What Kind of Laugher are You?

Tweet

Sometimes I laugh so hard that I can not make a sound until I catch my breath. I call that a hearty laugh. but it is belly laughter. I also do silent laughter when I do yoga. I admit that I giggle at times, but believe that belongs to nervous laughter. Usually I picture socially awkward and fat people as gigglers, but I am neither. I have also been a part of most of the laughters listed below. The cruel laughter was when my friend bounced down a few steps on her behind. I couldn’t stop laughing. According to an article by Molly Edmonds and Joseph Miller from “How Stuff Works” there are 10 types of laughter. Etiquette laughter Contagious laughter Nervous laughter Belly laughter Silent laughter Stress-relieving laughter Pigeon laughter Snorting laughter Canned laughter Cruel laughter When I listened to the video my granddaughter made about a competition she had last January (in my photo collage), I actually screamed with laughter. The music she chose was hilarious. By the way, she took 3rd place. I had stress-relieving laughter then.
