental issues/addiction, needs to be on meds my whole life, and live under the poverty line. Please look for free/low cost programs!
therapy good....more money only leads to wanting more money...get to a place where you can cover rent and utilities the rest is just choices and options...get that happy balance right and you'll never need or want more money (controversial I know ) it just becomes mindless consumerism otherwise...ask yourself "do I really need or want it ?"
would you want anyone to be anything less than honest and open with you?
Load More Replies...very true.... don't say "yes" when you mean "no" to someone and visa versa, you're not sparing their feelings (not that anyone has the right to decide your feelings or you theirs) "I'm an adult Im responsible for my own emotions thank you"....it might seem counterintuitive but it does show respect for the other person, it's also honest open and clear (any good confidence,self esteem and wellbeing courses/group will teach this as standard)
Telling the truth is more fun than lying. A lot of people expect lies and the truth stops them short.
User: "Hello" Me: "What can I do you for?" Saves all that tedious socialising when they just want me to do something !
It's how we Germans are so efficient! ;-) No wasted time wondering what people's intentions are! (As a born Brit and new German, this has been a long road, don't get me wrong.)
Normalize answering "generic excuse" when you don't want to meet someone or come to some event.
Yes!!! listen phone etiquette is different these days. Don't leave me a voicemail unless you're a bot. I'll just assume your bot anyway. Text me. And if you want to call text to ask when is good. I literally get a pit in my stomach seeing a call. I immediately think someone died.
Preparing to be downvoted to oblivion. That’s not phone etiquette, it’s personal communication preferences.
Load More Replies...When phones became a thing they where so convinient, and people were so "bored" and socialy attuned that noone stopped to think about how rude they are. If anyone came into your home and shouted until you gave it atttention, you would throw them out. This is phone!
I'm older but most of my friends text to ask if it's ok to call . This way I can expect it and prepare to give my full attention when the situation needs an actual phone call instead of text.
Some people think this is primarily due to societies lack of communication skills. But think back to house phones. Phone rang and between 1 and 4 different persons could answer, you could also let it ring out and that meant no body was in. Then if you are busy with a location specific task aka gardening, toilet, cooking etc you could decline coming to the phone. Cellphones have given the perception to ppl that because the phone is literally in my pocket you can talk to me anytime of the day. And I believe human communication habits are not exacting like that for most people. So I am not in the least bit surprised that texting is becoming the primary mode of communication.
I’m kind of sad to see this. Sure text is great for a lot of things such as simple communications and for getting things in writing. I think voice calls have a place too. Having the ability to hear, understand and express emotions, unspoken verbal cues and intonation is important. Two way verbal communication is a simple skill that avoid a lot of misunderstandings when understanding intent, care, and is helpful in maintaining and developing relationships and trust better than simple text.
Lol! I don't decline the call, I let it ring. But then I'm honest about it. "I get too anxious to answer calls, sorry." Simple as that. :D
is it 90% of communication is non verbal body language so speaking on the phone loses so much, prefer to speak in person face to face...by all means texting between two people puts them evenly communicating,no body language required (interesting what information gets stored in the brain after a "effective communications" course years later)
The tone of voice during a call can communicate a lot.

Load More Replies...Childhood memories of me and my siblings laying down in bed when it rained hard, mostly the monsoon season back in the country, just laying there hearing the rain dropping on the roof, feeling that comfort, falling asleep, waking up and falling asleep again, happy times-happy memories
There's nothing nicer than a heavy downpour and being tucked up in a warm bed with people you love close by.
Load More Replies...I love standing at the door to my balcony when it’s raining! It’s even better at night.
There's nothing better than sitting at home under a warm blanket and it's raining outside.
What's cooler is going to bed exhausted then being wide awake all night.
It's amazing until you wake up the next morning and have to go out in the soggy muckyness.
Just as I am writing this, it's 1:38 AM here, I am in bed, and it's raining... Unfortunately, it's also falling on my neighbour's garage, which has a roof of wavy plastic sheets... That noise really stands out and is annoying as hell...

