Greetings and salutations Hivers. Today I thought we'd do another You Should Laugh More post. Today no funny videos like I usually do for these YSLT posts, but I want to do a sequel to my meme post from a few weeks ago. As I said in that one, I pop on to Facebook once every few weeks both to catch up on family news but also to see all the memes. Besides political bickering, memes does seem to be about all you find on FB these days. Well, at least on my FB wall. So that's what I use it for.

Anyway, before we get to the funny memes...

Research has shown that laughter is good for us. It has all kinds of health benefits. Despite most of us knowing this, none of us laugh enough. Yeah, I know, being an adult is tough, and furthermore there is a lot of grim stuff happening in the world. These things may be true, but that just is all the more reason for trying to get a little laughter into our lives.

Someone might want to tell them...

You know, my introduction to this scene was actually not the film, but the Simpsons episode mocking the film. Didn't ruin the movie, for what it's worth.

You know, I never thought about how the other trolley's looked at this. Wait—is it still a meme if it's just a comic stolen from the New Yorker...? I'm going to say yes.

Another meme question.... is it a meme if it just finds a funny situation from a talk show and transcribes it? Hmm.... why not!

One of these days...

That would be a very very odd tan.

Roundabout is fair play.

Don't tell Lasse.

For those in the dark, snow in early Hollywood was often actually asbestos.

What happens when politics and memes meet... on, I think we already saw that meeting a few above. Nevermind; carry on.

Montana is kinda creepy when you think about it.

Less a meme, and more of an amazing fact—and view. The Pacific Ocean is kind of large.

It was wood paneling as far as the eye could see.

Not the best idea in the world... But probably a tasty one.

You can't stop it.

And we'll end with this. Not a meme, but an amazing painting from Alex Ross.

So what do you think? Did any of them make you laugh or were they just stupid? Let me know your thoughts in the comments!
