Expecting an Hilarious Time Boosts Endorphins

Psychologist Lee S. Berk of Loma Linda University has found that even just expecting a laugh can boost endorphins in the brain. We all like to laugh and other researchers have noticed that white blood cells are more prevalent in those who enjoy life; however, what makes this research distinct is that these endorphins are long-lasting. Expecting to have a good time can prolong your life.

The people involved in this study also showed reduced stress levels. Laughter is truly the best medicine I suppose.

Subverted SUV Spots

Some marketing genius has given people the opportunity to make their own commercials for an SUV. So, people have used the commercial-making tool to roll their own versions that point out that SUVs kill the environment. A fantastic act of subversion.

The company is most likely taking down the commercials that point out that the environment exists so here is an example one from youtube.

If you find other clips post them in the comments.
