Maybe I should have titled this one, bites of laughter, like, little bits, tiny nibbles, itty bitty morsels of humor.
But, I knew Laughter Bites would get your attention.
Laughter Bite #1
My good friend Danel sent me a video this morning called “Laughter, the Instant Vacation Movie“. The 3 minute cutsie-cutsie, warm and fuzzy piece is filled with humorous insights about life and includes photos of animals in all shapes and sizes, including a cute boxer dog and 2 bull dogs. Boxers Rule! (shameless plug for my Rosie)
If you want cute mixed with insights, this mini-movie could be for you.
My personal favorites (all of which I can personally relate) are:
Last night I dreamed I ate a ten pound marshmallow. When I woke up, my pillow was gone. – Tommy Cooper
Insanity doesn’t run in my family. It gallops. – Cary Grant
Inside me there’s a thin person struggling to get out, but I can usually sedate him with cupcakes. – Bob Thanes
Laughter Bite #2
Humor Etc.com recently posted some Wacky English Translations found on a travel web site. Here’s a short list of my favorites. My responses in italics.
Sexual innuendo abounds so…reader beware!
- An ad by a Hong Kong dentist: Teeth extracted by the latest Methodists. And I though only Presbyterians were dentists!
- Ad for donkey rides in Thailand: Would you like to ride your own ass? Self-ass riding? I wasn’t even sure that was possible, but yes, sign me up for that! Can I bring a camera?
- On a faucet in a Finnish restroom: To stop the drip, turn cock to right. he, he, he
OK - In the window of a Swedish furrier: Fur coats made for the ladies from their own skin. ouch, Ouch, OUCH!
- Tokyo bar: Special cocktail for the ladies with nuts. Wouldn’t that be a transvestite special? Or, an Addadictomy? I’m just askin’
- Acapulco hotel: The manager has personally passed all the water served here. Oh, gross. Note to self: NEVER visit Acapulco.
- A sign on the lion cage at a zoo in the Czech Republic: No smoothen the lion. We won’t touchen, stroken or feeden the lion either, thanks.
Laughter Bite #3
I love fun and irreverent bumper stickers. Here’s a couple that put a smile on my face and may end up on the bumper of my truck.
Why, yes. Yes it is!
Mooning. Funny. Classic. Free.
Gimme chocolate. 
Turn moments of stress into moments of smiles…in an instant.
My favorite bumper sticker. I’ve already got two of these on my truck. Get yours HERE.
Got some bites of laughter to share? Leave a comment. Love to hear from you!
Giggle On!
If you like this post, please share it. 
- a foolish laugh with a short catches of the breath or voice; laughter in an uncontrolled, silly or giddy way; to laugh repeatedly with short spasmodic sounds in a light manner.

Being a Correctional Officer does have its funny moments. I work in a minimum unit where the guys ,while being locked on the tier , can roam freely on the block during rec. Now one night as I was getting ready to do the 2300 hr count, I opened the main door and telled n”Count Time Gentlemen” like I always do, now the moon must have been full that night because because those guys were all hanging out in the hall, congregating and hanging out so to get their attention I said “Man , if I were to open up a dictionary to look up the term “F—ed Up”", I bet I that a picture of this tier would be on the page” Well the guys all locked in, I finished my count and went home. Well the next night an inmate came up to me and said to me “ya know what Officer, I was lying awake in bed about 3 am and thought about what you said….and then busted out laughing because that was the funniest thing I have ever heard in my entire life”
Well I was glad that I had made someone laugh that night and it occoured to me that in dealing with inmates, you have to be able to throw some humor in, it is important because by doing so, they see us as people, as human.

Hmm, I was just looking at some of the merchandise available on here and it made me think of something funny that happened to me in Wal-Mart last week. I was shopping for some boxer shorts (All I wear are boxers) and I saw a row of bikini underwear ….well for a moment (and people, please refrain from vomiting and if you must, run for the nearest toilet/watse basket) I imagined myself wearing a pair of them on the beach, no t shirt etc.
The thought was just absurd, I do not DO bikini trunks, never have and never will, I do not have the physique and even if I did, I wouldn’t because I’s feel naked…ughhh. It was funny to me , I’m just not the kind of guy who wears those things….I have seen people who do and who do NOT have the physique , if it was a joke its hilarious, if not…then WTH???

Mmmm. Those were indeed delicious little bites of laughter. I never get tired of inappropriately translated signs. I definitely have enough padding that, if I put some wheels on it, I could ride my butt at least down the street.
