Humor From News. Week ending 31 October 2026

Some news you might have missed recently. Don’t worry, I am here to bring it your attention, with some sarcasm added. Don’t worry again, it is not about mid term elections. No politics anytime! I don’t gossip but can feed your ideas for gossip next week at work!

Elections in many countries around the world. Civil unrest in many European cities. Shooting even in Halloween store in California. News creates fear and anxiety. Added to that is the recent market crash.

But it is left to us to balance our thoughts and life style.

The coming week is US mid-term elections, I am sure more surprises in the Congress. Wait for coming week!

Let us see what type of humor and laugh we can generate to ourselves

First, Halloween news

Pineapple Express could bring Halloween weekend flooding to Southwest

Don’t think it is a fancy truck with pineapples. It is the new name to rain or storm. Blame El Nino

Next Whatsapp

You can now pin WhatsApp messages indefinitely

If you constantly forget who said what in group messages, no need to worry. You can pin it for your life time and bring it back any number of times!

Next, gas prices all over the world

Oil giants post billions in profits as Americans feel pain at the pump

Economics experts will say ‘business as usual’..

Remember those fancy cruise ship where people live for ever

Couples bought cabins to live on a luxury cruise ship. High fuel costs got them kicked off in Cambodia.

Life in land or sea is same. You may kicked out anytime!

You have heard credit score. What about driving score?

GM to pay $220 million after selling customer Smart Driver data

Owners of GM cars found their driving data had been sold to insurance companies.

How I drive is a opportunity for insurance price increase. What I query in chatGPT is a possible marketing tool for selling products. What is left now is how I breathe and how much water I drink every day!

Forget water for now, what about margaritas?

3 customers suffer chemical burns after drinking margaritas contaminated with cleaning product at North Carolina Chili’s

On a busy Friday night, things go out of stock. Some one thought cleaning products have the similar smell !

Microsoft offers buyouts to around 60,000 employees to contain costs

Till the AI boom, buyouts was meant companies buying back their own stock. Now it is used on their employees!

Finally, coffee time with a tint of scare (not coffee cream)

Nearly 6 million coffee makers sold at major retailers recalled over burn risk

Who thought making coffee itself could be risky? Do not make coffee when you are not totally awake!

Search social media, on ‘humor from news’ to get updates.

This is totally free. There are books in Kindle and Amazon.

Enjoy your day.
