Some stupid meme will appear in my head while I’m in public and a stupid grin will force itself into my face and obviously I don’t want people to look at me and think I’m crazy, or worse ask what I’m laughing about and the only thing that was on my mind was “born to shit, forced to wipe”.

    I have a secret for you.

    Whenever you let out one of those little laughs in public, EVERYONE in earshot is wondering if you were laughing at them and is subtly checking if it was them or someone else worth laughing at.

    In those moments, your the last thing on people’s minds.

        These are two types of cartoon sounds when a character snores.

        The “Inside you there are two wolves” is the name of a proverb which began being parodied towards the end of 2018 and through the beginning of 2019. In the original proverb, a grandfather says there are two wolves fighting inside him, an evil one and a good one. His grandson asks, “who will win?” The grandfather replies, “The one you feed.” In parodies, the story is often simplified to “There are two wolves inside you. One is X. The other is X. You are X.” The proverb’s actual origins are murky. It has been attributed to Christian pastor Billy Graham in 1978, as well as the Cherokee Native American tribe.

      Yup. OP, allow yourself to smile or chuckle. You might find that it was nervousness that made you so anxious to laugh in what you perceive as an inappropriate situation. Relax.

    “Hey guys can you help me disconnect from the fire hose of human joy to appease all the grumps around me?”

    We can’t and we won’t.

    Lobotomy.

    Honestly I have no fucking clue. I do the same thing. Especially bad if I think about something that can cause a laughing fit and then I have to explain a voice clip a friend sent to me.

    Most people generally won’t care though. They’ll look over and maybe go “Huh” before they carry on.

    You’d be amazed just how little people actually think about anyone other than themselves.
