Chin-chin-cheroo

I have just afforded all my colleagues an almighty laugh by revealing my plans for tonight. 'Yes', I announced, 'I'm doing something really brilliant tonight.' Their interest duly piqued, I revealed, 'I'm going to get my chin hair lasered.' They erupted with laughter in a fashion which, were I a stand-up comedian, would have been truly gratifying and ensured that that gag made it through all 120 shows on my 120-date nationwide tour.

As it was, though, I just felt pleased that I'd afforded them such an enormous laugh (I hadn't expected them to find it that funny) and made them feel better about whatever plans they had for an unremarkable Thursday evening.
