Answer 1

We were in the hospital visiting my grandmother, who had broken her hip. She was not doing very well (she did not recover. . .), and we were all very upset, and trying not to show it. My mother, my daughter and I had left my grandmother's room and were looking for a restroom for my mother. We came to the restrooms and my mother (who is very proper and always very careful about everything she does) turned and disappeared into the men's room before we could even try to stop her. My daughter and I were suddenly seized with richters of laughter that were so overwhelming we were literally unable to stand, and tears were streaming down our eyes. We both felt terrible about it, but could not stop, not even when my mother came back out of the men's room and gave us a look that could kill a nuclear silo. All we could do was point at the restroom door, while she continued to annihillate us with her eyes, while trying not to laugh herself. What was even worse, is that her 'almost laugh' was like something you'd expect from someone who's gone 'off the deep end' and isn't at all amused. When we finally got ourselves under control (the 'poison darts' we were receiving from the nurses at the nurses station were of no small help), we realized that what we were actually experiencing was grief and not humour. And I have to think that perhaps so many people find themselves laughing at funerals because they are actually, secretly terrified of death, and their gut reaction is to laugh in the face of it. . .
How ironic that funeral contains the words: Real Fun.

Also, now that I think about it, perhaps my daughter and I were, without even realizing it, trying to laugh in the face of my grandmother's death. Trying to, subconsciously, make death go away and leave my grandmother alone. . .

Answer 2

I once was on the verge of laughing like mad at a funeral. And the thing was i dont even know why. I just suddnely had an urge to laugh and by holding it in, i was making snorting noises. It was so embarrassing

Answer 3

I'm in a very quiet watchmaking class, I'm listening to an old Cheech and Chong cassette on headphones , and I begin to laugh my butt off because it's very funny. The instructor comes over and tells me that the Challenger had just exploded and I may not want to laugh just now. I felt like crawling under my desk!

Answer 4

i was about twelve years old and we were in an elevator and it was crowded to the point where you could not move. my three brothers were also in there and i had a thought about the commercial "aren't you glad you used dial, don't you wish everyone did"? well needless to say i started laughing so hard i was crying. everyone must have thought i was hearing voices or something. but then my brothers started because of me. the next stop came and people who pushed to get out on other floors got out there.

Answer 5

I was at my grandmothers wake and the minister just started the prayer, my 89 yr old uncle was sitting behind me and I could hear his breath wistling threw his false teeth. It started with a giggle and then I just couldn't control it. Some of my relatives thought that I was crying hysterically, well whatever.

Answer 6

At my in-law's church!
They were my future in-law's at the time, and my husband brought me home to meet them over Christmas. We went to church to watch his nephew in a Christmas play, and my husband and his brother were making me laugh by making comments and jokes about some of the people in the church. These are two grown, intelligent adult men! We were all defiantly old enough to know better! I was 24, my husband was 30 and his brother was 36, so I think it makes it worse that we behaved so badly! But they still crack me up when I'm around the two of them. They make the entire family laugh! Even my very religious in-law's!

Answer 7

In the middle of a wedding...when the bride and groom where saying "I do". Gosh, well its technically not my fault, the little boy behind me shouted out "I got a big wedgie!!" and I dunno it just set me off. Stupid I know but you had to be there it was hilarious, especially since everyone was looking at him and not at the bride and groom. I think part of the cracking up was the fact that everyone was looking at me basically because he had to be like 4 yrs old and was sitting directly behind me so you couldn't see him you just heard him. So for the rest of the time we spent in the church I spent on the floor behind all the pews trying to regain control of myself.

Answer 8

I was in church at a wedding when my stepmom said something funny and I started to crack up. Before long my eyes were tearing and I was a snorting idiot getting dirty looks from the church police! The organist was playing "Air on a G String" and she called it "Fart on a Thong" LMAO!!!!

Answer 9

At my grandmother's funeral. My brother said something about the coffin but instead of coffin, he said sarcophagus. The priest was talking, my mom was crying and I was laughing hysterically.

Answer 10
