Variations

Crying from laughter

This expression depicts tears forming from laughing too hard, with

a smiling face as the base to which lowered brows are added. When

laughing to an extreme, the face uses different muscles from a typical

run-of-the-mill laugh, which can cause tears to form in the same way

as they may when yawning. Adding tears makes it easy to convey the

intensity of the character’s laughter.

The following examples show overreactions, where tears emphasize the magnitude of the laughter.