Load More Replies...What? People can go to sleep thinking about nothing? I’m envious
It’s gotten to the point that my stress controls my mind , then mind my sleep
I've been overthinking since I could form a coherent thought. I mean, most of my thinking as a kid was "How can I get my revenge on my bullies without shortening their life expectancy or get in trouble for it...?" I understand how that sounds, but we all know how nasty bullies can get and I wanted them to stop hurting me and other innocent kids. In the end, I just framed them for really bad things and got them expelled and they never knew it was me.
This is me. Can't shut me up sometimes, but out of nowhere I could disappear for months on end and just be back like nothing happened.
As a talker, my question to you is (out of desperation at this point), how do I tell someone I love that they talk so much I don't have enough time to think my own thoughts until they leave the house? I don't want to hurt feelings or have him think he should be quiet entirely.
Load More Replies...Or I say things that I regret for the rest of time because I don't seem to know how to carry on a normal conversation.
Hah! I rarely engage with anyone I don't already know well enough to be seen in public with. It's different with large outdoor things like music festivals though?
Me, since Covid lockdown. Just me and the cat. I used to be very quiet. Now, after those 2 years of alone, I can’t seem to shut up or even realize that I need to shut up. Maybe I’ll just say nothing at all.
I can't flirt either, I interrogate men to check compatibility
I'm on the spectrum (Asperger's) so would and do find "flirting" difficult to understand,along with other subtle social interactions.... I muddle through as best I can 🙂👍
Load More Replies...I guess this starts in primary school when you punch the person you have a crush on in the arm.
I think this is how I flirt. I do not know that I’m flirting when I’m flirting, most of the time I don’t even mean to flirt. I just want to have a debate
when i try to flirt i end up looking really weird and creepy and then people suspect that i’m gonna ask them if they want free candy from the back of my white, windowless van 💀
Oh yes! And also when you wake up and think it must be nearly time to get up but, no, you've still got a couple of hours to snooze.
Yes! Came to say this. Second sleep dreams for me are so weird and usually very vivid.
Load More Replies...Me when I wake up because my room is finally cold enough to warrant going under the covers... And it just feels so good...
Nah the second sleep.mess u up - it hit too good - leaving u pissed when I have to get up
I can rarely ever get back to sleep after I wake up at 230/3a because of my infant sized bladder. I'm very much in favor of a nap after breakfast. Too bad I have to be at work at 7a. 🤷🤦😪
Load More Replies...I used to set an alarm about three hours early sometimes... just so I could get that second wave of sleep.
Safe? I guess that could describe it... I seek the person who understands half the stuff I talk about. It took me a while growing up, to realize many people glazed over when I spoke about the things that made me happy.

I'm a completely different human being than they think I am... got a whole secret life... 😏
My own family doesn't even bother. They assume false and get mad when their assumptions aren't correct. Been a toxic relationship in this house that I lost everyone I could to trust to talk to IRL.
This describes me perfectly. I'm the only person in my family with Autism, so I'm frequently treated like the "defective reject", but I let them keep thinking I'm "not intellectually capable" so they lose interest in me and leave me alone. My family are the type of people who are only nice to others if they can get something out of them, which I'm completely against. Heavens forbid anyone point out their flaws...
My anxiety won't let me argue via text for fear of a massive miscommunication.
The younger generation will never know the satisfaction of slamming down a receiver on someone. Multiple times.
I love arguing over text, I can get my entire thought out without being interrupted and if I don't feel like being contradicted or am just had enough I don't bother reading their reply (sometimes ever) and I don't care if they read what I said (unless it is really important and then we will talk about it calmly in a day or two), I can then go to bed feeling totally superior in my own self righteousness until the next day when I remember I care about the person and may possibly own an apology.

Nah, I have this weird phenomenon where whenever something good happens, something equally bad happens later that same day to... sort of balance it out I guess? It's annoying and makes me dread good things bc I know something will ruin it. I've considered it's my mindset, and have now become a much more positive person in general but still happens. I've just accepted it at this point 😔
I say autism to make them feel bad edit: I do have autism, I'm not just making it up.
Someone made the mistake of asking me why I was angry all the time. We never saw him again. Others in the group were appreciative.

I get this alot. People think I'm grumpy but I have an extremely physically and mentally draining job. I'm in constant pain and stress, not in a bad mood at all....
I've told friends I have no expectation for them to respond to texts or calls immediately or ever. You got time to chat? Let's chat. Don't let me get in your way.
I'll straight up ask. I've gone on several 1st-2nd dates and it sort of ended there. I'll attempt to ask what, if anything, turned them off. Red flags, etc. Honesty is a common complaint, I don't get it.
I think a lot of people cover their real selves on the first few dates. Nothing wrong with that at all. If that's not you though, nothing wrong with that either. All that happens is you are not wasting time with someone who will be incompatible when you show your true self. I hated dating, as a lot of the time guys struggled to make it all the way through the first date without letting me know I was not what they were looking for. One guy gave up about 10 mins in, a small group at the bar took pity on me, one guy offered me the date right then. He found me just being me great, and he responded by being himself too. That was my last ever date, and we have been married about 15 years. Don't ask your dates how you can do better, but it might be worth asking your friends incase it's something you are not noticing - like picking incompatible people to date perhaps.

It's very rare, and even when it happens what are the actual odds both of you will meet someone else ok with you being good friends with an ex? (I have seen that work, but only when there are kids involved so friendship with an ex makes sense)

Pretty much everything in general.
Load More Replies...Same. I hate that some phones do the "read" thing. I don't need you to know that I'm ignoring you.
You can turn off that function in a lot of apps. You can't see if other people read something anymore then, but neither can they.
Load More Replies...It’s “where you at?”, pretty much like “where are you?”
Load More Replies...Yeah, check and make sure they're not around, looking at you, testing you with that question. Then text back that you're in a location impossible for them to get to.
I simply do not understand why people insist they need a hanging preposition at the end of a perfectly appropriate question. "Where are you?" is just fine. "Where you at?" is nails on a chalkboard.
It's even more difficult because you have to program it into your phone's dictionary. But I guess it's a generational thing that we're supposed to respect...
Load More Replies...I had to Google what "wya" means. Ugh. Inarticulate/Illiterate language even made it into our text acronyms. Sigh
