Dear Poll: Do You Ever Break the Tension With Laughter?
Dear Poll: Does Your Boyfriend Make You Laugh?
For me, humor isn’t just an important aspect of a significant other; it’s an absolute must. I need to be around someone who can make me laugh, both in the best of times, and also during the worst. I’ve come to realize though that not everyone shares my sentiments.
Dear Poll: Do You Consider Yourself Funny?
I love a good laugh — who doesn’t? — but while I’ve certainly said a few witty remarks in my day, I don’t consider myself a particularly funny lady. I have a great sense of humor, and I’m happy to be the brunt of a silly joke, but I won’t be the one delivering the punch line.
The How-To Lounge: Having More Fun
Whether we like to admit it, the stress and burden of daily life often gets in the way of having a little fun, and without fun, things can get boring and depressing. I’m a firm believer that happiness is the key to good health and a long life, so why not incorporate more fun into your life? To see my ideas on how to do just that, read more
Dear Poll: Are You a Nervous Laugher?
I have a very loud laugh that some say is contagious, so I guess I should feel lucky that I'm not a nervous laugher. When I say nervous laughter, I mean someone that giggles when they're uncomfortable, sad, or even angry — like at a funeral or when they are put on the spot at work. So what category do you fall in?

The Endless Benefits of Laughter
Dear Sugar
I am a type A person who gets stressed out often. Because I don't want to take any anti-anxiety medication, I try my best to do yoga at least a few times a week. Is there anything that I can do (preferably that takes a minute or less) when life just generally feels too overwhelming?
People Laughing at People Laughing at People
Those viral marketing campaigns are getting more and more creative. Skype, a free video-call service, schemed up a way to get people to engage with their product, pay a giggle forward, and put the laughter-is-contagious theory to the test. It's called the laughter chain.
Rock 'N Roll On the Floor With Laughter
What possesses Celine Dion to do AC/DC covers? I mean, she's got a beautiful voice, but classic rock 'n roll is not her genre. As one commenter put it, "Ah, the mind-shattering HORROR!"
Would You Ever Work as a Wingwoman?
We've all heard of wingmen, dudes who agree to talk to the friend of a woman who another dude is interested in. The wingman, for that night anyway, is supposed to be selfless, keeping the other friend occupied so his male friend can swoop in and get his girl.
Taken from military lingo to describe planes that flank fighter planes during serious missions (because, you know, getting the girl is a really serious military mission), I didn't realize you could ask a woman to do the same thing — until I read about an ad on Craigslist (where else?) procuring the services of a wingwoman for $30 an hour.
