As Harkaway points out, humor's greatest power is its ability to regulate emotions. She also notes that it can be hard to stay emotionally reactive while we’re laughing.
“Humor doesn’t change our reality, but it can alter our perceptions of and reactions to it. When partners get stuck in repetitive negative patterns, humor can disrupt the sequence, becoming a metacommunication that can give distance and perspective,” Harkaway wrote.

However, Harkaway also offered a caveat about incorporating humor in relationships. She noted the importance of knowing a partner’s attachment style and the type of humor to use.
People with anxious attachment styles, for example, may respond better to self-deprecating humor, while people with an avoidant attachment style may use aggressive humor to deflect and create distance.

But when it comes to making mistakes as these women did, experts also noted the importance of laughing at yourself. According to Cornell University professor Ovul Sezer, people tend to overestimate how harshly others judge their mistakes, making it hard to take things in stride.
“For minor, harmless blunders, laughing at yourself can signal social confidence, reduce tension, and communicate that the mistake was accidental,” Sezer said.

Nobody ever gets through life without making a few questionable decisions that lead to blunders. And unless they hurt anybody, these comical misadventures often become moments to laugh about later.
Having a partner to witness and even document them makes this shared experience even more memorable, and these women would likely agree. But what about you, dear reader? Which of these made you laugh the most?
