Even the most typical things can upset us. Sometimes it’s just a matter of chance and sometimes it looks like the universe wants to troll us. But the main thing to remember during hard times is to treat such moments with a little humor.

“Finally got my diploma.”

“The sound was just perfect before the secret was revealed.”

“Decided to rent this flat because of the huge TV.”

“My jelly donut had no jelly whatsoever.”

“The left cable works. The one to the right doesn’t.”
