Reading a joke offers numerous benefits. It can instantly lift your mood by triggering laughter, which releases endorphins, the body’s natural feel-good chemicals.
This can reduce stress and enhance overall well-being. Jokes also stimulate cognitive functions as they often require quick thinking and comprehension. Sharing jokes can improve social interactions, fostering connections and easing conversations.
They can also provide a momentary escape from daily pressures, offering a brief mental break. Moreover, humor can boost creativity and problem-solving skills by encouraging unconventional thinking. In summary, reading jokes not only brings joy but also promotes mental, emotional, and social health.
Read the joke below:
A woman takes a lover home during the day while her husband is at work. Her 9-year old son comes home unexpectedly, sees them and hides in the bedroom closet to watch.
The woman’s husband also comes home. She puts her lover in the closet, not realizing that the little boy is in there already.
The little boy says: “Dark in here.”
The man says: “Yes, it is.”
Boy: “I have a baseball.”
Man: “That’s nice.”
Boy: “Want to buy it?”
Man: “No, thanks.”
Boy: “My dad’s outside.”
Man: “OK, how much?”
Boy: “$150”
Man: “Sold.”
In the next few weeks, it happens again that the boy and the lover are in the closet together.
Boy: “Dark in here.”
Man: “Yes, it is.”
Boy: “I have a Wilson infielder’s glove.”
The lover, remembering the last time, asks the boy: “How much?”
Boy: “$350”
Man: “Highway robbery. Sold.”
A few days later, the father says to the boy: “Grab your gloves, let’s go outside and have a game of catch.”
The boy says: “I can’t, I sold my ball and my glove.”
The father asks: “How much did you sell them for?”
The boy says: “$500”
The father says: “That’s terrible to overcharge your friends like that… that is way more than those two things cost. I’m going to take you to church and make you confess your greed.”
They go to the church and the father makes the little boy sit in the confession booth and he closes the door.
The boy says: “Dark in here.”
The priest says: “Don’t start that shit again, you’re in my closet now.”
