I didn't think anyone here was annoyed 
The only one who seems annoyed is the guy who kept purposely killing plants and telling others to do so until I declined and began taking before and after photos.

Just not worrying about what other people are doing or thinking. Focusing on yourself and valuing your own happiness is key to life, as it's what builds the foundation of the happiness you to express to others.
Being prepared to take things day by day is what makes it doable. In my experience.
A lot can happen and plans change frequently, being able to accept that there are alternatives helps too.

the crying is going to happen one way or another so may as well laugh together, too. Speaking of the latter, what in the hell is laughter even?

There's usually some shoulders being shrugged, combined with some hand motion, and a shaking of the head......in my world at least.

laughter is a feel good emotional response, it can be silly, it needs no reason, falling down can be very funny. one needs to relax.

In the situation I described above, laughter is more of a concession or expression of defeat, acceptance. Not really in "feel-good" context.

This'll take the fun out of it for sure, but laughing is an understanding of innuendo, nuance, parabolas, inside references and other fancy linguistical shenanigans.
In person I sometimes laugh in the face of ridiculousness if it's apparent enough.
When last few times I recall, the individuals got mad at my laughing suggesting I was dismissing them which at those points I to an extent was.
Sometimes people say things I understand to be so ridiculous I almost can't help but laugh.
Sometimes understanding what other people don't? Can carry a hefty hrumph. But rarely is it ever negative, only twice do i remember people acting angrily at laughter of something silly.
I've done a million silly things and laugh at myself a lot nowadays. Some of the shit I say or do in person is bonkers, but I enjoy my own company and make the most of it at times.

I've been in a relationship for right at 3 years (roughly 5 days away since our first date), and though it has perks and pleasures, I find myself missing the company of myself,.just myself. I have no desire to cheat or go find another partner. I just really enjoy being alone, for many reasons....one of them being I find communication INCREDIBLY hard, and often not worth the effort involved, regardless of outcomes. This can be both healthy and unhealthy. On the flip side, two.of the guys I work with, I have been working with off/on for 13 years. Sometimes we communicate great, other times we don't. But sometimes that communication can mean life or death on the job.

I've had similar experiences. I think it seemed crass and the other person was sensitive about the subject, which is fine, but it was also taken to mean more than it actually was. Meaning to say they took it to mean I was laughing at them rather than being able to see more than one purpose to laughing.
Not the best way to communicate when it's a serious matter and the other person is already wound up.

These days, online expressions of laughter, (ROFLMAO, fountains of tears emoji's, etc) are often used in an attempt to demean someone as being stupid (having dumb ignorant views). The psychological motivations for this type of online laughter are often quite different than spontaneous in person laughter. Online laughter is sometimes a disguise for anger. Online laughter is often trolling. An attempt to trigger anger - in retaliation for feeling disturbed. You made me angry so I'm going to try to make you mad.
Online expressions of laughter being used to demean someone has become so commonplace that it's often difficult to take such expressions as fun, lighthearted, and frivolous.
