Comedy Section - Prophet Banana - May 26, 2015
I'm a big fan of stand-up comedy and comedy writing. A section to share funny thoughts, bits, jokes, and stories would be a fun place for people like myself.
This wouldn't be a troll section. It's for users to develop their comedy skills.

I think this would be a great idea, I would definitely spend some time in this section if it was made.

Yes this would be awesome. One for the discussion and improvement of comedy.

As an idea for what the section would discuss.

Just use the Lounge for these type of discussions.
^. Plus I bet everyone will just copy jokes off the interwebs then a whole fucking flame war will start because they didn't make it up.

Your point? Copy pastas happen in all sections. Tutorials, rapping, etc.

There's a big difference between the two.
Comedy writing sparks laughter
trolling sparks an argument.

Trolling is not allowed on HF, if you want to troll you should go somewhere else.
Well aware and as I said this section isn't for trolls it's for people to develop their comedy writing skills and discuss comedy.
"Haha I fucked your mother, Hitler was a good man, lolzzzz"
^ That's not the type of posts this section will have.

To see originality would be intellectually enlightening. I am in favor of this suggestion!

The section you are suggesting will have no content.
"Inevitable". Unless you pull out a sheet displaying demographics, statistics, and other data proving this section won't have any success then please don't try to be a smart ass.

we already have a comedy section, it's called SRPP
* - Prophet Banana - May 26, 2015
If you look at the post above me -Sam- you will see Vodge has already constructed a very well-written joke with a unexpected punchline.
Well done Vodge. You've made me laugh.

If you're going to be doing stand-up, shouldn't you be in front of an audience at a bar?

we call this sit-down comedy. (for those on the short-bus because they're only half a person even when they stand)

One of the more stupid suggestions. It would just be filled with penis jokes and bad puns. Comedy is in the delivery which can't be communicated efficiently online unless you're actually speaking to someone.

Just buy into Instinct, you'll get a userbar too!
