Medium makes me laugh the same way showing up at an open-mic night full of amateur "poets" at the coffee shop makes me laugh.
You mean the "laughing for 5 seconds and then burying your head in your hands" way?
Probably more like laughing for 5 seconds, then standing there awkwardly for another 120 seconds, then getting your coffee and getting the hell out of there as quickly as possible way.

My guess was pretty much the complete opposite. That's rather uncomforting.
--- False Medium or Real Medium !?! ---
1) "Yes, Vagina, There Is No Such Thing as Normal"
2) "I Tattooed My Friend’s Name On My Head…And Then We Broke Up"
3) "Living With a Cracked iPhone Screen"
4) "Changing Condom Culture"
5) "A Night at the Laundromat"
6) "In which the NSA and I freak each other out on LinkedIn"
Some of these are really from Medium, some are from the parody FalseMedium [1]. Can you guess which ones are fake?! (Answers [2])
