Tomfoolery

Some people are infamous for this. That aside, it’s behaviour classified as silly. But I see it as the playful side of humans as long as it doesn’t cause that much harm, and it, by definition, is not malicious at all. After all, isn’t it a loss of “rights” (technically it’s not illegal but whatever it still is so weird) that as age increases tomfoolery becomes less acceptable? It’s lighthearted; it brings momentary joy for some…
Schopenhauer viewed existence as a swing between Pain & Boredom; “fun” relieves it a bit.
