I just chuckled myself

Wait. What? What did I just say? This is a phrase that I made up approximately ten years ago. It means to think or say something so funny that you make yourself laugh. Uproariously laugh. To the point that it is difficult to speak and explain what is so funny. To the point that people in the other room think you must be sobbing because what person laughs so hard and so long while they are sitting alone in a room.

I was preparing and editing pictures for a crop tomorrow and I want to do a page about Charlie in the Bjorn. I have many Bjorn pictures. So I am running out of titles. So I called this one Bjorn again. And thus, I chuckled myself. And here endith the lesson.

That is funny. Very funny.

It should be pointed out that you didn't just casually coin the phrase "I chuckled myself." You had, in fact, chuckled yourself (although we didn't yet know what to call it), and were laughing so hard that you couldn't coherently explain that you had made yourself laugh. You garbled, in between fits of hysteria, "I... chuckled...myself."

And the phrase was bjorn.

(and now i chuckled myself)
