Joseph Addison declared “One should take good care not to grow too wise for so great a pleasure of life as laughter.” Do you know a lot of your coworkers in your office might think there to old or wise to take a moment to laugh while there at work. This doesn’t sound like good office behavior but we can fix it with good clean jokes that you can use without breaking any office rules.

If many of you were asked “What is a joke?” Would you be able to directly answer the question? Most of us would probably answer this question with a joke. Seems like a joke isn’t quite something you just hear but experience instead – the experience in most cases called laughter. Now some of you are thinking that every time you heard a joke you didn’t always experience laughter. This maybe because the jokes was crude or not crude enough depending on what your preference is. If your like me most crude jokes are offending whether I laugh or not. But not to worry there are many resources out there for less crude jokes referred to as clean jokes as opposed to the opposite called dirty jokes.

Now we can also take a look at humor. What is humor you ask? Humor is an emotion you feel maybe when there is something funny happen or even when see some thing happen and laugh at it even if its not funny. This is called finding the humor. Just like jokes different types of humor can be clean or dirty.

Why do we categorize them clean and dirty? Well the are lots of reasons but the most obvious reason is clean jokes normally fall into the G to GP rating area that are safe for a young audience. Why do we need clean jokes? Clean jokes are important because everybody needs a laugh sometimes. In some places such as work or family oriented gatherings dirty jokes are viewed as inappropriate.

The great thing about finding good clean jokes is that you can share them with other people without the fear of offending them in any way. In fact you may just be able to put a smile on each of their faces. The next time you find a great clean joke pin it up in your office or e-mail to all of your friends and family.




Watch Music Videos for Great Entertainment

Paul Zayer asked:


Young people today have so many ways to spend their free time, it can be overwhelming. When I was a teenager I devoted most of my time with my friends, and I was always making time to watch music videos. In fact, a lot of my time spent with friends was dedicated to MTV. When we weren’t viewing the station we were talking about what we saw or what we would like to watch next. Looking back now I can not believe I lost so much time, but I remember it made me happy so I guess there is something to be said for that. In any case, at that time in my life I could not envisage not watching MTV all the time, and now I could not tell you where it is on my cable lineup.

My friends and I could watch music videos so often that we could tell you every little thing that happened in the video. This was the time of the eighties hair groups, and there was always one guy in each band that we were so much in love with, though it was rarely the same guy for each of us. We would watch music videos far into the night, and would eagerly wait for a new release. Thinking back, I recognize there are worse things I could have done with my time.

Although I do not watch music videos on MTV any more, my husband turns on some videos once in a while. We might view some new materiel, and we could also watch music videos from good old time. It’s almost embarrassing to watch them today, as it reminds me of how crazy I was about it. I look at the guys that I found so adorable back then, and I do not understand what I saw in them. I don’t watch music videos any more, but if they are on and something good comes on I don’t mind going down memory lane.

For the teenagers of today, there are a lot of methods to watch music videos. MTV is still there, although I believe it is a joke any more. It’s become almost a parody of itself. If you are sick of the MTV programming like I am, you may find a different fine place to watch music videos. Many singers now put their videos up online so that you can watch them there. They do it for promotional reasons, much like the reasons they are played on TV music stations. So it seems there is a time for everything in life. Enjoy the present.


CD Mohatta asked:


Heard any good jokes lately? I sometimes ask people this, and do you know how they often answer? “Oh, I can never remember jokes!”

That used to be me. I used to never remember a joke. In fact, you could tell me the same joke over and over and I’d never remember the punch line until you got there. At least I got more than one laugh out of it.

But I felt a little left out. I wanted to tell jokes, too. Jokes are a way of making a person smile. It’s a way of sharing with each other. If you tell a joke well, they’ll remember you with a smile.

I assure you, you can remember jokes. If you can remember a story, you can remember a joke. And you do remember some stories, don’t you? Do you remember Hansel and Gretel, or Pinocchio, or The Three Musketeers, or Star Wars? If you remember any stories you can remember a joke, for a joke is just a short story with a funny end.

And just like with a story, you don’t need to remember the joke exactly in order to retell it. Here is a secret: usually good joke-tellers are changing small details of the joke — either to make it better — or because they don’t remember it exactly how it was told to them.

So here is what you can do to learn how to tell jokes. Begin with short jokes:

Patient: “Doctor, I have a terrible problem! I can’t seem to remember things I have just said.”

Doctor: “When did you first notice the problem?”

Patient: “What problem?

Now immediately look away or close your eyes and retell the joke out loud to no one. Then, all you have to do is call a friend and tell the joke. Try to do it soon. Tell the same joke this afternoon or tomorrow to someone else. Keep telling it. You remember it better with each retelling. You might even change it a little and make it better.

It’s No Joke, Laughter is Awesome Medicine!

