A Carryover is what one may experience instead of a hangover. Instead of waking up feeling like your balls are frosted, you wake up in the same state you went to bed: Absolutely liquored.

when a TV show, movie, or real-life event causes you to laugh, but at the end of the joke, something serious is said that is NOT funny, and the laugh goes from good to uncomfortable
That joke about George W. Bush was so funny that I laughed for almost a minute, but by the time I recovered, they were talking about 9/11 and my carryover laugh made me look like an asshole.
