June 6th (Tomorrow) Is the official Laughter Day!

Similiar to the Kindness Day festivities that happened a few months ago, tomorrow has been deemed the official Laughter day!

There is also a Facebook Group to join. Or you can check out the Ponychan thread.

You can find a quick quote on what Laughter Day is all about after the break!

June 6th is The Elements of Harmony: Laughter Day!
"This is your singing telegram. I hope it finds you well. You're invited to a party 'cause we think you're really swell!"

-Laughter! Start the day off with something that makes you laugh and puts you in a good mood.

-Spread the laughter. All day, try to make as many other people laugh as you can, even if it means being more silly than you're used to.

-Wear some pink in honor of Pinkie Pie horsepresents the Element of Laughter. Depending on what you wear you might spread some laughter just with your clothes.

-Cupcakes! Make and share cupcakes with family and friends.

-Being Pinkie Pie themed, if you want to throw a party do it! Remember the blue and yellow balloons. Oh, and STREAMERS!

-Face you fears! If you can do it safely, take Granny Pie's advice and try to overcome some fear you have. Giggle at that ghostie! Don't be upset if you don't succeed, it's laughter day after all. Besides, trying counts.

-Candy! Lots of it, if you want.

Take care and have a Happy LAUGHTER DAY!"

If only I were funny.

fucking procrastination. i don't have anything pink to wear

Andrew said...

Postpone it for a day. My birthday is the day after and what could be better than having a birthday on a day for ponies. Even better that it's Pinkie's day, the master of party throwers!

NinesTempest said...

I shall attempt, but class shall dampen my mood.

Stargazer said...

Not sure why Ponychan changed "who represents" to "horsepresents." Seems a bit confusing. Heh.

But, thanks for spreading the word. Kindness Day was fun. Laughter Day should should be even better. Probably going to take cupcakes to work.

I'm not okay with sharing Cupcakes

Haileo said...

I made a strawberry cake yesterday, strawberry representing Pinkie's coat color. Does that still count? :D

u3210 said...

Well, I guess I can do at least some of these. It's like laxatives; every litle bit helps!

l0x0r said...

Why is D-Day now the day for laughter? Maybe they wanted to laugh for as long as possible, so they chose the longest day.

the power of laughter!

playboydojo said...

Going out to buy a pink shirt and some cupcake mix.

DareDreamer said...

The real reason tomorrow's a happy day is because ED will hit...OVER 9,000,000! Views that is! I'm so happy for you! Early congratz!

Maybe and try and make some cupcakes tomorrow(Even though I'm on a diet :P)

Didnt we already hit 9,000,000 views?

@Stargazer
Ponychan has a wordfilter on "whore" that changes it to "horse". It sometimes derps and forgets to worry about spaces.

Also, I'm just saying, but perhaps D-Day isn't the best day for laughter.

>buying cupcakes from a local bakery that makes the best cupcakes in the city. I'd make my own but they always look failed and taste funny. I'll try spread some laughter too. My going nuclear option is to admit I'm a 17 year old guy that watches a show called my little pony: Friendship is magic. I suppose that's facing my greatest fear too :D

@playboydojo

Alright. Time to make cupcakes and share them with my friends. Now let me just invite Rainbow Dash over....

Drax said...

Oh yea.. I'm making Cupcakes. MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAAH!

Bashfluff said...

Time for some baked bads...Tomorrow!

HARLEY said...

Is there any significance to the date itself?

Anonymous said...

perfect time to wear my chuckles t-shirt >:D

ToonNinja said...

I suppose I can put my usually snarky demeanor aside in order to spread happiness and cheer for one day.

Anonymous said...

i need a pink shirt. Also I shall face the bees (fuck those guys).

B-Man said...

I don't have a pink shirt, nor do I really have the funds to participate in all of these.

I mean, I suppose the pink shirt would be easy enough. It could be achieved by bleeding a red shirt onto a white shirt or sun-bleaching a red shirt, but that would only be the beginning of it.

I said "Maybe Attending" because I might not be able to fulfill all of these due to being broke.

Stargazer said...

@Bashfluff

Yeah, basically the dates came from the long Ponychan thread about the Elements of Harmony holidays creation. There's six ponies in the main cast so the holidays take place on the 6th. It could have gone 1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc. but that was deemed overly complicated.

The dates come from the fact that there are six elements and twelve months, so a holiday every other month. Last holiday, kindness, was in April so laughter fell in June.

Still kinda partial to the holidays being Feb 1st, April 2nd, June 3rd, August 4th, Oct 5th and Dec 6th myself but most people decided on the 6th for all of them. Eh, it's fine.

Stargazer said...

Oops, that was supposed to be a reply to HARLEY not Bashfluff.

Fuck yea, I'm walking straight into the hood a few blocks from my apt, WEARING A PINK SHIRT

Anonymous said...

Ironically, tomorrow is also the silver anniversary of the My Little Pony movie being released. I actually sat down and made a video review of it to mark the occasion.

Aquaman52 said...

I have a salmon-colored shirt that I haven't worn in years.

It'll have to do.

Anonymous said...

I'm laughing for real right now.

Anonymous said...

I'm terribly shy and afraid of crowds, but this sounds like such a great idea that I'll be sure to try and giggle at the ghosties by going out and buying something pink to wear, and ingredients for cupcakes of course!

Duskfly said...

I'm the complete opposite of Pinkie; I'm not much of a fun spirited kind of person when it comes to a special day or occasions. I rarely celebrate anything.

Still, I'm certainly looking forward for this day. I wonder how this will turn out at my school.

Luna said...

Alas, I have to spend the day where I can't get away with wearing Pinkie-attire (without ruining it beyond salvation).

Kits said...

Pinkieism over on DA is doing a Pinkie Party for Friendship day. You still have a few hours left to submit.

Off to vectorize!

chinlamp said...

So, who decides when a day is. And what makes it 'official'?

Stargazer said...

@chinlamp

In late May and early April there was a long thread on Ponychan were lots of people fleshed out the dates and a lot of the other information about the six elements holidays. That's where the "official" dates come from.

Official just sounds too official for a holiday based on a cartoon. It's not like anyone has to celebrate on these dates. It's just some are and everyone is welcome to join in.

Emil Björnfot said...

>mfw 6th of June is also the National Day of Sweden
AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW YEAH

>blue and yellow balloons
Hell yeah that's right!

Pinkie confirmed for future Queen. Screw Victoria.

WTF laugh at the hundreds of people who died on the beaches of Normandy 67 years ago? WHY?

Thattagen said...

My math final is tomorrow.
I should just bust out laughing in the middle of it to let off some stress.

Mysterymeato said...

I'll go watch MarbleHornets, while laughing!
And then I'll lock my doors and windows and never sleep again! :D

Tomorrow's laughter day?
But...tomorrow's my birthday.
BEST DAY EVER

Anonymous said...

Would be better if this was a day later. I'll be remembering D-Day, not exactly a cause to throw a party.

DeviousPsychopath said...

OMG! This post has made my horrible day the best day/night ever!

Oh. I guess my mom has won this game. She gave birth to my little brother on this morning. Everyone was happy, smiled and laughed, so I guess, she really won. Oh, gosh, this day is just 20% cooler now

Putuk said...

I also had Matura preperation (the final exam in the austrian school system) in English and talked to my teacher about ponies.
This is good, isn't it?

A successful laughter day. Everyone seemed happy today, I reckon there's a few secretive bronys amongst my friends. Anyway, I didn't bake cupcakes, I bought them (I'm a lazy brony).
