A group of friends of mine decided to do a quarantine - themed lip - sync battle online. They had to use items from around their houses as props. One of them used a broom as a guitar and another used a pillow as a microphone. The performances were so over - the - top and hilarious. It was amazing to see how they used their creativity to have fun during such a tough time.
I remember a story where a man was trying to do a serious work meeting on Zoom during quarantine. His kids were home and they kept running into the room making funny faces behind him. He was trying so hard to keep a straight face. Another funny thing was a woman who decided to redecorate her living room during quarantine. She painted one wall a bright pink but then realized it clashed horribly with the rest of the decor. She ended up with a living room that looked like a cotton candy nightmare. And there was a couple who tried to have a romantic dinner at home. But their dog kept stealing food from the table and they ended up chasing the dog around the house instead of having a nice dinner.
There was a couple who started a TikTok challenge during quarantine. They were doing all these crazy dance moves and challenges. Their videos were so funny that they got a lot of followers. It was a great way for them to pass the time and also share some laughs with others. They even got some of their neighbors to join in later.
Many people got creative during quarantine. A friend of mine started painting. She had never painted before but she found it very therapeutic. She painted the view from her window every day, and those paintings became a record of her quarantine life. It was amazing to see how she grew as an artist during that time.
The most memorable thing for me was that I reconnected with an old hobby - painting. I had not painted for years. But during quarantine, I found my old paintbrushes and started to paint again. It was so relaxing and it made the days pass more quickly.
In 2020, my local community organized a drive - by birthday parade for a 90 - year - old neighbor. The cars were all decorated with balloons and signs. But one car's balloons got loose and started flying all over the place. It was chaos but also really funny. It made the old man laugh a great deal.
One memorable one is about a man who left his beloved old hat to his parrot in his will. The parrot would then perch on the hat and cackle as if it knew it was now the owner of this special hat.
Well, there's a story where a person called 911 because their ice cream cone melted too fast. They were so distraught over losing their treat that they thought it was a major crisis. Another is when someone called because their cat was stuck on the roof, but the cat came down right as the firefighters arrived. It was hilarious.
A priest once accidentally tripped over the altar cloth while walking towards the pulpit. He managed to catch himself but not before making a very comical face. The whole church burst into laughter.
One memorable story is when LeBron James lost his headband during a game. He was still able to play at a high level without it, but the sight of him without his signature headband was quite funny. It was like he had transformed into a different kind of player for a moment.
Well, there's this story about a grandma who had a brooch that she thought was made of real emeralds. She passed it down to her granddaughter. When the granddaughter took it to be appraised, it turned out to be just green glass. But instead of being disappointed, they both had a great laugh about it and the brooch became a symbol of their family's funny little mistake.
