Yes, best ever example is pulling up that infamous post about Ukraine being divided as fiscally conservative and socially conservative on my phone at a lobby after an Ingress farming event and started laughing hysterically. Everyone stared at me and asked what was up and I just said "uh it's an inside joke" since I knew they would never get it.

Yes, all the time because I laugh at almost everything. The most confusing to explain is when something happens in Update. It's just beyond reality.

Actually, only at the JJ cartoon that The Professor made--which was at a friend's house. I just couldn't even begin to explain it.

I have before, multiple times, though I naturally find a lot of things funny.

The most recent one I think was when I was taking my rare look at the Update thread and I saw someone post a headline about a Spaghetti Warehouse/Braum's (Bushie's place) getting robbed. That didn't make me laugh much, but some of the responses to that headline in the thread did.

Joe Republic's Update board game made me laugh on the train causing everybody to look at me strangely.

Multiple times.

I didn't laugh, but my most awkward moment was having to explain why there was a picture of IceSpear kissing Hillary Clinton on my screen.

Not in public, but I have laughed aloud at certain posts in the past.

LOL, who did you have to explain this to?

PAPOY should always be opened in private. You never know when you might come across someone making out with Hillary Clinton or someone with MS Paint cat whiskers. Wink

College friends. Thank Bore for sending me the link right as people were walking in.

I'm fairly sure they thought I was looking at porn.

I've had to explain laughing at an episode of Update a few times.  I typically just say it's a guy from Oklahoma's blog.

Btw, I had to explain to my friends why you thought they were my SJW girlfriends. Thanks, IRC.
