I've heard "laughed like a drain" here in Zild although it's certainly not common usage. I've always fondly imagined that it was a kind of gurgling laugh, a cross between a full-bellied laugh and a giggle. Maybe a drainiggle?

My limerick contribution, although logically, I think it came from a cork ...

There was a young senhor from Spain
Whose very heart was removed and displain
When he asked if it hurt
As the blood pooled and spurt
He just sat up and laughed like a drain.

God, why do I do these things?
