I think that's a good way of putting it, Zanooda.  I mentioned 
yesterday that I could see myself laughing in that situation, as long 
as the person wasn't in dire need or personal danger, and I surely 
don't think Snape was.  And while he may not have been in dire need 
or personal danger in the underwear memory, it would have been a much 
more intensely & personally embarrassing situation than the bucking 
broom, so less laughable, I agree.

SSSusan:
Good point and it does raise the question:  *Did* we ever see Snape 
laughing in the series?  I truly can't recall a time, off the top of 
my head.
