How to be funny?
Watch chandler bing
Everything is funny as long as it is happening to someone else
"ancient Greek funny man"
Disco
The horse and the coconut example is literally Michael Palin's idea in Monty Python and the Holy Grail. But instead of it being comedic writing, it was due to the limitations of the budget. Now that's funny
what's the deal with the gossip about a nun using a pickle as a vibrator?
The animator/s probably had a blast illustrating and animating these scenes
"Things that have a 'K' sound are funny"
cries in C name
It’s also about timing
Title: How to make your writing funnier.
Me: D-I-S-C-O!
While teaching comedy, they show us comedy.
2:07 A baby crying isn't funny. A nun praying isn't funny. A cat purring isn't funny. 👉🏻🧠😏

Ted: There's nothing in the world that's so irresistibly contagious as laughter and humor"
Me who studies medicine in Oxford: Phd
Moral: Make your characters go to disco.
When I tried comedy it was more why than funny. The story was about Remmy from ratatouille and his bRo'z ganging up on a kid.
and Disco….
The 80s Sitcom Blackadder shows that something can be funny purely by how it’s described.
For example: “Baldrick, does it have to be this way? Our valued friendship ending with me cutting you up into strips and telling the prince that you walked over a very sharp cattle grid in an extremely heavy hat?”
Dark Humor: 😏
Disco very.
The secret to comedy is misery. Find me a joke about something good I dare you.
Hi Super…………..

I don't know… these ideas sound good, but the video is everything except funny so…

dear comment section
is "4" the correct answer the following equation in 1:36
try drawing funny
perchance
it would have been funny if the examples were funny.
the fact that the virginity of the examples made them too lackluster.
as well as the fact that there was an atempt to make whats already funny into a joke,which defeats the purpoce if we take the " surprise rule" . how about instead, take somrting normal, and combine it with something else for more funny.
a priest, a polititian and a doctor walk into a bar, and the bartender sais-" god do i have coconuts"
(and god was that a joke worth aborting)
1:18 That statue got a weird lookin weenie
