The origin of International Joke Day can be traced back to 1970s. An American named Larry Stevens proposed to designate 65438+1 October1as International Joke Day every year. He believes that jokes are a cross-language and cross-cultural communication way, which can make people forget their troubles and increase the fun of life.

There are many ways to celebrate this festival. People can celebrate by sharing jokes, watching comedy shows and taking part in funny competitions. On social media, people will also actively participate in various interesting interactions, such as posting their favorite jokes or sharing some funny pictures and videos.

Humor and laughter have a positive impact on our physical and mental health. Laughter can promote the blood circulation of the body, enhance the function of the immune system, release stress and anxiety, and improve people's emotional state. In addition, humor also helps to improve interpersonal relationships and enhance teamwork, because laughter can relieve tension and bring people closer.

On this special day, I want to share a joke with you, hoping to bring you joy:

One day, a bird flew to the zoo and saw an elephant crying. The bird asked the elephant curiously, "Brother Elephant, why are you crying?" The elephant looked up, blew his nose and said, "Alas, I feel too fat. I have to eat so much every day. I am really annoyed. " Hearing this, the bird smiled and said to the elephant, "Big Brother, do you know? In fact, you are not fat, you are just more attractive than other animals! " The elephant couldn't help laughing. He realized that he had been misunderstood.

I hope this joke can bring you a little happiness and relaxation. On this special international joke day, let's enjoy the charm of laughter and light up every day with the power of humor!
