How do you write funny things?
Also what books have made you laugh?
The last time I laughed during a book was in Blood Meridian from the juxtaposition of the gang going from killing natives to getting so hammered they party for days then get thrown out

Gravity's rainbow. Does someone know how to sing the banana song?
A confederacy of dunces.
I guess you should be a funny person in order to have that ability.

Christopher Moore - Fool
and David Sedaris. I'm not sorry especially this passage:
>I turn my back for two minutes and there you are with your tongue pressed against that light switch. Maybe they do that where you come from, but here in my classroom we don't leave our seats and lick things whenever we please. That is Miss Chestnut's light switch, and she likes to keep it dry. Would you like me to come over to your house and put my tongue on your light switches? Well, would you?”
>I tried to picture her in action, but my shoe was calling. Take me off, it whispered. Tap my heel against your forehead three times. Do it now, quick, no one will notice.
>“Well?” Miss Chestnut raised her faint, penciled eyebrows. “I'm asking you a question. Would you or would you not want me licking the light switches in your house?”
>I slipped off my shoe, pretending to examine the imprint on the heel.
>“You're going to hit yourself over the head with that shoe, aren't you?”
the last time I tried to read it to someone I couldn't pull it off because I kept fucking losing it.
Then again, what I find funny is usually like this- I imagine how funny a situation would be to be in a room and see it happen and THAT'S what I find funny. I don't know why
