Might be more who know in the book section.

I'd try googling it or looking on Amazon.com, I usually older books that way.

Wait... is that the title of the book, or are you talking about the author R.L. Stine's books (as in Goosebumps)?

Hi Superboy 2,
The short R.L. Stine book "Don't Make Me Laugh" was included
in bags of Doritos chips back in 1995 as an introduction to Stine's
"Goosebumps".
It was a short story about 2 friends who called themselves the
"Laugh Police" because they went around holding kids down and tickling
them to hysterics for fun.
Then space aliens come down and kidnapped the 2 boys, telling them
they were watching their "technique" to cause laughter. The alien king
of their planet was unable to laugh so had sent his subjects far and
wide, searching the galaxies for someone that could make him laugh.
Anyhow the 2 boys were brought before the king. They tried
all their tickling techniques on him but the king never cracked a smile.
The story ends with the two boys being taken to a "disintegrator"
because they had failed. The last line is "I didn't know whether to
laugh or cry."
This little book caused an uproar in our neighborhood as it
gave kids the idea to become "laugh police" and people were getting
tickled silly all over the place. I was a victim of 3 friends who got
me a few times, and it was wicked torture.
The book has disappeared; (I guess people threw them away
or something) and gradually the insane tickle-torture fad died down.
You're the first person I heard of that remembers it. And no, we
don't have our copy anymore either...the LAUGH POLICE got it!
