35 Posts That May Make You Laugh And Cry At The Same Time

Published 17 hours ago

The things happening around the world can be bleak enough to send anyone off into a pretty big downer if we dwell on it too long. War, violence, natural disasters, inept governments and more have been sucking the life out of people for quite a while. But one way we have learned to adapt to keep our chins up is by applying humour to these situations so we don’t spiral out of control.

The “Funny and Sad” community in particular is dedicated to keeping people in the loop about all the appalling things going on while making it more palatable so we don’t all just want to give up hope altogether. We’ve combed through their content to find the best posts that balance these two opposing emotions enough to give us a relatable experience, as you can see below.

Shanilou Perera

Shanilou has always loved reading and learning about the world we live in. While she enjoys fictional books and stories just as much, since childhood she was especially fascinated by encyclopaedias and strangely enough, self-help books. As a kid, she spent most of her time consuming as much knowledge as she could get her hands on and could always be found at the library. Now, she still enjoys finding out about all the amazing things that surround us in our day-to-day lives and is blessed to be able to write about them to share with the whole world as a profession.
