I haven't heard enough of that recently.
What with the election, everyone has been so depressed. Honestly, I can't say I'm happy about this. The opposite, in fact. But--please. The CB is a place to go when you need encouragement, a friend, or just a bit of cheer. And really-- if you put this into perspective, nothing'll happen for another two months, until he gets inagurated. Also, it's fine compared to the Great Depression, World Wars I and II, and even terrorist attacks. All of those are bad, and you know what America did? Survive. And learn from its lesson. But! *hem*
Also not the point of this thread.
Since I haven't seen nearly any of my buds (in real life or over the internet) smile, or joke today, I wanted to start a thread where you shared any funny stories, jokes, or anything else to make someone smile! Remember- even if only one person reads or comments on it, it's one person that you've made feel better.
I'll post a few of my own anectodotes once this posts.
(As a PS- I'm not saying we can't be worried. It's human to be afraid or sad. But that doesn't mean we can't balance it out with nice things, too. Like puppies. I love my dog, he's such a sweetheart. See? My dog made me feel better. Good job, Dex. *hugs him* Go hug your dog. If you don't have a dog, hug your cat. Or pet your bird or hamster or even little sibling.)

This morning our yard was covered with icy frost so I went out to snap a few pictures.
When I came back in my little sister was at the dinner table eating breakfast. I don't eat breakfast because I'm to lazy to get a bowl for cereal and for one. Don't really like cereal in the first place...
Anyway I came in and announced how cold it was outside to which my four year old sister replied.
"Did you see all the frosting on the grass?"

Here's a picture of my cat...I couldn't get her to take the catnip. She's much cuter than this, usually, though. Maybe I can get a picture of her upside down sometime.

My favourite quote of today (said to me and my friend): "Will you guys please stop nerding out about Hamilton?!?"

Some Random/Funny Things Said At School Out of Context(That were acually said!)
"I don't think killing an umbrella qualifies as murder." -me, during an Improv with my friend
"Does that taste like candle wax?" -I don't even know
"Cheater, Cheater, pants on fire!" -my same friend's brother who messes up the chant every time
"So if I already have no brain cells, breaking pencils on my head doesn't matter." -a boy in my class. *eye roll*
"Look, a ham!" -it was in a book of stupid word searches, and it's been an inside joke for like, three years now
"The mood candle says I'm stressed" -my teacher had a picture of this candle that supposedly changed color depending on your mood
"You look like a traffic cone." -another Improv
"John, you cannot run for Senator," -the same teacher with the mood candle, talking about the same boy who was breaking pencils on his head
"How did you get nail polish on your glasses?" -my friend
"The piccolo is a manly instrument!" -the same teacher who happens to play the flute and piccolo
So we were doing a unit on folk music and my music teacher said, "Have any of you heard the songs 'God Bless America' or 'If I Had A Hammer'?" And since no one in our class really likes this teacher, this boy whispers, "If I had a hammer I'd hit you over the head with it" it was mean but sort of funny at the same time.
"I'm allergic to people" -me
There's a boy in my class named Tyler and a while ago, people just started calling him Tyty for no reason. (We have some pretty weird nicknames in our class, such as Dameshan, T-mama, B-dubbs, T-Hahn, and Nathan Monts) so, my friend and I were talking to our art teacher (who was born and raised in China) and she was teaching us how to write our names in Chinese. So then, we somehow got to talking about how we nicknamed this boy Tyty and she told us that Tai Tai kind of means lady or weathly married woman in Chinese. Needless to say, we teased him about that for a while.
I can't think of anymore now. Hope these helped you cheer up!

I started laughing out loud at "The piccolo is a manly instrument"! Ha!
One of the things that makes me laugh the most is my dog, who's a Catahoula Leopard Hound. Constantly, whenever he's asking for food, or to go outside, or anything at all he'll make these ridiculous sounds. Just--imagine a foghorn, combined with a kitten mew and a mouse squeak. My family always has fun trying to imitate them when he does it.

Oh gosh, these made me laugh out loud. I want to know the story behind the stool one.
(November 16, 2016 - 9:38 pm)
LOL, Tyty.

Some more out of context things that were said at my school today-
"So, it was literally just like The Karate Kid but with roosters and entirely in Spanish"
"I've got the Pope in my locker!"
"How do you say 'you are a total loser' in Spanish?"
"That guy's mustache looks like a cheeto puff"
Yeah, our class is pretty weird, stuff like this gets said every day. (Note: we did not kidnap the pope!)

Even more random funny things said at my school
"Can we lock Jacob in a box again?"
"We're gonna have a pool in our bomb shelter, don't worry,"
"staircases are safe places"
"So is it like bowling turkeys or throwing turkeys or fun?"
"See, if terrorists drop bombs on us we're fine. If zombies attack us, that's another story."
"My alter ego's a phsycotic killer banana!"
That's all I have for now guys! And about the stool...
Okay, so basically a girl was on lying in the floor during a class, and somehow a stool managed to hit her in the face! We brought her to the nurse, who said she might have a scar. The whole "stool" thing has been an inside joke ever since"

Some of these are too funny! Here are some of my own I heard:
"Use a fish! It would be--our love is COD."
"You could literally fit my whole school into the country and have people to spare."
"Don't move broken chairs--thou shalt fall over."
"I feel hot and cold at the same time... am I dying?"
"I TOO AM GOING TO DON CEREMONIAL GARB AND HALLUCINATE VIVIDLY FOR A FEW HOURS!"

This isn't quite funny, but rather inspiring. It proves that music inspires us anywhere, including English class. :)
Anyway, so we were giving presentations a few days ago in English class, but at the end of the hour we didn't have enough time for another one, so one of my friends who's a tenor in choir pops in his earbuds and starts softly singing karaoke to "Hallelujah" with the lyrics by Leonard Cohen, since the boys' choir at our school sang that song last year. Another guy in choir sits in front of my friend and takes one earbud out and starts softly singing the bass part, I guess, since they harmonized most of the time. Then, I realized I knew the song, too, and softly sang the top part/melody, even though I didn't sing that song with them in choir last year. I didn't know the verses, so I only sung the chorus, but still. XD I could tell a few people were listening to us, including the teacher. It was so awesome and inspiring!
