I couldn't agree more with Jacob August Riis. Humor can be a powerful tool to bring people together, make them feel better during tough times and a great way to relieve stress. Sometimes we just need a good laugh to remind us that things are not always as bad as they seem. Humor has given us some of the most memorable moments in human history, from sitcoms and comedians to viral memes and fail videos.
That being said, humor must be handled with care and respect for other people's feelings. We should never use humor at someone else's expense or use offensive or harmful jokes that contribute to stereotypes, prejudice, or discrimination.
