Is there another word for this?

Laughtrap - v. chuckling aloud to oneself in an effort to snare others into asking what is being laughed about, thereby enabling the chuckler to share a mildly amusing video, photo or a long-winded, unfunny story that usually results in the chuckler saying defensively “I guess you had to be there”; using fake laughter to draw attention to oneself.
