'for a laugh' scheint die Bedeutung zu haben: zum Scherz, zum Spaß also: Ich sagte ihnen aus/im/zum Spaß / Scherz, ... But this doesn't implies that they will laugh! Some jokes aren't very funny ;)

Beachte auch den richtigen Satzbau im Deutschen: Ich habe ihnen - diesen Witz/diesen Scherz/... - aus Spaß gesagt.
