Author Topic: Just how does one "chuckle"? Fat Cramer Rich and flaky posted                        Over at newsarama, there's an interview with Paul Levitz, and the thing that really caught my attention was two instances where he [chuckle]s. It's such a Silver Age classic that I wonder if they put that it on purpose, instead of something like [laugh] - or nothing at all. So what is a chuckle. A "tee-hee"? "Hah hah"? Less guttural than a snort? -------------------- Holy Cats of Egypt!

I always thought that a chuckle had something to do with Chuck Taine, so I assumed that any time I eat so much that I need to loosen my belt, I'm "Chuckling" -------------------- Some people are like slinkys: not really good for anything, but they bring a smile to your face when you knock them down a flight of stairs From: Penthouse atop Levitz Hall, LMBP Plaza, Embassy Row, Legion World | Registered: Jul 2003  |  IP: Logged |  Set There's not a word yet, for old friends who've just met. posted                           I always thought of Scooby-Doo's laugh as a 'chuckle.'

I'm betting it will make you chuckle too... thus showing you how one "chuckles". It's a long read (three or so pages) but well worth it as it offers several different types of "chuckle" giving you an opportunity to study them all. -------------------- Something Filthy!

"But, this being Washington, conspiracy theories and political wisecracks were rampant in its aftermath. When Mr. Bush visited wounded soldiers at the Bethesda Naval Medical Center in the afternoon, a reporter asked just how Mr. Cheney managed to be in the president’s office at the time of the fire. Mr. Bush just chuckled." from the New York Times - all the news that's fit to chuckle over -------------------- Holy Cats of Egypt!
