FSTDT Happiness Generator
« on: January 23, 2012, 02:02:12 pm »
So, the forums of Cracked.com have a thread called the Happiness Generator.  It's a thread that exists purely for encouraging thoughts, facts, and the like.  I figured we could use something like it, and so I'm posting this thread.  So, here's what I'm looking for in this thread:

1. Real, encouraging news stories.  Researchers find beer cures cancer, police save puppy from tree, that sort of thing.

2. Jokes.  Puns, knock-knock jokes, traditional set-up to punch-line jokes.  Short and quick, and either very good or very bad.

3. Happy pictures or videos.

And I'm sure someone's thinking of it, so let me nip this in the bud.  I don't want to see anyone posting anything dark and disturbing for the shock value.  It's not that funny, and you look like a jackass.  Just positive stuff here.

All right, I'll start.

(The joy starts at 1:27)

This song always makes me happy. It's just an upbeat song about Robert Plant and his doggeh.

Guys, this is getting creepy. Can we talk about cannibalism instead?

I love that song, and the video, and the band. And the braids.

You'd probably like this, Hades. Especially the last song of the 3 songs, Busted Bicycle.

Pretty much any album by The Moody Blues.  They're so full of happy/hope that some people just can't take it.  Luckily I'm one of the ones who can, and really like them.  They're good for a bout of depression when it raises its ugly head in my life.

As for a good joke, just look at my sig.

Heh, I thought I was the only person left who listens to/loves the Moody Blues. And just try explaining them to a stranger. It's almost impossible. xD

"So what genre are they?"

Uh... all of them? None of them? They are the Moody Blues.

Thou hath received a Moody Fan EXALT!

We're not the only ones left, though I have to admit surprise when I find another fan amongst the tangles of the interweb in a non-MB centered website.
Great for depression flare-ups aren't they?

They're certainly a great mood equalizer for me; they're also great for long car trips. :)

Gives Me Hope was way better before it got filled with people saying "I am getting on alright in my relationship and the fact it is not a trainwreck gives me hope and I need to tell the whole fucking world about this"
Oh look it's me.
