Welcome to Laugh Break! I'm your host Charlie, and today's date is May 17th, 2025. Can you believe we're already halfway through May? My smart fridge is probably judging me for still having Christmas leftovers in there.

Speaking of technology, have you heard about the new AI-powered dating apps? They're supposed to match you based on your brainwaves or something. I tried it yesterday, and it matched me with a toaster. I mean, sure, it's reliable, always warm, and makes me breakfast, but I'm looking for someone with a little more personality and fewer crumb issues.

You know what's been driving me crazy lately? The new trend of extreme minimalism. My neighbor Marie just told me she's getting rid of everything she owns except for three shirts, one pair of pants, and a meditation cushion. I asked her what she's going to sit on when guests come over, and she said, "Their own spiritual awareness." Well, my spiritual awareness has a bad back, Marie!

And can we talk about spring allergies? The pollen count is so high this year that my garden is basically a crime scene of plant reproduction. I walked outside this morning and immediately got yellow-bombed by a gang of vindictive flowers. My white shirt looked like I'd lost a fight with a highlighter marker. Anyone else feeling like they're starring in a botanical version of The Godfather?

The other day, I tried one of those viral life hacks where you're supposed to fold a fitted sheet perfectly. Three hours later, I had somehow turned it into an origami swan and possibly opened a portal to another dimension. If you saw someone crying in their laundry room while wrestling with what appeared to be a fabric tornado, yes, that was me, and no, I don't want to talk about it.

Before I go, here's a little wisdom I've gained: Sometimes life is like trying to fold that fitted sheet - messy, confusing, and likely to make you question everything you know. But hey, at least we can laugh about it together.

Thanks for sharing these giggles with me today! If you enjoyed the show, tell a friend, tell a toaster, or tell your minimalist neighbor - just make sure she hasn't gotten rid of her phone. This is Charlie saying catch you next time on Laugh Break!

Thanks for listening!
