Here's the biggest laugh I've found on facebook (or anywhere else recently, for that matter):

Description:
The Gravy Boat is now ten years old. For the majority of its life, it has known nothing but darkness, being confined to the back of a China cabinet in my dining room. It is a sad way to live, and it is my wish to liberate it from its solitary confinement this year for Thanksgiving.
Ten years ago, I went to a "Paint-your-own-Pottery" party. Having painted a coffee mug and a dog food bowl at past pottery-painting outings, I was alarmingly void of ideas. Then I saw the white, unglazed gravy boat. It was sitting there - alone on a shelf - asking to be loved like a lost puppy at the pound. And love it I did. Over the next hour, I poured every ounce of creativity into that boat - it was actually easy. I simply focused on the pureness of my love for the thickened drippings that is gravy.
My mother in law looked at the pre-fired finished product and said, "It looks like you are vomiting into a gravy boat!" This is why I painted the arrow - to illustrate the directionality of the gravy. Then she said, "Now I feel like throwing up into a gravy boat!"
In the last ten years, The Gravy Boat has made one Thanksgiving Day appearance. My hope is that we can give The Gravy Boat another chance to do what it was created to do - to hold, nurture and protect this year's gravy. By LIKING this page, you are helping to save The Gravy Boat.
Please help me make this dream a reality!
