Writing Funny......

[Cheebs]

See? You can lace that with "fucks" and it wouldn't be the least bit funny. Well, maybe just a bit...

That is actually highly-developed time release humor created by a team of mad scientists in their secret lair on the grassy island of a jug-handle deep within New Jersey. Rest assured, you will be paralyized by laughter about 12 years from now after reading it.

edit: I can't belive you actually took the time to re-write Trout on the Barstool, Flounder in the Pretzel Bowl.

Thanks for the feedback.

Mzo: Hmm... other people have found it funny. We're in the top 150 now. I guess you either do or don't.

[Tracer]

maybe it's the click through from your signature?

[Drewbacca]

I dunno. That URL doesn't stand out too much. I've been telling people about it and have gotten some good feedback and suggestions for the comic and I'm taking them all to heart.

Right now we're 86 or so out on the Top 150 webcomics listing. Pretty good.

Hmm... other people have found it funny

I'd love specific cited examples of instances people found humorous. I looked through them all. 2 things were kinda funny, but were quickly drowned out in a sea of lame:

1) a guy crapping out a Yoshi egg is, in and of itself, inherently funny.

2) the way the afro guy wear his sweatband 3/4 of the way up his 'fro.

And that is it. Work from there.

Specific cited examples?

1) like the Acclaim suits response to the good game comment made by the techie-like man.

2) People enjoyed the Chain of Command comic

3) I had one person say they really enjoyed the first comics punchline (only 2)

4) Several people loved the Sega - Namco comic, although a month or too late.

These are examples that I have talked to people about.

Like I said: You may not like the comic style, but other people do. (not all other people) Stormy gave us a compliment here on the boards too.

We're planning on doing more spoofs of games now, though. It's a lot easier to get away with just a couple of friends playing games or watching movies.

But I think spoofs are fun

TWC list resets every month, so a lot of comics make pushes early on but fall back down quickly. Be happy if it sticks around there for a few more weeks.

Actually Monty Python if kind of similar to Mel Brooks.

Nuh-uh. Other way round.

Python is GOD, and all things come from the Python team. That is, things are similar to THEM. They are not similar to anything.

Yeah, we'll definitely see. We were 300 last month or so before the reset with only like 1 weeks voting, if that. Right now we're 56.

Honestly, not as a strike against you or anything... I can't think of 20 funny internet comics let alone 86. I feel bad for whomever is at 1100th.
