RE: Writing Humor and How It Will Lead to My Death
Humour. I really need to start spelling that word properly again.
Steemit used to be far worse. I got a bit annoyed while feeling invisible when I started and since attention is important here I went all out and wrote one of the funniest joke blog posts around here. I titled it 'How to Fuck', then proceeded to teach people how to use the f-word. Someone had an f-word of their own and flagged that post into oblivion. I was called a low-life. I was told there wasn't a place for my work here... but I also made everyone else around laugh their asses off and that's when I got noticed by quite a few of the big voters and popular bloggers at the time. Good times.
As if "how to fuck nonameslefttouse" is now in my search history. I think the saddest part is that I didn't even find the post.
Your stories from school remind me of a time from my school life where the girl sat next to me in English wrote "AIDS" on a postit note and passed it around the classroom until it eventually found our violently feminist teacher. "who the fuck wrote this?" she asked. She eventually tracked it back to us, J just wouldn't own up thanks to her mother being a teacher in the school, but she was a teachers pet so the blame came down on me. Needless to say, I refused to take the blame and we kept the entire class in over lunch.
It was an awkward lunch, but I have nerves of steel.
