Chuck PalahniukEverything is funnier in retrospect, funnier and prettier and cooler. You can laugh at anything from far enough away.
About This Quote
If you are looking to laugh at something, think about it from the other person’s point of view. If you can take a negative and turn it into a positive, look at it from their perspective. The more distance we put between the situation and ourselves, the funnier and prettier and cooler it becomes. Anytime we can see the humor in something we experienced, we tend to laugh more easily.
