What makes laughing such a positive thing?

Conditioning: Laughing is usually in response to external stimuli, especially in response to social situations. Laughing or something like it starts early in infancy and mothers and dads smile and laugh with their children which is a type of condition. Some think it opens certain aspects of the cerebral circulation which enhances well being. Laughing is the nucleus of sit-coms on tv.
