Today, I, a man in his 40s, had to be taken to the hospital because I was laughing so hard at an old Disney movie that my diaphragm went into spasms. I stopped breathing and passed out for a few minutes, and my son had to call an ambulance. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I went to Disney World. I fell and hit my head while jumping up and down to see Ariel. I'm a 35 year-old man. FML
Today, my friends and I saw a movie. We sat in the balcony. Halfway during the movie we heard a commotion, thinking it was a group of unruly teenagers like us, we began to pelt the lower half of the theater with candy. We later learned that it was a man having a heart attack. FML
Today, I went to the dentist for a routine cleaning. As the dentist was working on my teeth, he accidentally sprayed water all over my face. I couldn't stop laughing nervously, which made the dentist think I was choking. He ended up calling for backup and I had to explain that I was just laughing. FML
Today, while at a trampoline park, my time of the month and my out-of-shape body worked together to make me almost pass out. FML
Today, I made a nursing home resident laugh so hard that he had a heart attack. FML
Today, I was at an amusement park with my kids. When we were on the Ferris wheel, I discovered my fear of heights. I hyperventilated, screamed from our seat "LET ME OUT! OH GOD LET ME OUT!!" I also began crying hysterically. They stopped the ride for me to get off. I'm a 45 year old man. FML
Today, I tripped and fell, damaging my sternum and making it incredibly painful to breathe in or out too much. About ten minutes later, I got the hiccups. FML
Today, I was taking a walk when I noticed an elderly man on the ground, unmoving. Being a registered nurse, I tried to give him CPR. As my lips touched his, he hacked a loogie and spat it into the back of my throat. I swallowed. FML
Today, I laughed so hard at a joke that I snorted, which caused me to choke on my Coke, which then caused me to fall off my chair. The joke wasn’t even that funny. FML
Today, I laughed so hard my milk went out my nose in front of the boy I liked. Then, since I was laughing so hard about that, I accidentally farted. FML

It's a little ironic that laughing sent you to the hospital, when they say that laughter is the best medicine

Was it Herbie, The Love Bug or Flubber? Those movies were funny Air Force! (I’m assuming that’s what “af” means.)

No, it means “as Frasier.”

Thanks for setting me straight. That’s a pretty high bar. Niles was such a hoot!

Where do you see “AF”?
RichardPencil 32
All the young folks say “funny af” these days. Didn’t know it meant “funny as Frasier” and not “funny Air Force.”

When your diaphragm goes into spasms that causes hiccups, so you literally passed out from hiccupping too hard. How does that make you feel?

we really need to know which movie it was.

Which movie?

This 500% needs a follow up specifying which movie it was.

But that’s what’s great about Disney — the classics, at least. They appeal to every demographic and in some ways actually get more relevant with time.

Looks like Disney succeeded in subliminal messages. It just happens to start affect only 40 year old men.
