Laughter as Medicine

If laughter is the best medicine, shouldn't we go up to disabled people and laugh at them?

Explanation

Experiment

This joke plays on the saying "laughter is the best medicine". It takes it to a dark place, suggesting that if laughter is medicine, then laughing *at* disabled people could help them, which is offensive and insensitive.

Why don’t you? I got hit by a car and landed in a wheelchair for a few months. Honestly should’ve died but the only thing that made it better were these jokes. Now I wish she’d finished the job
