church giggles

Uncontrolable laughter in an inappropriate situation. Coined by comedian Kathy Griffin.
Julie: Sorry I couldn't make it to Tim's funeral yesterday. How was it?

Bill: Oh, it was really sad, but the worst part was when I got a case of the church giggles during the burial. I don't know where it came from, but I couldn't stop laughing.

Julie: You're sick, you know that? He was your best friend!

Bill: Oh like you've never gotten the church giggles before. Need I remind you of your nephew's briss?

church giggles

A habit of children and immature adults to find things with little or no comedic value hilarious when bored in church in order to entertain themselves.
A brother and sister are sitting in church, begrudgingly listening to a sermon until the preacher says: "god owns everything from here to Uranus.."; at which point the two children attempt to silence their uncontrollable laughter. These two kids suffer from church giggles.
