How to stop yourself from laughing...

[Lore]

So how do you stop yourself from laughing when you really really shouldn't?

At work today one of our year 5's said.... 'How do you make a snooker table laugh Miss?' And in a hurry to get the children back to class before hometime I didn't consider the possible answer..... 'tickle it's balls'

I struggled so much not to laugh, one, because I'm a bit sad and find daft jokes like that quite funny and two, because I just didn't expect it!

i cant, if i'm going to laugh i just do, usualy at completely inappropriate times, i have long hair tho so can hide behind it!

The trouble is the kids are so clued up on everything these days that the joke was only just slightly risque.

I would've had a snigger at the joke with the kids !!!

Oh he caught me laughing alright .. which was enough encouragement to shoot for another.

we had a giggle but I had to put an end to it before he got carried away... I asked him not to tell me anymore as I have delicate ears! :oP

Bite your tongue - it really works!

I bite the inside of mouth and just pray to god I don't start.
