This afternoon, I've been uncontrollably laughing out loud at some of the stuff I've read on here.

Everyone keeps looking round going 'wtf is he laughing at?' as I'm obviously meant to be working

The problem is, like letting out a fart in a lift, the more I try to cover it up, the more it makes me look guilty.

I keep laughing, then coughing or taking a sip of water or manically thrashing at my keyboard to cover the noise.

Someone give me some pro tips.

Sometimes I read something that makes me laugh, then I'll stop laughing, but I'll think of it again later on and just laugh again.

Not much makes me actually laugh out loud though.

i can give you a tip to stop laughing, go to search and search "John" and look at any of his replies, this will stop you from laughing.

I tend to shout my boss over to have a look. He then decides if its funny enough to warrent him stopping browsing on eBay, pistonheads or detailingworld

That's because all my replies are serious and informative.

the internet usually makes me crack a smile, or a nasal laugh at best, so never an issue

That's something we've got in common Steve, not aimed at you Paul but I can't stand these people who claim to have spat out whatever they're drinking all over their computer/ keyboard. Clearly they've not.

I work in an engineering workshop so nobody really gives a fuck unless it's very funny then they all come over for a look. Including the gaffer.

To be honest, if I'm sitting here now, I'm not laughing out loud.

But there's something about being in an environment where I should not be laughing / should not be reading CS, such as in my office, working - then reading something funny and trying to NOT laugh, and it causing me to just fucking LOL.

That just kept happening today, each time I burst out laughing, I'd try to suppress it more which would make it so much worse.

It reminded me of the 'Giggle Loop' off Coupling:
