The giggles!

Subject: The giggles! Fri Mar 28, 2008 1:44 pm

There's a funny story on the BBC news website about a radio newsreader who got a fit of the giggles, while she was trying to tell listeners that someone had died: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/7318173.stm

Anyone here suffer from giggles at inopportune moments? I do it all the time - I think of something funny and then I just can't stop laughing, forever!

o.O How embarrassing! I don't suffer from this problem, but find people who do very amusing!

X3 yes!!
I get the giggles like crazy and it takes me like 15 minutes to stop!
Stephen (another babyfur, he's 14) has been at my house for spring break and last night as we got into bed, he said "ass" randomly and I bursted into a giggle fit that seemed to last forever XD

Yeah, I apologise on behalf of the BBC website and whoever wrote that article. They normally get this kind of thing right. And I thought everyone knew that tune, even if they don't speak French! Smile

Honestly... had it not mentioned "Au Clair de la Lune" in the article, I never could have guessed that's what it was...

And giggling fits? Forget giggling, I cackled hysterically in class today when I found out what my mark for a chemistry test was...
