To ask for you tell me when you laughed so hard you cried?

Tell me when you laughed so hard you cried!

The more random the better. Following this old tweet: twitter.com/GraceSpelman/status/635983048622931968?s=19

The replies had me belly laughing.

One of my stories. My brother and I went to the pictures, no idea what the film was, but it was an MGM film.

I know this, because as the lights dimmed, the opening credits came up and the MGM lion roared. Without missing a beat, I whispered to my brother, "That lion's dead now."

He turned at me, looking confused then started silently shaking with laughter. Realising what I said, I whispered, "Oh god. I mean the big man with the gong!"

My brother - looking even more confused as to what I was on about - at this point, was nearly convulsing from trying to hold his laughter in, inside the quiet cinema. Then tears started rolling down his cheeks.

I was already in silent hysterics too, laughing at him and the fact that I couldn't laugh loudly as a film was playing. I was clutching my stomach, tears were streaming and I was breathless from trying to hold it in. I had to get up and run out of the auditorium. Got outside into the corridor, collapsed in a heap on the floor, cry-laughing, while people stared at me.

Took me ten minutes to compose myself, missed the start of the film, but I went back in. But every now and then one of us would start silently giggling again and would set the other off. Just both sat there shoulders shaking quietly.

Incidentally. When I said "That Lion's dead now!" what I meant was, the week before, the man who bangs the gong at the start of the Rank films had died in real life. Somehow in my head, I got muddled up when the lion came onto the screen. Hence my seemingly random comment.

Would love to hear yours.

Another one. When I was in my early 20s, myself and a relatively new friend went to Cardiff for the weekend.

While visiting Cardiff Castle, we saw some peacocks and wanted to get a photo of them with their plumes on display, but every time we got our camera out, they dropped their plumes down. We stood waiting for ages, being silly we started swearing at the birds, daft stuff like "Oi peacocks! Don't be a total cock. Open your plumes you colourful bastards!"

In the end we gave up and went to the castle tea room. It was fairly empty, bar three tables with the elderly sat at them. It was also so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

We got some drinks and started talking in a whisper to each other, acutely aware of how quiet it was in there. All of a sudden, we hear voices, look up to the window at the top of the end wall and see feet walking about. The tea room is down some stairs and the window at the top of the wall is level with the ground outside.

We can hear everything being said outside and realise it was where we were stood 10 minutes earlier, swearing at the peacocks.

My friend and I both register this at the the same and start giggling, when all of a sudden, I stand up, say, "Excuse me." I walked to the door, open it, walk through it, close it, stand there looking back at my friend through the glass, as she looked back at me, confused.

Then 30 seconds later, I walk back in and take a seat. My mate confused asks what I was doing and I deadpan replied, "I had to fart."

Well, that was in. My mate went into full blown hysterics, which set me off. We ended up laughing so much it hurt and the old ladies were staring. We quickly paid and left and went to a pub over the road to calm down. 😂

My Dsis had just had a baby, we went for lunch sitting on hard plastic chairs, I passed wind it bounced loudly off the chair, I blamed Dsis loudly, she couldn't deny it as she was laughing so much trying her best not to pee, we laughed while tears rolled down our faces.

@EmeraldShamrock If you can't blame farts on siblings, children or pets, then who CAN you blame them on? 😂

Portreath bee centre when the DC were little. It was gorgeous outside, we paid something like £5 each to tour the tiny (crap) museum. At the end there is a tiny darkened room with chairs in rows and we were told to sit down and watch a film about bees. There were a few other German people there. Film came on and it was a grainy scratchy 1960s thing, really crap. All RAF type accents. DH started to giggle and just couldn't stop. I was getting cross which made him laugh even more. German man asked "is he mentally mad", we literally had to drag DH outside still crying laughing.
Funniest thing ever.

@Serin

Is he mentally mad? 😂😂😂😂

A thread on here a few weeks ago when someone posted about boil in the vag curries. She meant boil in the bag. Proper cry-laughing at the unfortunate typo

During a ballet when a dancer leapt across the stage, legs akimbo, full splits, and his tights split at the crouch. The 'prrrrrrrrip' sound combined with the plop of his jock-strapped scrotum through the hole left me and my friend in a helpless heap of shaking, fist biting laughter, and we ended up crouching on the floor in front of our seats to avoid getting kicked out of the theatre. My rib cage hurt for days afterwards.

