Am I the only one who has these? Say you remember or witness something funny, and just break out in a fit of the giggles. I had one today.
I was reading a paper in a cafe this morning, eating a slice of toast and drinking orange juice. I suddenly remembered a few years before when I was still at school, one break time in an empty formroom. My friends had been throwing a cheese stick around (don't ask
) and Friend 1 had hit Friend 2 in the eyes with a cheese stick. Friend 2 leaped at Friend 1 in a fit of rage and they struggled on the floor and were rolling around, hitting each other under the table. Anyway, eventually, Friend 2 gets up and runs out of the room laughing. Friend 1, shocked by Friend 2's behaviour, got up. All returned to normal. So, he sat down, and as we were all behind him we could see what Friend 2 had been laughing at. He had stuck a cheese stick to the back of Friend 1's head
The hilarity came when we realised Friend 1 was oblivious to this
Anyway, as I said before, I was in a cafe, reading a paper, and suddenly I recalled this incident. At first I chuckled a bit. And then a bit more. I started laughing under my breath, and then tried hiding behind my paper as my shoulders started to shake. In the end I was almost breathless. I lowered my paper and saw most of the cafe looking at me from the corners of their eyes. I was so embarrassed!
So, what I want to know is has this type of incident happened to you? Have you been humiliated by a blast from the past, or have you just had the giggles for no reason?
FYI, I kind of chuckled writing this
