When could you not stop laughing at the world's most inappropriate moment?

My grandparents, both sets of them, insisted on burying my parents as Catholic for their funeral.

Little did they know my parents hadn't been practising the religion since they moved out of their parents home.

They hired a lady who was singing off-tune Catholic songs so loud into the microphone that

it felt like a drunk karaoke concert.

Everyone probably thought I was shaking from crying in the front row by myself, but I was

literally laughing so hard that I had tears streaming down my face.

I had to practically choke myself to keep the giggles from coming out.

I could just imagine my parents sitting next to me going,

What the frick is this? And laughing with me. It was a very inappropriate time to laugh, but that

dang lady got the best of me. Back in 2004, I was at my cousin's funeral, and my aunt was in such

a shocked state that she couldn't stop laughing. She was known to do this at funerals.

Because laughing is contagious, I also started laughing a bit, and I had to go to the back

of the church and to the bathroom to get it out of me.

There's a scene in the movie The Pianist, which is about a pretty dark period and place in history.

The scene is where a woman is shot in the street and her body folds in itself as she falls to the ground. We watched that movie in sophomore year English class

after reading the book Night by Elliot Weisel. It was completely silent in the classroom

during virtually the entire film. But at that part in particular, some kids just kind of piped up

from the back of the class in the silence with this sad, disappointed tone in his voice, like he just found out the lunch lady was

out of chicken nuggets. Oh, she folded. So many of us busted out laughing, and it was completely

inappropriate, and I couldn't help it at all. The teacher was not pleased. I heard a kid break

wind in church during a wedding.
