Sanity Break: Best cover-letter ever???

Okay, we all know that the job-market sucks, and has for quite a while.  Perhaps what job-seekers need is a new approach, say, like a revised cover modeled after the one below from Roanold. You might consider using it as a template – what could possibly go wrong?

Sanity Break: Gotta Share! Improv social media musical

Love this! A musical breaks out at the tech conference in New York. A speaker is suddenly interrupted by a man who refuses to turn off his cell phone. Knowing how our society has become so “I-have-to-share-everything-about-my-life”, this really hits the funny bone.

Sanity Break: 5-year needs a job before getting married!

Funny!!

 

Here is the story from YouTube:

I am a singer/songwriter and had been asked to go on National Television to sing one of my original so-ngs. My little 5 year old sister (she’s six now) was upset and feeling left out because her big sister was doing all these fun and interesting things. This 1 minute clip is part of a 15 minute video where she discusses her views on life and decides she isnt going to let anything come between her and her goals.

Mental Health Break: The Adventures of Dog Fort

The internet is full of pics and videos of cats and dogs wearing cute clothes, chasing their tales, driving a car, pouncing at themselves in the mirror, etc. But at Dog-Fort.com, what started out as a photoshopped picture of a dog in a kid’s fort (made of pillows and a blanket), became a full-fledged cartoon strip of Dog Fort vs. Al Cata (or dogs vs. terrorist cats).  Sophomoric pet humor using detective-show clichés – hilarious!  (h/t urlesque.com)

Did you know that Dog Fort saved Christmas??!

Mental Health Break: Silent Monks Singing Hallelujah Chorus

This is absolutely hilarious and incredibly original!  Take a look to see how a monastery of silent monks would sing Handel’s “Hallelujah Chorus”:

And starting at the 2-minute-30-second marker, here’s a group of (cross-dressing?) nuns performing the same piece. Very funny, especially the nun to the far-right. What a hoot!!

Sanity Break: Most Ridiculous Senior Yearbook Quotes

A senior yearbook quote is supposed to be inspiring, reflective, philosophical, or – at least to the person pictured – extremely “deep”. Perhaps a mantra to help them on their life journey.

But there can also be some total dorks that think of ridiculous quotes to place next to their senior picture.  Here’s a few of the more ridiculous:
