You know they will have you laughing hysterically in a matter of seconds.

Just merely point at the computer screen and let them join in on the laughter as well. If you do this enough times, you can become the antidote to that old saying about misery loving company. Instead, you can have a whole group of people around you and you can all be laughing like you have just heard the best joke you’ve ever heard in your life. After all, laughter is contagious so if you do this often enough, maybe you can help turn a few sourpusses in the world into someone that people don’t run from on site.

Imagine what watching these videos could do for you if you simply need to recharge after a hard day at work or you need a short mental break from something that’s driving you crazy. Maybe if more people spent time watching cat videos instead of cooking up schemes they could use on other people, there might even be more world peace. It’s a nice thought, anyway.
