Make Me Laugh Challenge

It was bound to happen sooner or later. Today I wrote my 150th ficlet. So, it seems that it’s about time for another challenge!

So, here is your mission, should you choose to accept it.

Write a story or poem that makes me laugh out loud. I’m not talking giggles. I’m talking hysterics.

I will judge the stories on my birthday, May 25th.

So, what I’m basically saying is if you were wondering what to get me for my birthday, well, now you know what I like.

By the way, I like most types of humor. For example, I love highbrow humor, absurd humor, slap stick, satire, etc.

I’ve read some hilarious stories from many of you, my fellow ficleteers, so I’m hanging on the edge of my seat in anticipation of what’s to come!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Enter as often as you like! And be awesome! This ficlet will (probably not) self-destruct in five seconds…

    Ach!

    Has anyone else noticed that it’s extremely hard to make someone laugh when you know you have to make them laugh?

    When I’m done brainstorming, I’ll definitely enter.

    Nice idea for a challenge. I also find that intentionally being funny is sometimes much harder than it coming spontaneously.

    But I suppose that is the writer’s eternal challenge: Selling something that you might not be feeling at that point.

    Pontification over, I have added a stand-up routine entry.

    Not entirely pleased with my entry. It sounded funnier in my head. (That ever happen to you? No? Oh well…)

    I will announce the results later today! I didn’t anticipate quite so many entries, so it’s taking me a while to re-peruse them. ;)
