11 Dec VAT: Laughing in the face of pain
For pain or stress, the best remedy is laughing; works every time; no side effects; but can be addictive and highly contagious; not recommended while operating heavy machinery.
Last summer I closed a car door on my finger. WOW, painful; but the pain immediately disappeared when I started laughing at how stupid I was mindlessly talking with someone and not paying attention to closing the door.