Chad Ferguson asked:


You go right ahead! Laugh and cackle to the point of losing your breath! Laughter has enormous amounts of health benefits ranging from affecting diabetes to lowering risks of heart attacks and everything in between!

In this modern world that we live in, full of medicinal remedies and medical breakthroughs, who would ever dream that something as simple as laughter could induce such amazing benefits to your health that could rival highly scientific compounds found in drugs of today?

The idea that laughter may have some serious benefits to our health may have been what spurned on many scientific research projects pertaining to the benefits of laughter on our bodies. Over the years, countless experiments have concluded with scientific data that laughter has one of the most astounding benefits for your health. We have heard about the positive impact animals and clowns have had on nursing home and terminally ill children. Scientists have taken that idea a step further. Experiments have been conducted on such things as type II Diabetes which is an increasing problem for many Americans today. A study done in Japan at the Foundation for Advancement of International Science, Bio-Laboratory, found that laughter helps regulate gene expression to help control type II Diabetes. This is a huge discovery. This means that laughter has such a homeopathic effect on even the gene expression on our DNA that perhaps if we were a happier sort the gene that causes type II Diabetes may possibly never be expressed. Granted, it will likely not take the place of insulin therapy, but it may be key in helping to prevent the disease.

Studies also suggest that laughter positively affects rheumatoid arthritis by affecting the level of the condition as well as psychological benefits in controlling stress and stress related conditions. Perhaps the biggest discovery, published by S. Karger AG, Basel, is that laughter is now being proven to alleviate some of the lasting effects of heart attacks such as less medication and fewer repeat attacks with humor therapy of just thirty minutes per day. Can you imagine the impact?

Go ahead and laugh. Point and giggle, do it with pride and do it for your health. You may be preventing Diabetes when you cackle aloud. You could be keeping yourself from having a heart attack or stroke when you belly laugh to the point of tears. It’s ok! It will be contagious and soon everyone around you will be laughing too. Life can sometimes be serious and tiring, but if you look around and can draw some laughter out of what may seem mundane you could possibly be helping your health. Learn a new joke and tell it to everyone you know no matter if you are a good joke teller or not! Join a Laughter Yoga class at your local Y’ even! Go ahead, laugh! Your health can truly depend on it!


Should We Have More Fun?

Posted on 10 Jan 2010 In: Humor
petar1980 asked:


You probably don’t know people with no difficulties and hardships, and thats most likely because there aren’t many, as our ways of life make us sad and depressed at times. There are many great ways to handle boredom, but every single person has it’s own finest way, which would not work as well for other people.

Now days, the globe has changed, and embraced more modern ways of having fun, we have almost replaced the great old book with the more up to date e-books, and instead of just telling jokes and imagine them happen, we have all the funny clips.Years ago, no one could have said, what will surely await us when it comes to new ways of having fun, now days it is pretty obvious that high speed internet has taken the main role in the area of fun, as it represents the easiest way of getting some quality fun.

Obviously it could be easier if, every now and then, we could just pretend we don’t have a single problem and just lighten up and enjoy, living the best way we could, but reality doesn’t work like that. There are a lot, of us, who, when we feel gloomy, weary or just like doing nothing, love to spend some time on those websites, with various humorous stuff, such as jokes or videos.I love Short funny Jokes.

Enjoying those sites is most likely one of the cheapest and the most easiest ways of having fun, without a fear you’ll get addicted to it, nor that you’re throw your money as they’re without charge. The whole point is that we should have more fun and that we let many things that happen bother us, especially when we could not do a thing about them.

In place of worrying too much, we should spend some more time, with our family and friends, as those are probably the only rememberings we will still cherish and hold them dear.In other words, we should enjoy our lives to the max.


Timothy Dunne asked:


What do you do in the first five minutes of a face-to-face sales call? Do you take make small talk before you get down to business, or do you push through and get right to the ‘real’ meeting?

This article discusses how you use those first few moments of downtime; time often absorbed by walking to the prospect’s office, booting up a laptop, hanging up coats, or waiting for another party to arrive. One of the key objectives for a meeting with a new prospective client is to build some rapport. The first five minutes are precious. So let’s break down the meeting start, and give some suggestions for making that informal time useful.

Personal touch points to follow up on are as useful as business reasons.

The lifeblood of sales is meeting with new, potential clients. The goal of a first meeting is to walk away with a list of authentic reasons – personal and business – to follow up with the contact. But it’s difficult to take an authentic interest in someone if you don’t know anything about them. The opening five minutes is an opportunity to generate that interest. It would be awkward to ask, in the middle of a meeting, about that trophy on the top shelf. Better to use this startup time to uncover more about your client as a person, discover things about them that are interesting to you, and disclose related interests about you that might be interesting to them.