A woman at work suddenly came in wearing a wig, and she never said a word. We all had to carry on as if he didn't realise. It was agony that day, none of the rest of us even dared looking at each other but we kept shaking with silent laughter.

@DobbyLovesSocks sounds painful. 😂

@SleepOhHowIMissYou Hahaha! I would have paid to see that. Bloody hilarious. You can't have been the only ones laughing surely? What did the dancer do? Run off stage? 🤣

@megrichardson was it a mad / bad wig, or did she have hair loss? I've visions of those 80s foil wigs going on.

Oh I was talking with DH and couldn't remember what royals put on their heads...

I had a total mental block and came out with "King hat" instead of crown 😂

Omg I laughed and laughed so much it hurt and it still reduces me to tears now. Off I go! 🤣🤣🤣

Last night at Mock the Week. For some reason, it struck ds and me as incredibly funny. I can’t actually remember which bit set us off now!

Had a few but can't remember the reasons, other than when a friend and I went to collect my horsebox. We got hopelessly lost on the way home, including having to do a 3-point-ish u-turn on a narrow country lane, but could not stop laughing. Full on belly laughs. Still remember it so fondly.

We had some rickety old chairs at work and even I was nervous about sitting on them. A colleague (who was an absolute stuck up bitch) was massively overweight and was sat on one. It kept creaking and I said "be careful on those knackered chairs". She laughed and said "I'll be fine". The next thing the chair collapsed underneath her like the scene in shallow Hal! I thought I was going to die trying to hold my laughter in. Had to rush off to the loo feigning a coughing fit 🤣🤣🤣

@cycle, no, the woman's hair was fine before, but she wasn't the sort you could directly question. The wig looked worse than her real hair. I really have no idea why she wore the wig!

My mum the other week. She had cooked some chicken breast for DD4 korma, and was standing at the corner cutting up. I was talking to her and she gets distracted very easily.

Suddenly she turns round and starts throwing bits of cut chicken at DD4 😂 I said mum wtf are you doing? She said omg I thought she was the dog 😂😂😂

I’m still crying now thinking about DDs confused wee face 😂😂 poor soul

Standing at the counter cutting it up, that was meant to say

Reading text messages on damnyouautocorrect.com. I don't why but I always end up crying with laughter at some of them.

@Ilikeyourbeard that made me laugh loudly. 😂

Me and my friend were stoned. We were watching judge Judy and she must have said something funny although I cannot remember what it was. We started laughing but we ended up laughing so hard that we started panicking but couldn’t stop laughing, we convinced ourselves the weed was laced or something lol. It wasn’t but my god I’ve never laughed until I cried like that before or since. It’s a great memories and still makes us laugh to this day if we talk about it.

When I was 24/7 carer for my Dad, my best mate used to come and stay over some nights with me so I could manage to have a bit of a social life. We both have problems getting to sleep, but took to listening to audiobooks to help. I bought 'This Audiobook Will Put You to Sleep' from Audible. Well, it didn't - it just gave us the giggles - I was crying laughing, as was she - think we fell asleep due to exhaustion in the end. Highly recommended audiobook - it does what it says (after the first listen!).

On another website the other day, people were being encouraged to post about their worst toilet-based disasters. It was all pretty hair-raising stuff (as you can imagine) but one poor chaps experience almost caused me to have a toilet based incident of my own.
He was lowering his ‘swollen, pendulous post-operative’ testicles towards the toilet seat, when he somehow managed to trap them between the seat and the porcelain. He then couldn’t stand up for fear of ripping them off, or sit down for fear of crushing them further. So he had to hover and whimper till he managed to ease them out.
Oh man I couldn’t breathe!!
(Probably not done it justice tho)

@GetMeOffThisCycleOfMysery The poor ballet dancer kept going with his dangling jock-strapped package bobbing about outside his tights. It was agonisingly funny and there were a fair few shaking shoulders in front of us.

We had friends and their kids round for drinks. The kids got a bit boisterous and hit my dh in the unmentionables. We caught it all in camera and were all laughing. The kids asked why and my friends mum said ' you just hit uncle Benes in the belly'
We all thought she was going to say bell-end..... could not stop laughing.

@Benes That's £250 for you from You've Been Framed. 🤣
