A hilarious humor publication for all levels of humor writers. Follow publicationIt’s definitely not a scamIt’s always awesome to receive a gift of money. You can use it to buy whatever you want. This gift was 100 times better!I received a reply to one of my articles the other day. I blocked out the name and email because I’m greedy. I don’t want anyone else to cut into my inheritance. I’ve wanted some new earrings for a while, so this couldn’t have come at a more perfect time.

Zak is a true scaredy cat. He gets easily startled by just about anything. He’s mostly an indoor cat, but he’s had a few outdoor adventures. I live in the country, and we have quite a bit of room around me. My cat Zoe goes outside often. She spends about 50% of her time out there. She enjoys going out at night to hunt, roam, and whatnot. Zak goes out occasionally, too, and he also seems to prefer to go out in the evenings, but he spends most of his time inside.

When another humor writer takes your piece and runs with it—it’s an epic feeling. It’s the highest compliment because it generally means they thought it was so funny that it inspired their funny brain to start machinating on the topic. One of my fav humor writers from my Medium days, (he’s the comedic easter egg of Medium) did that before on a poem I wrote about micro penises. He wrote a comedic rebuttal.

A community for readers, writers, poets, satirists, creatives, and thinkers of thoughtsFollow publicationIt’s a lesson they didn’t intend to teachI was scrolling through TikTok last week (I can’t be productive all the time) and noticed many creators on Live feeds. It’s become a popular way of connecting with followers, but I vaguely recall one of the creators mentioning a contest. Whether due to my viewing patterns, the popularity, or the contest, I saw a LOT of Live feeds.

Lynn L. Alexander asks about amusing April answers. I hope these are entertaining enough, Lynn. If you had the money, would you want to go to space? Absolutely not! Unless they found another inhabitable planet. It would be cool to be among the first settlers of a new place. When was the last time you went to the movies? I saw Wicked, which I would see again… and again. I’ll be watching the next one in theaters too. Have you tried other writing platforms?

Member-only storyWRITING PROMPTEverything from Ferris wheels to The Flintstones to weinersBrandon Ellrich·FollowPublished inthe Challenged·3 min read·--Author’s photoIn the Challenged, Lynn L. Alexander asks about some favorites, but for me, she begins with a fear. How would you react if you were stuck at the top of a Ferris wheel? This scenario wouldn’t be fun for me because I don’t like heights. I’d prefer if it was a wheel with enclosed capsules.

SATIRE | LGBTQOr just give you a lookBrandon Ellrich·FollowPublished inThe Rainbow Road·2 min read·--Photo by Emiliano Vittoriosi on UnsplashI mean, girl…Smillew Rahcuef wrote about mansplaining. Basically, he mansplained mansplaining. Straight men are arrogant. They believe they have the answers to all of life’s problems and it’s their duty to tell you how to solve them — whether you ask for it or not. They’re the kings of hindsight and what-you-should-have-dones.

CATS | HUMORIt’s not going well and it’s only the beginning of FebruaryBrandon Ellrich·FollowPublished inCatness·2 min read·--Author's photoCat owners usually see their precious pussycats as flawless felines. A more objective view reveals some deviousness. We could all improve ourselves in various ways and that includes cats. Zoe is a huntress. She patrols the area around my home and frequently leaves mice (or parts of them) on my porch.
