> When is the last time you laughed so hard with friends you couldn't breathe?

2 weeks ago in Oaxaca with some friends. We were at dinner and one (a guy) mentioned the Mormon purity defying practice of soaking which sparked confusion from the other (a girl). So he explained it in Mandarin so the others in the restaurant wouldn’t understand. It’s not a language I speak but watching her face told me everything I needed to know.

Last time I laughed like that with friends I was probably 18 or 19. That was 40 years ago.

Damn dude, I (truly) feel for you. It's increasingly rare for me too, but it's so healing. If you're comfortable sharing, whereabouts do you live? What are your political inclinations? (The latter I ask because it radically influences what you find funny, not because it matters otherwise).

With no context, I highly recommend finding a comedy club near you and having a few drinks. It might take several attempts though so don't give up

I bet issue is not the lack of jokes around but friends.

Former Mormon here, not familiar with "Mormon purity defying practice of soaking". Some explanation is needed

Google it, but not when you’re at work.

It’s how teens fuck while keeping Jesus’ approval.

Ah, the age-old practice of fooling God. A classic.

TIL. TY.
