World Laughter Day is an annual event celebrated on the first Sunday of May. The day is dedicated to promoting laughter as a universal language of peace and understanding. Laughter has been scientifically proven to have numerous health benefits, both physically and mentally. It reduces stress, boosts the immune system, and improves mood. In addition, laughter is a great tool for bringing people together and breaking down barriers between different cultures and societies.

What is World Laughter Day? 

 The idea of World Laughter Day was first proposed by Dr. Madan Kataria, founder of the Laughter Yoga movement. Laughter Yoga is a unique concept that combines yoga breathing techniques with intentional laughter to create a joyful and uplifting experience. The first World Laughter Day was celebrated in 1998 in Mumbai, India, and since then, it has become a global phenomenon.

On World Laughter Day, people come together in public spaces to laugh, play games, and have fun. The day is celebrated in over 100 countries around the world, with events ranging from small gatherings to large-scale festivals. The goal is to spread the message of laughter and its positive impact on society.

A guy is brought back to his new girlfriend’s flat after a night out. While she goes into the kitchen to fix a drink, he has a snoop through her bedroom drawers. The first drawer he opens has skimpy nurses uniform, the second has a police women’s uniform and the third has a playboy “bunny girls” costume. When she comes back with the drinks, he says,  “Sorry, I have to go!”

”Whatever for? What’s wrong?” She asks. He looks towards the drawers, somewhat disappointed, and shakes his head.
