For this edition of Funny Friday, I thought I’d pull out some funny one frame cartoons for your enjoyment. So pull up a chair and get ready to laugh (or groan!) And, of course, everyone’s favorite! And finally, a little Pride and Prejudice humor! Happy Friday everyone! I sourced all these images from various pages on Pinterest.
*The Babylon Bee logo is copied from and owned by the Babylon Bee I love the Babylon Bee. For those unfamiliar with this company, Wikipedia describes them as “a conservative Christian news satire website that publishes satirical articles on topics including religion, politics, current events, and public figures,” which is a fairly accurate description. Others accuse them of being far-right, conspiracy theorists, bigots, white supremacists, etc. which, in my humble opinion, is a great, steaming, pile of crap. Babylon Bee…
Above image copied from http://waichingsthoughts81.blogspot.com/2017/04/weekend-tv-movie-review-airplane-1980.html In case you ‘re confused, I want to talk about the movie Airplane!, one of funniest and most irreverent movies ever made in my humble opinion. The trailer is just a taste of the sheer zaniness of this flick. It was written and directed by Jerry Zucker, Jim Abrahams, and David Zucker. This trio also gave us such gems as The Kentucky Fried Movie and, my all time favorite television series, Police Squad, which spawned the Naked Gun…
I thought I’d finish off the season with a last few jokes to send you on your way into the new year, jokes I’ve searched for high and low from every corner of the internet! While I will allow you to judge whether these are the best (or worst) ever, I hope you will enjoy this last post of the Christmas season! What goes “Oh, oh, oh?” Santa walking backwards! (Cue the groans!) Why don’t snowmen get married? Because they…
Clem Kadiddlehopper, Sheriff Deadeye, Gertrude and Heathcliff, Freddie the Freeloader. These were characters created by Red Skelton, one of the finest comedians who ever lived. The Red Skelton Comedy Hour, which aired every Tuesday night at 8 pm, brought me home from whatever I was involved in. My family, all seven of us until 1969, when my brother Jann was born, all gathered around the television set to see which characters would appear on the show each week. I always…
With everything happening in the world right now, I decided we all need something to brighten our day. To that end, I went online in search of innocuous jokes (or Dad jokes, if you will). I was looking for humor innocent enough that nobody would take offense to, but corny enough to tickle your funny bone. My journeys took me to The Country Living site and a page titled “80 Hilariously Funny Jokes to Make Your Friends and Family Laugh”….
In this episode of Funny Friday, I thought I’d talk about funny as in “weird” rather than funny as in haha. I’ve often spoken about the different parts of the writing process and how I do in the various parts. I do pretty well in outlining, but it’s fairly hot and cold. If I get an idea, I can run with it, but it will sometimes take me a while to get into outlining a story. Editing, proofing, grammar checking…
Just a simple post to tickle your funny bone. Get ready to laugh. (Or groan, depending on what sort of humor you like!) What did the writer say when he glued himself to his book? That’s my story and I’m sticking to it. What’s the best college degree to become a successful fiction writer? Journalism! What do communism and an essay writer who plays no sport have in common? They work on paper, but not in practice….
Today I want to talk about Douglas Adams’ science fiction masterpiece, The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. I discovered the novel a few years after its publication and fell in love with his irreverent and quirky sense of humor. I cannot remember where or when I found this book, but what I do remember is the strange looks my wife gave me as I giggled and chortled my way through it. Yes, it is classed as science fiction, but the plot is…
For Funny Friday, I thought I would present you with a quotes smorgasbord! I do have some notable favorites on the types of people who tickle my funny bone, but I hope you enjoy them nonetheless! “The only way to keep your health is to eat what you don’t want, drink what you don’t like, and do what you’d rather not.” –Mark Twain “They say such nice things about people at their funerals that it makes me sad…
