One of the greatest things about life is the unknown future that yet awaits to be uncovered. It moves, even when we stand still — it won’t stop, not even for a minute. As life throws a problem or two our way, finding humor in bad situations is the key to a good life. For this reason, situational humor is something of high value that few possess, but everyone should. Even if the problem is small, a good sense of humor will do more good than a dry one.

As problems pile up and start to soak into your everyday activities, it becomes harder to ignore them. For this reason, you need a great sense of humor that can act like a shield. Some react to a situation with a dry sense of humor. They see an uncomfortable situation and try to ignore it. But ignoring a problem only postpones it. To the rescue comes a dark sense of humor. The ability to turn a horrible situation into a joyful one isn’t the easiest one. But sometimes, when something is out of our control, remember the golden rule — it is what it is!

Laughter is the best medicine we have — a good old laugh will always be a solution to any problem. If you are in need of a good laugh, or want to cheer up a friend, you might want to take a look below at the bad situations people encountered and how relaxed they were about it. If a situation is relatable enough — be sure to upvote it. Also, comment down below if you would have reacted differently!

When one of my friends got divorced, we were all at the Court for support. She got out 5 minutes later, exclaiming to everyone in sight that she was indeed divorced and getting married took much longer (20 minutes) than getting a divorce.
