Humor
- Humor is undefinable, it comes in a million different forms from a pre-thought joke, to a random event, to dry sarcasm, so no one can really define what makes something funny. So here are some rules, although no one can ever prove why they work.
- Pickle, Chicken, Alka-seltzer, Buick. All these words are funny, and all these words have a hard k or c sound, coincidence? No, it turns out that words with a hard k or c or just funny.
- Timing, things that re surprising are commonly funny so putting a pause before the end line will excite the reader's attention and make it more funny.
- Always put the punch line at the end, don't continue after.
- Funny Ironic headlines, they're all short!
- Man Struck By Lightning Faces Battery Charge
- Police Begin Campaign to Run Down Jaywalkers
- Iraqi Head Seeks Arms
- Be witty, your characters should have the nerve to say things that aren't perfectly politically correct all the time.
- Random fact
- Many funny writers are OCD that spent a lot of time alone as kids!
