This person makes their remark and then waits. They look around with a smirk, eyebrows either raised or at half mast.
You have mere seconds to react. What do you do? Option 1: Indulge them. Squeeze out a laugh like it's you're duty. People do this with children who have yet to grasp humor. And they chuckle like they didn't just hear the kid tell the same knock-knock joke four times.
But I warn you: if you open door number 1, it will never be closed. You are now the target audience, to be held captive if necessary. You may also be subject to elbowing or winking from that point on.

Your laughter is a stamp of approval. Use it wisely.
Depending on your mood that day, or your relationship with the joker, you might not be too eager to encourage their behavior. I know I've felt like giving the Squidward look to someone before.
Be careful not to crush their spirits. You never know, they might make you laugh for real one day.
Not bad.
