Why [jokes][1] *should* be accepted? ----------------------------- Being part of the SE community made me realize that we all to the very last one of us share at least one thing in common, that thing called Happiness. Can you really imagine yourself in life without sense of humor? Humor leads to happiness which plays big role of our life, it also prevents mental disorders such as depression, stress and anxiety - which obviously most of us developers suffer on everyday basis. Developers with mental disorders like those mentioned earlier can lead to [suicide][2], [murder][3] and most of all, invent the most [devilish crime in history][4] with over billion dollars of pain and damage in the last forty years.

As long it's not abused, of course.
