Anyone remember ever seeing a site called "how to not laugh while being tickled"?

It used to be on the internet but it doesn't seem to be up anymore. Basically it was a short page written by a female college student explaining how to not laugh. One technique was concentrate on your breathing. I loved a part where she said "even if it does start to tickle, or if they use a more devious approach, concentrate on your breathing." Another was imagine that you're very angry at the person tickling you. Something about how the anger will make you feel less ticklish or something.

I remember there was no email address provided, or I would have emailed her and asked her if anyone has managed to get her to laugh since she learned these techniques. Or if she was accepting challenges 😀

You know, concentrating on your breathing is a very good suggestion. It has worked for me....for like 30 seconds 😉 I need to practice, I think.

Cap'n Q. - I've never heard of this. If you have the original article you ought to post it here. I'd love to read it. (I'd really love to have been the one to inspire the writer to post it!)

Chris - I love your signature pic! How about posting a larger version of it in the gallery section? If you do (or if you have) how about posting a link to it in this thread? Thanks - sole.

Interesting stuff, CQ, though I'm against anything that advises on how to not laugh while being tickled. 😛

I can usually hold it in and control the reaction during a gang tickling but, if someone's fingers manage to slip around to my belly, I flip out and let it rip! 😛
