The Quirks of Modern Life

Dave Laughter

Hey everyone! Great to see you all! You know, life is just like a video game. The only difference is, in my life, I can’t figure out how to get past level one! But I’m here to have some fun with you all.

So, technology, right? We trust our smartphones more than we trust our own brains. I mean, I check my phone for directions, but I can barely remember my own address. My phone knows me better than my mother! If I got lost, I could just hold my phone up like, 'Help! I’m here! Send a rescue team!'

And social media is a whole other level of awkward! Why is it that I can swipe left or right on an app to find love, but I still can’t make eye contact with someone in real life? My buddy once sent me a meme that said, 'You miss 100% of the hugs you don’t give.' So now when I see him, I’m like a football player going in for a tackle—hugs or nothing!

How many of you are trying to eat healthier? Yeah, I see you! But I’m telling you, the moment I decided to eat a salad, I realized I was still eating junk food... just with some lettuce on top! Next time I’m going to add a donut to my salad and call it a 'healthy choice.' You can’t judge me, at least the donut is organic!

But in the end, folks, we’re all just trying to figure it out, right? Life’s too short to be serious all the time. So I say, let’s take a page from the internet: let’s meme our way through the chaos, hug like we’re about to miss our bus, and eat cake like it’s a vegetable! Thank you, and goodnight!
