Omnivorous has contributed a FREE Snail joke (see 217853) and now I
can't stop laughing.

It wasn't the joke (which was awful), but the sheer pleasure at
getting something for free.

Now, I can't stop laughing.

What to do?

Dear Laugher, 

This is such a good joke. Someone should give Omni a show. However, if
you suffer like me I have several treatments for you.


Shock Therapy: 
=============
Stop Laughing at Once! 


Threats:
=======
Stop laughing or I'll call the police!

Meditation
==========
Think of something sad (like the fact that no pictures of P.G. Taylor
were found online, not by me anyway
http://answers.google.com/answers/main?cmd=threadview&id=223841 - btw
- did you try the Imperial War Museum?)


Do Something Else

Pay for your jokes
==================
Jerry Seinfeld is rich, Benny Hill was rich, Bill Gates is also
somewhat affluent and Omni is more talented than all of them put
together. Since you've mentioned that the partial reason for laughing
is getting the joke for free - start paying now.


What not to do
==============
Don't try to scam the New York Times' and its readership. Apparently,
after the NYT corrected his many forged articles, Jason Blair (not
related to Tony, although both engage in some level of plagiarism),
"Couldn't stop laughing"
(http://216.239.53.100/search?q=cache:Kjk4G2Cq-AgJ:www.cnn.com/2003/US/Northeast/05/21/blair.ap/+%22stop+laughing%22&hl=en&ie=UTF-8)


Last Resort
===========
Sing, "They're Coming to Take me Away" [Lyrics:
http://www.contrib.andrew.cmu.edu/~norm/TakeMeAway.html] - laugh is
integrated into the song, and nobody will notice that can't stop
laughing.


Be strong, 
Haha-ga

Hi, Guru

Thanks but you are too late!

I laughed myself silly and they are now carting me away.

G'bye all!

I do hope you haven't been on a cannibalism tour to the antipodes recently:

I just read the joke. If you want to stop laughing, I suggest you do the same.

Whenever I want to stop laughing, I just watch "Frasier" on
television. That'll do it every time.

Dear ex-laugher, 

Thank you for your rating. Since I am not as talented as Omni, I
decided to give a bonus link, instead of a bonus joke, so you'll have
something to laugh with with your fellow patients:
