You Should Know
YSK - for all the things that can make your life easier!
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must begin with YSK.
All posts must begin with YSK. If you're a Mastodon user, then include YSK after @youshouldknow. This is a community to share tips and tricks that will help you improve your life.
Rule 2- Your post body text must include the reason "Why" YSK:
**In your post's text body, you must include the reason "Why" YSK: It’s helpful for readability, and informs readers about the importance of the content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-YSK posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-YSK posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
If you are a member, sympathizer or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- The majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

That's interesting, seems you use a similar strategy to me.
I have bipolar, knowing I'm going to have extreme lows in the future even with meds can be very dispiriting, but I know that I'll always have a giant weapon in my arsenal... comedy shows. The difficulty comes when there's nothing to watch and I need a boost, only so many times you can rewatch The Office, It's Always Sunny etc.
(yes this was a thinly-veiled request for suggestions of funny!)
Umm, a few.
The IT Crowd, Ted, Dodgeball, Zoolander, Office Space
Here come my suggestions, I find them funny and most have a feelgood undertone too: Parks and Recreation, My Name is Earl, Raising Hope (same writers as in my name is earl), Better off Ted, Schitts Creek, Chuck, Space Force, Brooklyn Nine-nine, Outsourced, Modern Family, The Middle, Community (the earlier seasons). Most of these are pretty well known I guess but I hope at least one of them is helpful!
Much appreciated! I've seen most of these but a few I don't recognise so will check them out. Better Off Ted, imo, is so underrated and I never understood why it got cancelled. Made me laugh so much.
Great! I hope you like them! I know, I've rarely heard anyone mention it and it's just so good. The Veridian Dynamics™ voiceover bits especially are so funny, and poor Phil of course! I've been hoping someone might pick it up and keep going, but I'm guessing that's probably too late now.. Won't stop hoping though!
Some news to assuage the pain of no more Better Off Ted, maybe you've already seen but Community is finally getting the ".... and a movie" fulfillment :)

Ooooh, they finally got it huh, cool! Thanks for letting me know, it's always nice to have something to look forward to!
