“I've found out why people laugh. They laugh because it hurts so much... because it's the only thing that'll make it stop hurting"

Isn't it? Perhaps I don't grok all its fullness yet. But find me something that really makes you laugh sweetheart... a joke, or anything else- but something that gave you a a real belly laugh, not a smile.
