When I come to work, I work alone, so I have alot of time to think to myself . When I do, I often think of funny past tv shows that I’ve watched or funny things that have happened to me or could happen to me. The end result is me laughing like a loon when I’m completely alone. Other people at work have observed this from me and now think I’m a complete nut! (Who knows maybe I am)
So anyway I was just wondering; am I alone in this? or are there other fellow “nutjobs” out there like myself?🙂
Lord knows if I want to find fellow nutjobs I’ve come to the right place!😛
😉 I’m kidding of course…[runs ducks and hides]

I crack myself up all the time. It’s one of the hazards of being the world’s funniest human.

Regularly.
Mr Goo has said that I’m the only person he knows who laughs more often at things in my head than at things around me. Odd things tickle my funny bone at all times of the day.
Welcome to the Loon-Club 😃

Oh yeah. It’s what keeps my brain busy while I’m working.

All the time. Especially since nobody at home understands my jokes.

Awe man, I feel like I just found my long lost family. I concur with everything above.

Sometimes when I laugh at things I think it’s because they crack me up, but usually it’s just out of politeness.

anyone who knows me has long since gotten over the fact that I make myself crack up.

Yes, I crack myself up. I’m one of the funniest people I know.
Hubby sometimes reminds me, though, that I’m not that funny…

Oh, you have _no_ idea.
I’m sure it’s a sign of genius or something… 😃
Actually, I’m thinking I picked it up by being an only child, and thus played alone and had to entertain myself quite a lot.

Damn skippy. Mostly it’s because I do this word-association game with myself; different names in the office correspond to weird things in my brain, most of which wouldn’t be recognized or relevant to others.

Oh yes, I crack myself up all the time.
The one visual that does it every time is imagining Minute Bol (sp?) giving me a hug. I think of his arms wrapping around me several times. (snort snort)
For some reason this is such a goofy image that it cracks me up. I tried to explain this to my sweetie and he just shook his head.

Oh, yes very much. I’ll just say things or make little noises to amuse myself. For instance, the word “monkey” is a source of constant amusement.
I was hoping I was not the only one who laughs at himself.

Heh, I do it ALL the time. In fact, my Crew[sup]TM[/sup] has noticed that I “break out into uncontrollable laughter and get hysterical over nothing.” (their words, not mine) Sometimes I’ll be thinking of something funny, or just feel like laughing. It’s terrible when I can’t restrain myself, or can barely manage to do so.

Yes.
I am my own best audience, because I’m the only one who gets it.

I think I’m hilarious, much to the chagrin of those around me.