Let’s look at a couple of different situations and consider how to meet our objectives: to create a connection with a future client, to learn something about them that will allow for personal follow up opportunities, and to open the door to some genuine interest in each other as people.

Scenario 1: You have some data coming into the meeting, and thus you can ask them about something in which they have an interest.Ideally you enter a meeting like this with some information. The internet provides opportunities today to discover interests a person has that may be related to, but are outside of, work. If a search turns something up, ask about it.

“I saw your picture with your president and his quote on behalf of homeless veterans. In what ways do you support that cause?”

Or better, “I saw your time in the Tampa triathlon. You came out of the bay in the top 20. Impressive. Tell me about that!”

These are better discussion openers than the weather, or your missed connection at O’Hare airport. It’s better because you are listening for mutual interest and follow up opportunities. Depending on the answers there are a myriad of possible touch points that a brief chat about a hobby or a charitable interest can create. For example, some follow up ideas that could come from the answer to the above questions.

A good luck email before their next triathlon, A donation to the charity they support, An article about yoga for swimmers, A coupon to the local triathlon equipment store.

Think ahead about the possible topics you’ll ask about before the meeting starts, and while you’re listening, note what you learn so you can use that information to create authentic follow up touch points.

Scenario 2: You have no information.Let’s say a Google search turned up nothing. You have lots of corporate level company news, but nothing interesting about the individual. Here are a couple of options:

Strike up a conversation with the receptionist in the waiting room about the local sports team. “Do people here like the Patriots? Is this a sporty place? Do you have a softball team, a basketball league? Does John (your prospect) have an interest in any sports?” If the meeting takes place in your prospect’s office, look at the pictures or artwork on the wall. If you see them standing in front of the Eiffel Tower, the temples at Ankor Wat, Mt. Everest or Cape Canaveral, ask about the photograph. You might discover a fan of Matisse, a travel junkie, an avid mountain climber or a rocket hobbyist.

Scenario 3: No pictures on the wall? No informed assistant?A question that’s professional yet personal, and often fruitful: “How long have you been working here?”

A recent hire? Ask where they were before. You may turn up a mutual industry connection. A colleague in common, especially someone you respect, is a great connection to bring to the surface. Long time employee? Ask what they like about the company or the area. Ask about the regional weekend getaway destinations. Ask about anything that invites your natural curiosity. And if you stumble across something you both have a passion for, even better, disclose that about yourself.

Informal is good.If you can build enough rapport that the whole meeting stays in this informal conversational space, even better. Keep your meeting relaxed and not a presentation or formal Q&A, and the result is often a conversational, fluid dialog. It mirrors a smooth first five minutes. One investment banker tells about a meeting he had with a client, a CFO of a large finance company. He described this CFO as a virtual ‘devourer’ of salespeople.

“He could pick apart a presentation. Any aggressive assumptions, or worse, math error, would be quickly revealed and thrown back in the salesperson’s face like a cake with icy frosting. Insightful, aggressive and strictly no-nonsense, he was the bar by which I measured my preparation for a sales call. One Friday I met him in his offices for a scheduled meeting and he was, for him, more relaxed than usual. I asked him a question about a piece of news that I thought might impact his business. He agreed that it was a concern, and I proposed a few thoughts I had on the subject. From there the conversation just flowed. I never once opened my laptop to show him the presentation I’d prepared; standard protocol in our industry. Yet, in our dialog we covered every item I had in that presentation. We just did it conversationally. It was the best meeting, and the most rapport, I had ever had with him. All because I endeavored, and succeeded, in keeping the meeting informal.”

Aim for an opening dialog that starts light andgentlygets down to business and you’ll find you went to a meeting and a conversation broke out.

The first five minutes is the time to find out about who your prospective client is as a person. See if you share a mutual interest or view of the world. Simple personal connections can be more influential in whether a prospect becomes a client than a good product or service fit. Because put simply, people prefer to work with people they like. Knowing something about someone is a prerequisite for enjoying their company. So use the first five to find out about them and to disclose about yourself, and let that lead to a relaxed dialog.

And remember it’s a two way street. Your client has an interest in finding out a little about you as well. So, have a few possibilities in mind and then let your natural authentic curiosity come out.

Or, you can always tell a joke…


Software Testing Jokes

Posted on 10 Jan 2010 In: Humor
Preston Redlon asked:


The field of Software Testing can be boring at times and a bit of humor is always nice. Software Testing Jokes is a collection of jokes, anecdotes, quotes, related to software testing and testers. Software testing is not a very glamorous job and not very dignified too.

However, software testing is a crucial phase in any software development life cycle and whoever underestimates its benefits has lost much.

Developers (well, not all) ***** a lot of jokes about software testers, upfront and at the back, and sometimes they can hurt but a true software tester is undaunted and moves on with his work and life.

