Line 2:
In other words, the most common physical response to an in-universe [[Crowning Moment of Funny]]: a character gripping his stomach in pain and laughing hard enough to weep. Some characters may remain standing, others may roll around on the floor or have to sit down. Not related to [[Die Laughing]]...hopefully.
{{examples
* In the ''[[Great Teacher Onizuka]]'' manga, [[Japanese Delinquents|Kunio Murai]] spots Onizuka walking around with an ugly, fat older woman, and has this reaction {{spoiler|before learning that the lady in question is his friend's mother.}}
{{quote| '''Kunio:''' ''BWA HA HA HA HA! I thought bestiality was illegal in this country!''}}
* In his climatic fight vs. Odin, [[Historys Strongest Disciple Kenichi|Kenichi Shirahama]] starts to imitate his various masters in order to throw off Odin's [[Awesomeness By Analysis]] [[Kung Fu Clairvoyance]]. Some masters cheer with pride at seeing Kenichi imitate them, while others nervously deny that they look or sound like that - and then Kenichi delivers [http://www.mangafox.com/manga/history_s_strongest_disciple_kenichi/v16/c140/16.html a spot-on imitation] of [[The Philosopher|Akisame Koetsuji, complete with short lecture]]. Akisame states his approval...while the other masters crack up. Even [[Emotionless Girl|Kousaka Shigure]] has a hard time holding it in.
* Commonly displayed by the [[Trickster Twins|Hikaru and Kaoru]] in ''[[Ouran High School Host Club]]'', particularly when they manage to get the better of [[Rich in Dollars, Poor In Sense|Tamaki]]. See the episode where Tamaki utterly fails to impersonate Haruhi and resulting [[Ocular Gushers]] from the laughing twins.
* A short but simple example from near the end of ''[[Redwall|Mattimeo]]''
