Make Me Laugh!

I'm feeling down and need to be cheered up. So present me with your best comedy! I don't care the genre or length, though I read slow so the longer it is the less likely I'll finish it before the contest is over.

The winner will be the one who actually makes me laugh out loud, which is not easy to do.

I like witty humor and word play the best.

I really dislike bathroom humor and bashing so you'd do best to not submit if there is any.

Please no romantic comedies because romance is what got me down to begin with.

Don't just enter a bunch of jokes, at least try to string them together into a story of some sort.

I'm sorry I don't have that many points to give. Rewards will go up if I get more points before the contest is over.

No rules really, who needs them? However, if I can't read it, I won't find it funny, so I'd recommend against excessive misspellings, chat speak, swearing and whatnot (unless that's part of the joke).

I'll try to comment on each one, but no promises that the comment will be helpful. This is my first contest so bear with me.

Is that all? Hmmm... Oh yeah... Good luck and most importantly have fun!

        You never know. I normally don't do funny but when challenged I can normally just write about my crazy life or the inner workings of my brain and it comes out hilarious.
