Some people will capitalize on anything...


Even though this picture is creepy, it definitely makes me laugh. They've done their job. I'm probably just being cynical, but how is it that someone has found a way to make money off of laughter without actually having to have comedic talent? These illustrious disembodied heads which emanate concentric circles of giant HA's charge $199 to train you to become a "Certified Laughter Yoga Leader."


"Laughter Yoga combines unconditional laughter with yogic breathing (Pranayama). Anyone can laugh for no reason, without relying on humor, jokes or comedy. Laughter is simulated as a body exercise in a group but with eye contact and childlike playfulness, it soon turns into real and contagious laughter. The concept of Laughter Yoga is based on a scientific fact that the body cannot differentiate between fake and real laughter.One gets the same physiological and psychological benefits."

Actually I kind of like the idea of it. I *might* be writing a story about this for the magazine I'm interning at...but that is yet to be determined. I just like playing devil's advocate on here, it's fun. So is pasting random ass pictures.
