Yes I do but I don't think it's exclusive to Asperger's syndrome in particular.

I'm more apt to either chuckle, or even laugh out loud if it's just over-the-top funny.

I have more of a hyena laugh at times. By that I mean when I'm nervous I'll let out a small "eheheh" laugh after I say something, or if I'm happy I'll let out a crazy sounding laugh sometimes.

Very much like this:

I agree. It's not exclusively an Aspergian thing.

It's usually done by people who feel constrained by the constraints of society.

Your English is pretty good. It's certainly much better than my Greek!

I don't think this is related to Asperger's. It's more your personality, IMO.
I giggle a lot too and sometimes for hours after I saw something to the point where people wonder if I'm nuts. I just constantly think about silly things (when i'm not doing silly things just for fun, I'm a prank master), and i notice funny details in my environment, there's always something entertaining in my mind.

I don't giggle and I am high most of the time so yeah if anything Aspergers makes you not giggle. I think I giggled the first week on drugs and than never again. I have a speech impediment though, and that sucks. I'd rather have the giggle.

I "often" laugh at a memory in public. I have had lots of other "abnormal" laughing experiences as well.
I used to be very afraid of the risk of getting laugh attacks when going to the dentist/hairdresser etc. when i was in my early teens. If something funny happend the same day, i would almost cancel the appointment in fear.

I also have an example from adultlife, of me reacting very different than NTs to a psychedelic compound.
I took mushrooms with two neurotypicals, i laughed almost nonstop for 6hours. They did not laugh at all =)
