Okay, so laughter is the best medicine and humor is the best antidote for anger, right?

Here are three comments from readers that caught our attention!

• “from my grandmother after I’d spent over an hour getting my hair done for a cousin’s wedding: “Well, they made your hair pretty, but they didn’t make you pretty.” Before my brother’s wedding she said ‘You may never be beautiful, but you’ve got a nice face.’ (hello, backhanded compliment…)  And then she complains that people get offended too easily!

  Mom: Oh, dinner. Did you drink?
  Me: Yeah, I had two cocktails.
  Mom: Were you drunk?
  Me: No….”

• “My mom (to my sister) regarding my choice of a strapless wedding gown and my very large upper back tattoo: ‘I don’t think Jesus would want to see that. Maybe we can get her a nice cardigan.’” - appleblossom
