    What makes us cry is universal, but what makes us laugh, isn't.

    Nope. I watched a documentary where they were teaching people in India how to laugh like westerners - the whole "ha ha ha" thing. They wanted to fit in more. So, no.

    It's genetically programmed into all humans. While there are differences in what we think is funny or sad, the expressions are so similiar that they couldn't be cultural. Find one group of people anywhere in the world that frowns when happy.
