Re: "perverse things that make you go 'ha'"
I can't help it. When someone falls down on the street, it cracks me up. I know I should help but I am usually convulsing with laughter even if I am the one who has fallen down.

Now back to the thread:
Try to spend the holidays with friends and/or family. SSS is right. Holidays can be depressive for those of us who spend them alone.
