50 Funny, Quirky and Very Human Status Updates

It hasn’t been a funny week. In fact, for some of my family it’s been a heartbreaking week. My first thought was to post something comforting. But then I remembered how much humor has consoled me during unbearable times. So, for those I love, and anyone else who simply needs a laugh, here are some funny, quirky, very human status updates.

More:

I thought I wanted a career, turns out I just wanted paychecks.

Never, under any circumstances, take a sleeping pill and a laxative on the same night.

I just discovered the purpose of shinbones: They’re devices for finding furniture in a dark room.

I’m never sure what to do with my eyes when I’m at the dentist. Do I close them? Do I stare at his face? Do I look at the ceiling? What’s the proper etiquette here?

I have all the money I’ll ever need – if I die by 4:00 p.m. today.

Google Maps really needs to start their directions on #5. Pretty sure I know how to get out of my neighborhood.

You can go anywhere you want if you look serious and carry a clipboard.

To err is human. To arr is pirate.

I feel like getting something done today, so I’m just going to sit here until that feeling passes…

Tip of the week: When going through airport customs and the TSA agent asks, “Do you have any firearms with you?” do not reply, “What do you need?”

I just read a list titled “100 Things to Do Before You Die.” I’m pretty surprised “Yell for help” wasn’t one of them.

I have an oven with a “stop time” button. It’s probably meant to be “stop timer,” but I don’t touch it, just in case.

When a fly or small bug lands on your computer screen, has your first reaction ever been to try and scare it with the cursor?

People think I’m too patronizing (that means I treat them as if they’re stupid).

If your relationship status says, “It’s complicated,” maybe you should stop kidding yourself and change it to “Single.”

I used to be good at sports. Then I realized that I could buy trophies. Now I’m good at everything.

“Dammit I’m mad” is spelled the same way backwards. Think about it.

Ever since it’s been brought to my attention that you can say Covid 19 to the tune of, Come On, Eileen, I’ve been unable to read it any other way.

Wife just told me that her birthday is tomorrow. Wow, like maybe more of a heads-up next time.

If you have ever sat on the toilet at work and wondered how long you can sit there before someone searches for you, the answer is 47 minutes.

Son: “Dad, there’s a monster in my room, can I sleep in here?” Dad: Look, it’s you he’s after, why make it my problem too.

2020: We aren’t allowed to go out in public. 2022: We can’t afford to go out in public.

Ladies, it’s time to start thinking about if the guy you’re dating has post-apocalyptic warlord potential.

    You are a man after my own heart. I truly believe that the only way to get through the mire and muck of life, is to laugh. If we lose the ability to chuckle, the light disappears from our very being.

    2 weeks ago I told the dental assistant that when her face was 2″ from mine it had taken ALL my strength not to stare into her eyes, just to freak her out.
