Howl (with laughter) 9-magnitude
Burst out laughing - 8-magnitude
Gawfaw  = 7-magnitude
Yuk = 6-magnitude
Cackle = 5-magnitude

Sophy's Laughing Richter Magnitude Scale refers to a number of ways you can assign a single expression to quantify the energie contained in a laugh. 

In all cases, the laugh is a base-10 farcical scale obtained by calculating the logarithm of the amplitude of tee-hee's measured by a chimerical holographic image of mythical gadget. A laugh that measures 5.0 on Sophy's Laughing Richter Magnitude Scale has a jiggling, wobbling, rocking, swaying, convulsing amplitude of 10 times larger than one that measures 4.0. Both a 5.0 and 4.0 are capable of producing the dreaded, but hilarious MFN effect...
