uw,

I don't mind your laughing at very old jokes.

Try one of two alternatives: I don't mind you laughing ...

OR

I don't mind your laughs ...

Now that it is established that you're not one to be critiquing use of the English language ...

But it is not an excuse to speak in incomplete sentences.

I make no excuses. I also didn't speak.

Besides, laughing at very old jokes is not to be minded for the same reason that listening to very old music or reading very old books is not to be minded. And by the way, considering the number of people that get paid to write incomplete sentences, I'm really wondering what planet you come from.
