How does one gain a unique anatomy of Laughter inside oneself?
Q. Laughter is the best Medicine. But to complete from small to bigger cycles of Laughter would need meaning and humour, getting better and better each time. The result would be relaxation: a relaxed body and a relaxed state-of-mind, not forgetting emotions. What do you think about Laughter and how it works?

Is laughter a natural response to being tickled against your will?
Q. I heard that laughter isn't a response you can control, even in a situation like that where you don't want to be touched?
Asked by anonymouswreck9 - Sun Dec 14 00:15:09 2008 - - 5 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Ooooh... I've been way ticklish all my life and I learned real young DON'T try to hold it in! You can try hard not to laugh when being tickled but it makes the sensation worse and brings on loss of bladder control. I could only hold it a minute or so anyway. Then my reflexes took over and I was screaming laughing so hard. Yes, the laughter is an automatic reflex you can't help, even if you get angry or cry they can force it out of you.

Why is there always laughter in the background of sitcoms on TV?
Q. In EVERY sitcom TV show there is, there is always laughter in the background, why is this? It is so annoying and pointless, I would rather just watch the TV show without the annoying unneeded laughter. So can someone please tell me why they always have the laughter in the background?
Asked by SCVroker7253 - Wed Feb 17 19:48:08 2010 - - 5 Answers - 0 Comments

A. It encourages people who are stupid enough to watch sit-coms to laugh at things that aren't particularly funny. Joining in with the crowd sort of thing. Some people just start laughing if it seems everyone else is. If they don't laugh along with everyone they feel stupid cos they must have missed a joke. So it's a stupid way to make stupid people pretend not to be stupid by laughing at stupid things. HTH.

A. Your own voice in combination with the muscle spasms of your diaphragm and chest wall muscles. If you laugh without your voice box, you'll hear the quick inhalation/exhalation of your chest muscle spasms.

Can anyone help me with my uncontrollable laughter?
Q. I'm 15 years old and I have this problem where I can't control my laughter. At random times I would just start laughing and sometimes I would know what I'm laughing about and sometimes i wouldn't. I would laugh at stuff that majority of people wouldn't find funny. Those times when I do know what I'm laughing about I'd be laughing at stuff that happened days,weeks, months and even years ago and people would ask me what I'm laughing about and I'd be to embarrassed to say what because there are those times when I don't know what I'm laughing at, so I'll just say nothing.

How do I write a scene with laughter in a screenplay/TV script?
Q. I'm working on a script that requires laughter between two characters while they're talking. How do I write this in there without constantly writing "(she laughs)" or "(they laugh)"? I also need to the laughter to punctuate the transitions in the conversation.
Asked by ian n - Mon Mar 16 19:00:37 2009 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. A screenplay tends to offer a little more description of what the characters are doing than a regular play, but you do not have to punctuate the transitions in the conversation the way you might in writing fiction. "She laughs" is not a good direction, because it's just telling the actor what to do. She can decide for herself. What you're looking for here is why you need to indicate this. Are you trying to indicate that the mood is shifting? Why is she laughing? You mentioned transition, so what is changing here? Is she relaxing more, or getting more giddy? One thing about screenwriting is that the "show don't tell" rule means something different here than it does in fiction. It is okay to say "She giggles. She's getting giddy." … [cont.]
