Most sobering situations could use an inappropriate joke. Contributing to Stand Up to Cancer‘s “This is where the end of cancer begins” campaign, celebrities use donated airtime to make laughter, not bummer. See spots:

“Cancer patients and their chemo-induced baldness have stolen the sympathy that is rightfully mine.” And that’s why Larry David can’t get laid.

Meanwhile, Henry Winkler plays cancer in the style of Epuron’s infuriating Wind guy. “Did I bite you? … I didn’t mean to.” Ahh. That Fonzie’s still a riot after all these years.

More videos at the Stand Up to Cancer website, including one where the Daily Show says FU to cancer, and one where Katie Couric … well, “Katie Couric” should be enough to make you laugh, actually.

Economists studying happiness data from more than 130 countries found that well-being typically bottoms out around age 47 or 48, then rises again through later adulthood — meaning the average happiness curve often improves well beyond midlife rather than continuing to decline with age.
