RWHN's Sit-Down Comedy

[Mangrove]

Did you hear about the Discordian? No? Exactly my point.

You gotta cut me some slack.  Two days in a row I've been in long meetings filled with UNG!  This is kind of like my version of yoga and meditation. 

And no, there are no jokes in this post. 

I can believe the bit about meditation.
While the humor style drives me to the edge of violence, I am impressed by the speed and precision with which you whip these out. It's the "catching flies with chopsticks" of words.

so this discordian walks into a bar,
and the place seems almost completely deserted
says the barman "take any barstool you like, there's 99% empty space anyway"

a bloodbath ensued.

I think a lot of it has to do with people I've known and grown up with.  My grandmother had a very dry sense of humor and was always cracking jokes.  Some days it comes easy, others it's just not there.  I think it has to do with air pressure or something.

I've thought about sending in submissions to Readers Digest for fun.
(ex. Life In These United States, Laughter the Best Medicine, etc.)

They would be twisted and make little though.

For Instance:
Did you hear about the deaf coal miner?
He gave blow-jobs behind the machines after 5!

What do you call a kielbasa with no mustard?
What I ate after I murdered my ex-girlfriend!

i once organized an event for my old students association called "the international day of the bad joke"

one preparation i did for it, just to get my pun muscles loose, was in the weeks before, i wouldn't miss any chance of making a bad joke or pun, and actually make it, no matter how bad it was, or even if it wasn't quite finished but just went "something about about an ooze-fish .. you know, because it .. get it?"

only when the event was actually over, i was having so much fun, i never quit it.

what i also found is that the alcohol residue in your blood on a good hangover day really really helps maintaining that lucid punnive state of mind.

Actually, this is quite true.

I have a friend who I always wanted to go to Sunday Brunch with* because he'd be really hung over, and his bitter, cynical, bad-joke side would be shining through.  It was awesome to behold.
















*Usually at a bar.

Hmm, and I rarely drink.  Perhaps I need to drink more and post more.

You think we hate you now?

[Mangrove]

RWHN - the history of drink/post and drug/post hasn't been pretty.

Give it a shot. Either you'll produce something of staggering genius or you'll draw fire from Lys for a couple of hours.

One of these days, I'm going to admit that I'm often drunk when I post here.










But not today.

[Triple Zero]

i think it's the combination of still having a slight buzz, some sickness and the cold hard sadism that comes naturally from feeling like that.

mang: nah the point is he's gonna post AFTER he's been thoroughly wasted for some hours, then got some bad sleep and wakes up with a spinning aching head

[AFK]

Yeah, I think I'll just stick with my current pun-ethic.
If it ain't broke, don't fix it right?
Am I right?

Sounds like you partake in that of the liquid lunch more often than not.

Man, if I drank at work, I'd get fired, and not for being intoxicated, just for running my fucking mouth at borrowers.

[AFK]

Well, I drank a little last night.  But I'm not hungover.  And I don't feel funnier.  In fact, I can't think of anything funny to say at all.