The collection of jokes exemplifies the perspectives people have about software testers and the perspectives software testers, some exaggerated and some no t so true. But a hearty laugh does one good, always.

One classical Joke:

Question: How many testers does it take to change a light bulb?

Answer: None. Testers do not fix problems; they just find them.

Signs That You’re Dating A Tester

Your love letters get returned to you marked up with red ink, highlighting your grammar and spelling mistakes. When you tell him that you won’t change something he has asked you to change, he’ll offer to allow you two other flaws in exchange for correcting this one. When you ask him how you look in a dress, he’ll actually tell you. When you give him the “It’s not you, it’s me” breakup line, he’ll agree with you and give the specifics. He won’t help you change a broken light bulb because his job is simply to report and not to fix. He’ll keep bringing up old problems that you’ve since resolved just to make sure that they’re truly gone. In the bedroom, he keeps “probing” the incorrect “inputs”.

You will relate to these jokes better if you are a Software Tester.

How Do I Report a User For Posting a Hateful Comment About Me in Another Video? ,I have Windows Media Player is it possible to watch You Tube videos on my Media Player ?One of my friends did a spoof video of me that I liked. It was all in fun. However, this one guy I’m fed up with posted this about me in a spoof: “great job i **** john marine he is a *** and nigger” -from “TheJOHNHATER”If I suspect that someone is making fun of me in another video from another YouTube channel, how do I report this?

It’s always best to ignore and delete harassing comments, flag and otherwise ignore harassing videos, and block the offensive user. Many haters do it for the response and it’s best not to give them the satisfaction. Using friend lock for comments also helps. You can do this via the edit channel function (on the old channels) or by clicking the little edit link at the upper right of your comments box for the new format, and you can also set individual videos to friend lock in your individual video settings. If they can’t comment and don’t get a response, they’ll generally move on.

If they’re following you to other people’s pages and videos, you may reduce their ability to follow you by adjusting the activities you share here:For those of you who don’t know how to do this, follow these steps:1. Take a look at the embed code (see below). In bold you’ll see “YourChannelName”. This is where you’ll insert your YouTube username.2. Delete “YourChannelName” and replace it with your actual YouTube username.

The first rule of handling a potential Internet revolt (whether justified or not) is to respond FAST. Whenever criticism builds, respond loudly and clearly to your users that you’re listening, interested, and willing to explore changes, and revolts will be quelled immediately.

In my humble opinion you’ve done almost everything wrong here. After 57 thousand angry comments on the blog, 9 thousand angry comments on the announcement video, dozens of “anti-beta” YouTube channels and online petitions against the change scattered all over the Internet, your response has been deafening silence, and the help page still promises a July 15th “forced migration” date. It’s completely unapparent whether or not anybody at YouTube has noticed the commotion. So what happens? The pitchforks are out, the voices are still getting louder and angrier and the ASCII art on the blog is getting bigger and more desperate. Some users commented they had flagged the video as “promotes hatred or violence”, and it wasn’t a joke.

YouTube, I can’t overstate how badly you’ve handled this. For such a huge site you ought to have something resembling a clue how to listen to and interact with your users! The single thing you didn’t do wrong is that you (apparently) haven’t censored any criticism. Thank goodness, or everyone would have gone ballistic. You got that right by accident though, because actually it’s completely typical for responses to the YouTube blogs to be ignored.Even if you respond now, damage has already been done. Users incensed by the lack of response have probably already gone to their forums and chatrooms all over the web and posted comments along the lines of “YouTube ****. They keep making stupid changes and don’t listen to their users.” Because as long as you aren’t listening, we’ll tell anyone who will.

This doesn’t reflect well on Google either. If there is ever a major revolt against a Google change like this, it looks like you/Google will be completely incapable of handling it. How can you expect to control a billion angry web surfers?While I do sort of look forward to the potential fun and chaos of a massive Internet-wide revolt against Google, I suggest you get a clue. YouTubers have raised big objections to the design of the new channels, aggrandized by the fact that social website users will generally resist and reject major change to their pages, whether they’re improvements or not. It’s like getting up and finding someone switched your car for a different (newer) model overnight, while losing your toolkit and personally chosen seat covers (analogy to the channel backgrounds, etc). You’d feel indignant, right?

Finally: I *HATE* the new channels. They’re a functional and asthetic regression in almost every way. A few users prefer them, but because of the complaints almost no-one thinks the change should be forced like it is. You should help the angry users because their anger won’t go away. It’ll be hidden for a while, but it will come flooding back at a later date the next time there’s a problem.

I’ve seen many of you discussing that you’re having trouble downloading your uploaded videos (to MP4). The majority of you mention that the “Download to MP4″ button sometimes doesn’t appear next to your videos, and so you’re unable to download your video.
