M: Well, you seemed to be having fun watching the movie?
W: Yeah, it was funny. I think it kept me in stitches right from the start.

W: Yes, apparently researchers have also found that it has a positive effect on many parents and that it produces certain hormones that actually switch on the body’s immune system and actually help fight off diseases. So it could be to help fight off diseases.
M: I also heard that some psychology professors found that men are more likely to make jokes than women are, and women are more likely to laugh at them than men are.
W: If only your jokes are funny, I might laugh more and fit the pattern.

M: Which reminds me I’d better get back to those apes I have for roommates before they eat all the chicken I left out in the kitchen!
