Bloggers have, over the years, asked me how I manage to be consistently funny (lie). Did I have any tips for them to bump up their funny? Being lazy, I ignored those emails completely.
A few months ago I decided I did know a lot of tricks of the funny trade and wanted to share them. (lie) But then realized BlogHer 09 was having a panel on the same subject and I didn't want to usurp anything they were doing. Translation: Let someone else do the work.
But after it was over I'm still getting the same requests. What did they talk about during this panel? Anything I can steal and call my own? I do accept anonymous emails you know.
My advice has nothing to do with writing jokes, becoming a standup comic or how to survive living in condos with meth addicts and free-farters or as I like to refer to them, men.
My tips should be printed out and then immediately shredded lest David Sedaris is spending the night at your house, reads my advice and pukes all over them before he dies laughing. And not of natural causes. And if you don't know who he is, I can't help you.
So my Comedy Series will begin next week. GOD I hope I've come up with something by Monday. What's really depressing is that I'm actually funnier in person. Ask my mother, Crabby Appleton the Dream Crusher.
I've ordered t-shirts and already forgotten what sizes I asked for. I did stick a few XXL in there but if I may be so bold, put the cookies down before you die or I have to come to your house and eat them for you.
End of chat.
