Yes for me too.

However, I also find, that some of the things I find funny, others will if I point them out/explain, and in fact some people think I am very very witty and conversely others think I am weird, rude or even creepy. I find it very difficult to "guess" which of the things that really amuse me will also amuse others, and which will just confuse or worse discomfort them.

Yes I do, its quite embarrasing.

Once me and my husband went to the cinemas and a sequenze in a film made us both laugh out loud - but nobody else there thought it was fun.
I was glad I wasnt alone! Its great to be two in such moments, which is often the case with us

Hey Kingdom of Rats, thanks for that update. I've been a little out of circulation lately.

I find that just the sound of certain words will give me a good chuckle, even if that word should pop up during a serious conversation. And also the same thing that may give me grief one moment, like hitting my head on the bottom of a cupboard door, will make me laugh like crazy the next time it happens.

Story of my life!

I tend to laugh uproariously at things that are strange, ridiculous, or bizarre. YouTube Poop, anyone?

The odd time I go to the cinema, I always end-up laughing at parts that weren't intend to be funny. I laugh, then end-up looking behind me realizing I was the only one, looking completely mad. :oops: :P

Jetlag- much like you I find certain words humorous and whether I think about them or they are said in conversation will make me laugh. It can be embarrassing when I am working and think about something that makes me laugh and ppl see me laughing or even smiling and ask what is so funny. Then trying to explain to them what it is, with a nonsensical conversation ensuing, at which point I start shaking my head wondering why I bothered to speak and explain it in the first place, all the while still thinking of it and laughing.

I have a big problems with names: Let´s say that I see the weather report on TV, and they have a special report about heavy precipitation, and the reporter is called Rainer (Danish first name) I just can´t stop laughing (It works fine in English too, I think :-) )

Things like that are very embarrassing, if you just met somebody and you can´t stop laughing, but would break their hart, if you told them why.

In math class today I saw this graph I drew and I was thinking "LOL that looks so wrong/dirty". I bet no one else thought that.

I hate it when I laugh longer than anyone else! Feel so foolish. Once, I was watching a movie at the cinema, and it was a sad part. People in the audience were sniffling. Suddenly, someone let out a loud fart. I laughed so hard that I cried! My friend who was with me, kept shushing me, but I couldn't stop.

Yes - either I think something is hilarious that others don't think is funny at all, or it raises just a very brief smile/laugh from them and then is quickly forgotten, while I laugh for ages.

Sometimes just a particular sequence of words or tone of voice strikes me as funny for some reason.

Yeah, I get amused by some weird and/or inappropriate things (doesn't necessarily make me laugh out loud, but I bet I get an "inappropriate" expression/smile on my face, and I often laugh in my head if not out loud.).

For some reason, I get amused if I think I'm weirding out/scaring strangers... happened the other day at the park, everyone started keeping their distance for some reason (I honestly don't know why.), and I started feeling... giddy.
