Being a huge fan of
laughter and humor in general, I love silliness.
Wit and brainy amusement
have their place, as do slapstick and punny revelry. But on any given
day, after a long day at work or in thought, I enjoy winding down
with some silly shows that give me the giggles.
You do
not need to be in the company of other people to laugh aloud!
Laughter is perfect at
almost any time. It exercises the muscles and organs withing
the abdominal area, releases endorphins and dopamine into the system,
helps you relax while relieving stress and feels great. The
Japanese even invented at-work laughter clinics! In the USA, there
are hospitals and medical schools promoting and encouraging laughter
as medicine to complement traditional allopathic therapies. How
fabulous!
Here is a short list of
what silly shows currently make me guffaw and snort and chuckle till I have
tears actually running down my face:
30 Rock
{chock full-o-priceless characters- I Love them all}
Eastbound And Down
{like a toilet you can quote}
Louie
{acerbic yet palpable}
And the micro-sized silly movie
list, those which never fail me, no matter how cruddy a day I may have had:
The Big Lebowski
{existential hero story}
Trading Places
{feel good tale of reversal}
Blades of Glory
{improbable drivel/amazing crap...priceless}
Why not
counterbalance the stresses of life with a laugh or two?
