20 Situations Where People Didn’t Know Whether to Laugh or Get Annoyed

Things don’t always go our way, and it’s easy to get upset over it. But a recent study confirmed that anger only increases our chances of committing more errors, and it also affects our memory accuracy. So the next time you find yourself in a funny pickle or a minor mishap, it would help to view things with a sense of humor.
