Biden inhales smoke, high and giggly (8)

I believe the answer is:

jokesome

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'giggly' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot tell whether this works.

'biden inhales smoke high' is the wordplay.
'biden' becomes 'joe' (Joe Biden).
'inhales' is an insertion indicator (inserted letters are inhaled).
'high' indicates anagramming the letters (like drunk).
'smoke' is an anagram of 'kesom'.
'joe' going around 'kesom' is 'JOKESOME'.

'and' is the link.
