Laughter is more than just a response to humor—it’s a natural stress reliever. It helps reduce stress hormones like cortisol and adrenaline, promoting relaxation. Additionally, it’s great for heart health, as it improves blood flow and maintains healthy blood vessels, lowering the risk of heart problems.
That’s why we all enjoy a good laugh, especially from jokes that catch us by surprise, like this one:
A wife, feeling suspicious of her husband’s behavior, decided to check his phone. She stumbled upon three curious contact names:
- The Tender One
- The Amazing One
- Lady of My Dreams
Her heart raced as she dialed the first number.
Conversation 1
Mother: “Hello?”
Wife: “Hi, who am I speaking with?”
Mother: “This is David’s mom. Who’s this?”
Wife: (feeling embarrassed) “Oh, it’s Sarah. Sorry, I didn’t realize it was you.”
Mother: “No problem, dear. Is everything alright?”
Wife: “Yes, everything is fine. Thank you.”
Relieved yet still curious, she dialed the second number.
Conversation 2
Sister: “Hey there!”
Wife: “Hi, um, who is this?”
Sister: “It’s Anna, David’s sister. Who’s calling?”
Wife: (sighing in relief) “Oh, Anna, it’s Sarah. Sorry to bother you.”
Sister: “No worries! What’s up?”
Wife: “Nothing, just checking something. Thanks!”
Finally, she mustered the courage to call the third number. To her surprise, her own phone started ringing.
Realizing her mistake, she was overwhelmed with guilt for doubting her husband. In an emotional gesture, she gave him her entire month’s salary as a way to apologize.
But the twist? Her husband used the money to buy a gift for his girlfriend, whose contact name was saved as Uncle Mike the Mechanic.
If this joke brought a smile to your face, don’t forget to share it with your loved ones—it might just brighten their day too!
Donald Sutherland dead at 88: iconic actor starred in “MASH,” “Ordinary People,” “Hunger Games”
Sutherland was born July 17, 1935 in New Brunswick, Canada, later moving to Bridgewater, Nova Scotia. Throughout his childhood he battled a number of serious illnesses including polio, rheumatic fever and spinal meningitis.
He left Canada to pursue an interest in acting at the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art, and soon found work in TV and low-budget films.
He got a Hollywood breakthrough in the classic war film The Dirty Dozen, whose ensemble cast includes Lee Marvin, Charles Bronson, Ernest Borgnine and Jim Brown. It was the fifth highest grossing film of 1967.
After leaving London for Hollywood, Sutherland landed one of his most iconic roles in the 1970 anti-war comedy-drama MASH, originating the role of “Hawkeye” Pierce. MASH was one of the most successful films of the decade and is regarded as a classic.
Throughout the ’70s, Sutherland was a Hollywood leading man: his films include in the Oscar-winning Klute opposite Jane Fonda, the psychological horror Don’t Look Now, and the remake of Invasion of the Body Snatchers. He also appeared in the hit comedy Animal House.
In 1980, he starred in Robert Redford’s Ordinary People, which won the Academy Award for Best Picture. Other major films include Backdraft, JFK, Six Degrees of Separation, The Italian Job and Pride and Prejudice.
Sutherland also had success on TV, winning an Emmy Award for the 1995 film Citizen X, and a Golden Globe for the television film Path to War.
A younger generation of moviegoers was introduced to Sutherland through The Hunger Games, the hit dystopian blockbuster series: Sutherland starred as the villainous President Coriolanus Snow.
Though he surprisingly never received an Oscar nomination, he received an Academy Honorary Award in 2017, “for a lifetime of indelible characters, rendered with unwavering truthfulness.” He also received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2011, and on the Canadian Walk of Fame in 2000.
Sutherland was married three times; he was married to actress Francine Racette for 52 years until his death. He was previously married to Lois May Hardwick and Shirley Douglas, and also had an affair with his Klute co-star Jane Fonda.
He had five children — including most famously his son Kiefer Sutherland, the actor best known for playing Jack Bauer in 24.
”I was too young to go watch my father’s films in the cinema,” Kiefer Sutherland told The Hollywood Reporter in 2017. “By the time I hit 20, VHS was available and a friend of my fathers had a lot of his films. In three days I watched Don’t Look Know, Klute, M*A*S*H, Kelly’s Heroes, 1900 and Fellini’s Casanova.”
“It was such a wide spectrum of characters, and I remember calling him up and I felt really badly that I grew up not knowing what a profoundly special actor he was, I felt horribly guilty of that. As a young actor, I had never known or seen another actor who’ve done characters so diverse either.”
Rest in peace to the iconic actor Donald Sutherland who lent his talents to so many great, classic movies — you will be missed 💔😢
