Last night at dinner BabyMidlo asked if it is true that for everytime

[Midlodemocrat]

you laugh you add ten minutes on to your life. My husband, the born again :eyes: says, Yes, but only if you aren't laughing at someone.

Me: Right. If you laugh AT someone it adds twenty minutes to your life.

I'm going to Hell.

1. It's where all the party people go, anyway!

:party::toast:

3. laughing at someone takes 10 minutes off their life

because it makes them sad

[Midlodemocrat]

4. Right, and ADDS twenty minutes to mine

because it makes me laugh.

[Parche]

5. I always laugh At

Matcom.....so how many minutes do i have added? :hi: :popcorn:

[Redstone]

6. I'll be going there right with you, because I thought your answer was hilarious.

And I'd add, THIRTY minutes if you alugh at yourself.

[matcom]

7. drugs or alcohol?

your hubby's born againness

[Midlodemocrat]

8. I wish it were one of those.

It's the born again that we make fun of. :puke:

[matcom]

11. oh i'm so sorry

does he thump loudly?

[Midlodemocrat]

16. Only when I hide his cardiac meds.

[no name no slogan]

9. Aisle seat or window?

And as a good friend of mine once said, we're not laughing AT you, we're laughing NEAR you.

[Rabrrrrrr]

10. If you laugh at them AND they cry, you get the 20 minutes. If they don't cry, you only get 15.

Sorry, but that's the rule.

If you're laughing at someone - and in this case, it could only be a born-again Republican, because it's the only genre that would do this - who claims family values and then gets caught in a gay prostitute/black prostitute/pedophile tryst with drugs and/or some other anti-family-values activity and you laugh at them AND then later you laugh at them while they cry on national TV while their family stands next to them looking all holier-than-thou supportive with those empty Stepford-wife facial expressions, then you get 200 points.

2007 was a good year for points. I think I earned about 2000, just from Republican Super Christians.

:rofl:

[orleans]

19. what if you laugh so hard YOU cry? that should add at least a day or two. n/t

[flvegan]

12. I treat it like multi level marketing. If you laugh at someone, AND get others to also

laugh at them, you get a cut of their minutes.

[Fleshdancer]

18. you make sense. I'll believe that.

What else you got? If you can think of a good religion to start, I'll totally be your Tom Cruise...couch jumping and all! :D

Deal?

[Mrs.Matcom]

13. Ok, so matcom & I will

save you a seat at our bar in Hell! We'll even have your name engraved on a nice brass plaque mounted to the seat! Of course DS1 will be keeping it warm for you until you arrive!! :hug:

[Canuckistanian]

14. Yes, but you're going to Hell 20 minutes later

Or quite a bit later, in my case.

[Kutjara]

15. I'm confused.

Are you saying there are some forms of laughter that aren't directed at other people? Where's the fun in that?

[sasquatch]

17. You poor child, see what living in Virginia has brought upon you

Your husband is a fundy, your daughter seeks the embrace of a older man and boy midlo is getting wedgies in the hallway at school. Do you see what your ways have wrought?
