What has made you laugh until you wheeze recently?

I was just sitting on the loo (a place that seems to promote random thoughts) and I remembered a conversation with DH last year and I laughed until I wheezed all over again. I was looking for a new car and wanted electric if I could find one that I liked. I looked at an eNiro in the showroom. I felt that the boot wasn't big enough, I would be able to fit the dog's crate into it but not much luggage with it. The salesman suggested that if we only put both the dog and luggage into the car for holiday trips then we could put a roof box on for the couple of times a year that we needed it. I was talking about it with DH later and mentioned the roof box, he looked at me for a moment and said "I don't think the dog would like being in a roof box". Grin It still makes me lol now.

A few months later I had bought a car, a plug in hybrid estate not an SUV. I've had low to the ground cars before but I was much younger then so I struggled a bit but thought I hid the struggle well. DH works from home and I park directly in front of the study window. One evening he was watching Thunder Force on his computer, which is a rubbish comedy film, and he was nearly falling off his chair with laughter. I said that the reviews hadn't found it all that funny and he said "It's not, but they're trying to get out of a Lambourgini and it's just like you getting out of your car." Grin

DD is going through puberty. We spent a 20 minute drive naming body parts (mammary glands, mainly) every type of slang name possible. Sometimes I had to ask her what she was talking about. But we howled with laughter the whole time.

In New Zealand recently the Covid health briefing guy said, on the National News (they're in lockdown) that he understands in high density areas it's hard for people to get outside and "spread their legs". I laugh every time I think of it.

Someone at work has washed their cat

New cat owner. No good reason for the wash just thought it was like a dog. Shampoo and everything

Cat 1 - work colleague 0

This video. I can't watch it without snorting.

Using the Wambo app with a friend, making pictures sing stupid songs. She'd not seen it before and howled, and I howled at her!

DH and I are watching the office (US). Hadn't seen it before - it's properly hilarious.

EverythingsComingUpRoses · 25/08/2021 23:15

A spy in the wild

Robotic quokka meets real quokkas -and falls over

Shouldn't be funny but it absolutely was!

FranklySonImTheGaffer · 25/08/2021 23:22

Same Tammy - DH watched it previously and from the bits I picked up I thought it was a bit ridiculous.
Have been home alone for a week and decided to give it another go. So so funny and I think I'm falling in love with Jim Blush

Elouera · 25/08/2021 23:25

A parody of antiques roadshow I was sent today. Its so well spliced, that I thought it was real at first, but depicts the valuation of 2 porn magazines. I was crying with laughter!

Pinkchocolate · 25/08/2021 23:32

My dog decided to sleep on my husbands side of the bed last night instead of next to me and growled every time my husband moved. My dog is tiny and will occasionally growl but never bite so listening to him growl while DH tells him off and then gives up and sort of sleeps around the dog was brilliant.

Watching Rob & Romesh Vs series often has me wheezing with laughter

Playing Knock Knock with my grandson in bed together laughing so much I almost weed myself.
What was so funny was the knock knocks were not funny at all.

Knock knock

Peter
Peter who
Peter knight before you go to bed..

This episode of the US Office.

No I don't think the dog would like being on the roof! Haha.

The other day my DM and I were talking about paragliding and what it must be like, the views and potential dangers etc. She said she'd be worried about colliding with a flying goose 'and it getting tangled up in the parachute'. I couldn't breathe for laughing, as I could sort of imagine her reaction if that happened and the reaction of the goose too. The more she added to the thought, the harder I laughed. It was my best laugh in ages actually.

"There's a fucking goat outside" doing the rounds on FB/ WhatsApp recently.

Everything the infamous Moleatthecounter does on Twitter….🤣🤣🤣

The Cedric the Entertainer 'Bomanicious' sketch

GreenTortoise · 26/08/2021 00:23

When my DP stated that babies have gills to breathe in the womb. GILLS.

I also do not add softener when washing waterproof coats as you're not supposed to and he didn't add softener when washing the swimming gear as it would take the water repellent off. It's a swimming costume...

sadeyedladyofthelowlandsea · 26/08/2021 00:27

I was trying to explain to my DC how weird kids tv was when I was gorwing up, and for some reason showed them the intro to Bananaman.

I'm still not quite over it yet.

Hellotoallmyfans · 26/08/2021 00:33

A thread last night entitled 'Friends Jealous' in which the OP was miffed as her mate hadn't reacted to the photo she posted on SM of her new car. Another poster sympathised with a comment about a photo she had posted where she'd had a pair of designer shoes strategically placed in the background and had even discreetly pointed to it with her nan's walking stick !!!!!! I honestly don't know whether she was taking the piss but I woke poor dh up as I was literally wheezing with laughter! It was just so random!

I'm giggling again now😂

TempNameChangexx · 26/08/2021 00:43

This makes me giggle every time I watch it !
