Humor is a useful tool in helping to cope with cabin fever during a lockdown. Jokes, memes, and funny one-liners engage people remotely and create a sense of social belonging.
Paul Lewis, the author of “Cracking Up: American Humor in a Time of Conflict,” believes that jokes amid the outbreak offer a real shelter. “People usually make jokes about everything, but when news narrows down and has this element of fear, jokes are a way of temporarily triumphing over and repressing it.”
Bored Panda contacted Jennifer Kahnweiler, a speaking professional and expert on introverts, about other useful tools to cope with cabin fever during the lockdown.
Jennifer Kahnweiler suggests focusing on some benefits even if adjusting to not having a routine is hard. “Sleeping a little later (if you don't have little ones) and staying in your pj's, even reading in bed” are among the luxuries that otherwise wouldn’t be possible.
Pretty sure it's not just America. In Australia we had fire, then flood, now this. Thanks 2020. My husband told me last yr that he felt like 2020 was going to be the start of something awesome. I'll make some PSA's next time he says that, so we can all prepare.
Kahnweiler assures us that a sense of humor does help to fight emotional uncertainty. “Watching stand-up comedians, funny Youtube videos, and those memes can really do a lot! In fact, it's important for our immune systems and brings introverts and extroverts together.”
Suddenly introverts are considered experts on the field of "How to keep yourself from dying of boredom."
The common belief is that introverts should handle the self-isolation way better, since they’re used to being alone.
But Kahnweiler tells us that it’s a stereotype because everyone, no matter their personality, needs human connection. “There are memes circulating on social media about introverts being happy they get to be away from people amid the Covid-19 outbreak. But introverts like people!”
When thinking about whom you can write or call, Jennifer suggests considering people who are living alone, are older, and find it hard to pick up the phone. She recalls the moment her introverted client reached out to her to say that “he appreciated knowing that someone is thinking about him.”
If you look to the right you will see a large group of toilette papyrus, these spectacular species are rarely seen these days especially in such large gatherings. I feel so privileged to be one of only a few people to have witnessed a sight like this in the last two weeks.
I think I'd take dried grasses and clover over creamed corn any day, tbh. Creamed corn is disgusting.
"The Ballad of Buster Scruggs," a very unique, original Netflix movie by the Coen brothers. A twisted, dark, hilarious, themed combination of six short films, it is one of the best movies of 2019.
My birthday is coming up and I couldn't be more pleased. This year I'm going to do what I always wanted to do on my birthday. Absolutely nothing.
"no. Hooman is home and that means u must appreciate me, your glorious kitty god"
Corona is forcing governments to do what they wouldn't do to fight climate change.
Me laughing with crohns pretending I'm not running out of time

Only 2 months, he’s been on vacation since the beginning of humans.
Coronavirus has screwed school up: ap tests are take home, keystones are cancelled, sats are delayed, graduation and prom are cancelled, and the teachers are basically unable to teach anything for the rest of the year because of mismanaged 'cyber school'
Europeans: I'll call in sick. Americans: If I don't go I get fired and I'll lose everything I own.
Haha. For those of you who don't get it, The Sun is a scumbag nationalist excuse for a newspaper in the UK. It's owned by Rupert Murdoch (excuse my filthy language).
I must be lucky coz I have 3 buildings I can go in. The house, the shed and the enclosed carport.
Schools are still currently open in Australia. They aren’t even closing a school after a student tested positive for Covid-19. They were at a school camp on Friday with roughly 60 people and on Saturday symptoms started showing. They got the results last night and the school didn’t feel the need to notify parents and the federal government doesn’t think closing the school is necessary. Everyone who came into contact with the child up to 24 hours prior should be tested and quarantined, same goes for the people who came in contact with the teacher that was diagnosed 3-4 days prior.
My dogs are currently enjoying isolation with me. They are getting the zoomies a lot more often admittedly (and I have a decent garden fortunately). I've got A virus, not THE virus but no-one's going to want to trust my word on that.
What do you do when you don’t live with your other half? This is minor I know, but a girl needs a hug sometimes you know?
You're lucky to have that many screens. Of course, they're fall over at 2 am, but...
A doctor, a nurse and an epidemiologist walk into a bar, and they all say GET OUT! GO HOME!
We need humor like this to get us through dark times. Gallows humor serves an important purpose. I pity everybody who lacks a warped sense of humor.
In my opinion I think people should worry about the corona virus but no so much as in filling your whole house with toilet paper and hand sanitizer, I saw a report even on two ladies with a full cart of tp and wouldn’t share with a woman who wanted to buy just one pack. Masks dont work as the cdc already said(yes I did my research on that) they slip through the cracks around it and the fabric and it only helps if your sick so other people don’t get it not the other way around. People are just freaking out way to much when they shouldn’t have to. The flu kills more people. I feel that stores should limit items per person so that everyone has equal share. When they run out they can come back and the stores keeping track of how often those people come in. I hope that this new cure there talking about that’s helped with other viruses before that Fauci the US disease expert will stop the panic. Any other sources other than the cdc.gov in my opinion are fake news. Take care. #coronacation
There werre 400 deaths on friday in Italy. 800 on saturday. So, like, maybe panic a little bit, but don't be a moronic tp hoarder.
