Awesome! Round 9 already?? I think I missed out on Round 8 lol. Bring on the funny, people!!

We missed you too. Come over to discord some time... Be a judge in round 10... you know... whatever.

*plays it nonchalant but burning inside with nerves

Round 9! Fight!

Thank you @comedyopenmic for the opportunity, I wish everyone good luck!

You're welcome megafart

I won't ask you how you got your name. I'll just stand a safe distance infront of you.

congrats on your win @serkagan, you did a good one in round8!

I'm really glad I saw @nobyeni's entry come up in my feed a while back. I'm pretty sure that entering the #comedyopenmic contest and hanging out in the discord channel are two of the main things that have kept me on steemit lately.

@holybranches is gonna cry, then I'm gonna cry, then we're all gonna cry! Wait...that's not from that movie. Damn, this comment is all over the place - more mixed metaphors than an infinitely long roller-coaster full of monkeys trying to shill their updated script for Julius Caesar (with @ned as Caesar and @dan as Brutus).

Now I just need to focus for the next round. So much going on just in the bubble of steemit alone. But what is to be done, eh?

oh shoot, i dont have tear buds

Yes! It's time for philosophers to be funny!

There's a first time for everything.

Actually I just finished my post on why philosophers are funny, I'm sure you will agree: https://steemit.com/comedyopenmic/@nobyeni/a-list-of-why-philosophers-think-they-are-funny-comedyopenmic-round-9

why philsophers.jpg

It's my philosophy to disagree with philosophers about what's funny

Letss roll out the funnies now. My balls have been itching for this round

change your boxers

Wow it's round 9 already. Where does the time go? Good luck to all this week!

i hate you, stop reminding all of us that we're all getting older

#peterpan

They say all your cells are renewed every 7 years so are we really old? I don't get older I get stronger! Maybe if you followed the same route you would have the energy to write your first post and you wouldn't be taking so many rest weeks old man!

burned by bitty hate you more now!
