Torture.

I have been researching torture, and it makes (simultaneously) fascinating and horrifying reading. It makes me mad to read about how people were tortured for things that they couldn't help, for sundry stupid reasons like differing religions, for the mistakes of their parents--torture in the past.

But it just makes me sick to see that it's still going on. In the Western world, no less.

Writer's Block: So funny I forgot to laugh

[Error: unknown template qotd]
All of my friends' jokes are pretty corny in the first place--but they're still funny. And honestly, who cares if it's corny if it makes people genuinely laugh? 
I only smile if I don't think it's funny, since it annoys me when people overreact.
The only thing I hate is when someone who obviously does not think the joke is funny laughs, and laughs too much. It's forced. But a little laugh so that the other person doesn't feel awkward doesn't annoy me.
