Centered, spiritually mature Zen types don’t go in for loud sustained hysterical giggling in cafes and restaurants. Just saying. It’s great to hear people erupt in laughter once or twice, but I always look up and make a face when people do this repeatedly. The louder and more sustained the laughter in mixed company (i.e., with me around), the more emotionally repressed and spiritually suppressed the laugher(s).
