I saw this on a social media site last night. If you really want to laugh go to google maps-get directions-for the starting point
put Japan. Then for the ending destination put China. Look at number 43 and try not to die laughing! It also was hilarious from my hometown in the USA to China-only 38 days to get there including kayaking 2000 plus miles across the Pacific Ocean!

Oh goodness- that's just terrible. I'm so sorry for your loss. Big hug to you and your family.
Candy Boots web site of vintage 70's Weight Watcher's recipe cards is hilarious:

Then there's Failbook, oh, and Cakewrecks.com
This is probably the cutest thing I've seen all day:

I'm so sorry, Christine- I hope you're able to heal and carry your love for him with you always.
Laughter does the heart good. Those weightwatchers recipe cards made me laugh and i subscribe to cakewrecks. I also love lolcats and loldogs (icanhascheezburger.com ihasahotdog.com). Regretsy is also really funny. I also like danbo and:

Eric and I both got a good laugh over that one. That was great! I can just see a jet-ski rental station on the coast for just this reason

Oh Christine, I am so sorry about your dog
This is so old, I am sure everyone has seen it, but I could watch it a million times and it would still make me smile:

Also if you search for baby eating lemon on youtube you cannot fail to be amused.

I've seen that video dozens of times over the years since it happened, and it never fails to make me tear up because it's so incredibly sweet and unexpected. I mean, this is a lion, a big ferocious lion, so excited to be reunited with his "human family" after a few years in the wilderness. It's absolutely amazing to me.

Oh, Christine, I'm so very sorry for your loss. Losing a pet is one of the worst experiences ever.
I was wracking my brains trying to think of a funny, but the only one I could come up with is a little risque. Hopefully it will sneak by our mods, and if this offends anybody.....I am truly sorry, no offense meant.
An old friend sent me this:
*Men will never totally satisfy women until they grow a chocolate penis that ejaculates money!*
Hmmmm......
