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

[GetMeOffThisCycleOfMysery]

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.

This had me in stitches earlier. I’m a cleaner. This is what skills my son thinks we need for our jobs. I can’t stop laughing

At a Derek Acorah evening. I laughed so much I thought I was going to be sick

Out playing with our stunt kite, DH yelled at DS to get out of it's way, only for it to promptly thwunk DH round the head. I laughed so hard I was on the floor hardly able to breath. DS came to check I was ok, saying 'Are you ok mum, you're squeaking.' Still makes me and DS laugh a few years later. DH, not so much

When do some lesson planning with a colleague after school last week and it all got rather silly.

@BertrandRussell I came on to say the same thing. Mock the week last night was hilarious. 5 weeks 😂

Usually when DD has dressed up the cat and I discover that the poor creature has been like it for hours. Our cat is a pleaser so she will just give up and not make a fuss.

Last week when I got stuck in a reclining rocking garden chair in The Range. 12 yo DD just kept rocking it while I tried really hard not to pee on it and couldn't speak to tell her off.

The thread on here about strange things posters did as children. The poster who had EATEN all the buttons from the television REMOTE completely set me off. I was crying gor about 15 minutes, because I kept setting myself off again

@LadyMonicaBaddingham Oooh. Link please?

There’s a Facebook thing at the mo about a Boohoo swimming costume which is like a cheese cutter...at the front...
The comments are absolutely piss inducingly funny including one about how her flaps would look like a hedgehog trapped under a floorboard in that costume.
I was crying.

A newish book by the Lauren Child called Hubert Horatio. I was reading it to dd2 and finding it all mildly amusing but the ending had us both absolutely helpless with laughter. Wasn't expecting that at all.

Nobody makes me howl like my little sis. She once proudly exclaimed "ha, is the pope Jewish?" Well erm actually no 🙈
More recently, we had a litter of kittens and she was taking 2, we were discussing names then she randomly changed the subject "what do you think about Liam neeson?" (Obviously it was when he was in the news) I replied "well it's a shit name for a cat"....he fella chipped in about calling him in on the door step and the cat shouting you will never find me etc I still can't see Liam neeson without crying.
Sister lost her balance getting up out of my recliner chair, grabbed the curtains, twirled and fell onto my birthing ball and bounced across the room narrowly missing my coffee table. I was in slow labour and nearly died from laughing.
I love a proper good giggle that hurts your sides and cheeks 😂

If I want a good belly laugh I google translation fails - the best are always the Chinese to English ones.

The one occasion that I can think of was when my Dd,aged about 16,farted full throttle in my DMum's face. My Ddaughter was standing petting one of my DMum's cats,who was sitting in one of those radiator cat bed things. My DMum was sitting on the sofa,a couple of feet away from her,and leant over to pick a magazine up from the floor. Just as her head was level with DD's backside,Dd let rip with a huge fart. I was helpless with laughter,and my DMum was looking utterly shocked and disgusted. which made it even funnier

My DH makes me laugh like that most days.
I think that’s why he married me - because I think he is hilarious!

With my cousin, leaning over a scorpion tank at a reptile house. Couldn't find the scorpion. Cousin suddenly says
"We're not going to see it until it comes up and bitch slaps me in the face."
Don't know why I found that mental image so bloody funny.

OMG I'm reading these and laughing but "Is the pope Jewish" nearly killed me.

My husband did a huge burp in the checkout queue and everyone glared except me and wet myself laughing

Ah you’ve made me realise I need a good laugh.. gunna find some good stand up.

My last cry laugh was last week when I re read the screaming at the Michael Angelo thing someone linked to in another thread. The first time around I couldn’t breathe!!

This thread is brilliant. I'm crying now at the dancer's jockstrap, chicken tossed to DD, Liam Neeson and the birthing ball.

Th thread about dogs and wine on mumsnet NOW in aibu it’s bonkers

I can’t stop peeing myself every time it pops up on FB. Think it may be because my 2yo is currently obsessed with dressing herself.

This thread!

I saw the hedgehog squashed under a floorboard comment and I was crying laughing. Brilliant.

There have been some crackers on MN. I remember once on a recipie thread someone meant to type ‘add maltesers’ and it auto corrected to ‘add Maltese refugees’. That one had me laughing for days.

DH was due his man period and had been a grumpy fuck ALL DAY. It reached a peak and I thought he'd take some time to reflect on his twattishness. Turns out he was just building up to another rant... when his hand touched a sugar daddy on the gear stick... he freaked because he thought it was a spider... he actually let out a squeal.... I spent the next 2 hours trying not to piss my pants laughing. I'd just get to the point where I thought I'd composed myself and then start all over
His lordship was NOT amused though

At my dd's dance show recently and there was a dance with people dressed up as zombies or something with expressionless masks on. The elderly lady next to me said quite loudly, "it's not RIGHT! It's just giving the kiddies nightmares" and I couldn't stop the (silent, tears streaming) laughter...
