Well have you been in a situation where you began to laugh for no reason? Happens to me all the time, especially when everyone has gone quiet. Sometimes I laugh at the weirdest things....
In school in year 9 my Music teacher got angry at me when I forgot to do my homework (geez it was the first time too) and I exploded with laughter and got a 1 hour 15 mins detention.
Another during a school assembly. All the students had to sit down and be quiet due to the whole year group were screaming when walking up the stairs to science lesson. I got into a fit of giggles, no idea why.
Also during a practice interview I was laughing while explaining why I was keen to apply as a cleaner....even at home I laugh at odd things and once during a room full of relatives and I had to leave the room. My mom was angry.
=/
So share your experiences. Do you get into trouble for laughing?
I was looking at myself talking to myself and I realized this conversation...I was having with myself looking at myself was a conversation with myself that I needed to have with myself.
You must be easily amused, brother. You must have a very loud laugh lol also?
I find many things funny or amusing, sometimes I chuckle or have a huge smile but I don't think I've ever found it very very funny to make me laugh loudly.
Sometimes when my parents yell, I'll be really funny and try to play it off smoothly or find something funny with my parents and chuckle not in a disrespectful way or anything. But they don't mind the smiling too much. They'll just be like "she's not embarrassed of what she did" Even though I am, but there's no point of instigating a tense situation already lol.

Assalmu Alikum
Yup I'm easily amused. I only laugh loudly if I suppress for quite some time.

Lol dang u got detention Haha. You ticked the teacher off! .
anyway yea it happens to me. If like I'm trying to stay angry at someone for some reason...that person( for example my mom) will just look at me with a serious face and I'll just start laughing lol.
Also this Muslim kid (not practicing) in my class had serious staring problems...and every time he wanted to "look" at my hijabi friend and I, he would pretend to look at the clock. I think I almost fainted from laughing, especially since I was holding it in! Mind you, the kid did it like every sec throughout the lecture my Chemistry professor was giving. My friend starting laughing really hard cause of me. My stomach was hurting, that's how bad I was laughing But yea...I get amused over silly things too...:/

Yeah so am I. I never laugh I just interject random comments. I don't recommend that as a substitute because people will think you have ADD. Maybe you should write down all the things you find funny and keep it to yourself ;/ . I tried that too. Blog/journal?
I have my moments.. the worst is praying with my son/kids. They will do something that makes it hard to keep a straight face and next you know you have to start praying all over again - in separate rooms!
The other thing - astaghfirullah is funerals. It's when the woman come in, grab the relative of the deceased and they have a wailing contest. Then it stops as abruptly as it started, with something like, "Oh, have you seen, so and so, hasn't she come yet?"

I nearly died of laughter under my large hijab!
Hmmm that gives me an idea. I should wear a hood if I start to laugh.

^^ I do that. I have a silent laugh sometimes, but it gets so hard that you'll hear funny noises coming out of me, hence making the nearest person laugh

Sometime my friends or my relatives asked me "Are you crazy ?" because I laughed without saw something funny.
Actually, that's because I saw something that remind me to a funny thing. In example, In a fruit shop I saw a 'Durian', fruit from Southeast Asia. Nothing funny with 'durian' but that was remind me to a some funny cartoons about 'durian'. And I laughed because I remember those cartoons.
^^ Lol sis I would laugh at things like that too and people will just be like ??
If I'm around my brother and I laugh at something he doesnt find funny, he'll get mad and be like, "walk away." lol
The way I was laughing at the funeral made a few other people laugh lol
btw does any of you laugh silently i do that sometimes an it makes me laugh at myself, giggling and laughing and no sound :P heh ok it's not so bad,,
Yeh, me. At this funeral especially, I had to be ultra silent but my shoulders were going up and down violently and my friends started laughing (silently)because of me. At the end I thought I was going to howl with laughter so I hurriedly left the room (and yeh I let it out in the back garden). LOL!
I'm proud of laughing at things people don't notice as funny even they are funny, it shows intelligence.
Haha!

HMM DID u ever do them contests where you have to try and make each other laugh????
me and my friends still do it, it's called "try not to laugh" one friend has to be serious and try his hardest not to laugh while the other tries to make him laugh.
