Have you ever had a pet do something that made you laugh so hard you cried?
Why people ask this
Questions about losing control of an emotion are hard to fake — the yes always comes with a specific memory attached. Pet stories are universally disarming, which is why this question shows up in icebreakers — it works on people who do not even own animals. On have.you, this question draws players from every kind of setting — parties, road trips, dinners, late-night calls — which is why the same question reads differently every time. The interesting part is rarely the answer itself; it is the follow-up, the story behind the yes, or the surprised reaction when someone answers the opposite of what everyone expected.
