Professional Writing Humor
Writing humor professionally can be a lot of fun. It can be a great way to relieve stress, or it could be a fun way to have a good time with your peers. In the business place humor is in memo's and e-mails. Some people go as far as to have a website devoted to writing humor. Now there job is not to write humor they have real job's like me and you. They could be a manager a nuclear weapons training facility. Such as this man John Kinde he is that manager and he runs a website that is devoted to funny one liners.
"John has devoted considerable time to the study and mastery of humor skills, and he also leads the improv comedy troupe I joined earlier this year. He employs a variety of rules and methods for coming up with funny lines, but his techniques are so well internalized that it’s hard to detect that he’s using a rule-based method at all, even if you watch for it."
John loves humor he even went as far as creating a website for it. he has contest for his co-workers and anyone else willing to participate in them. Recently he had a contest for one liners on his website, and the theme was "what life has taught me". The winning post was “No matter how sexy your spouse is, at some point you’re going to have to talk with each other.”
If you like to have fun in life and make funny observations about life then maybe you should be like John and start your own website. Some day someone could be doing a story on you about your funny website.
