How you sound when you know you aren't supposed to laugh at a very inappropriate joke told in public.
Jason: and then the <ethnic or racially inappropriate reference> said, I've got none.

A type of laugh, typically from a woman, that is not genuine when used; maybe be used in response to a bosses joke or a potential partners joke, in which he/she did not genuinely find funny, but was used to show acknowledgment in hopes the boss or potential partner becomes fond of you; can be used in a disingenuous way without the other party knowing it was disingenuous; used to flirt without intention of developing a romantic connection; used for personal gain, typically in a job setting

Similar to WTF but more of a lighthearted, easy going feel. Its also used in a more humorous way, like you cant believe something that funny just happened. It can also be shortened to What the Laugh or WTL?
This morning a guy bicylced by me on a 10 foot unicycle, the only thing i could respond with was What the laugh was that?

Ex1. A child runs full speed, screaming annoyingly into a glass door. All present adults horror laugh before enjoying the silence and checking for a pulse.
Ex2. Tommy, "Yeah, so I thought the night couldn't get much worse after I slipped and fell ass first onto her new suction cup dildo....Until she pat me on the back and said that it was 'meant for me the whole time'..."
Jack, *horror laugh* "Ohhhohoh...haha awww that heh heh. That's sucks buddy."

Exhibiting the same level of enthusiasm and volume when engaged in a perceived moment of humor by one member of a conversation
He showed me a picture of Yoda with a grammar book in his lap and burst into obnoxious laughter, I couldn't muster the energy to match-laugh.
