I'll say up front that the substack I'm mentioning is one of mine. I write science and tech humor on substack. My column last Tuesday discussed the demise of the Neanderthals, proposing a new theory that cannot possibly be proved (although it makes perfect sense and is definitely correct!). Actually two theories. Plus other stuff. If a billionaire reads the column, they may be inspired to pursue a horribly unethical project which I would only want a small fee for bringing to their attention.

Not gonna lie everything I write is funny as shit but I think “I’m a lady in the sheets but a freak in the streets” is my best one:

This one made me guffaw quite a bit. The title is pretty self explanatory. Here, Katie Nissen explains how and why she zapped herself with an electric lighter, which seems like a foolish thing for a person to do.

This is an awesome idea for a post and I’m looking forward to checking out the recommendations. My link is certainly not the funniest I’ve ever read, but it was an attempt at humor. I hope you won’t begrudge me using your post as a shameless attempt at self promotion.

Haha pretty funny. Giving each person a card they have to turn in when they complain is awesome.

It usually gets the job done. They learn to let the little things go after a week or two

I can't remember specific posts, but Scoot; Michael S. Atkinson; Alexander Ipfelkofer; and Alexander Hellene have written some very amusing stories. As far as my own funniest post, I'd have to go with this one:

If you're bold, appreciate the surreal and a tight, action-packed writing style, then you might get this. I think the title pretty much lets you know what kind of content this will be and what type of humour. I read it twice and laughed out loud, snorting. It's kind of porn absurdist. https://open.substack.com/pub/franktbird/p/i-stuck-my-dong-in-a-gloryhole-to?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android&r=p3krk

Coffee & Covid pretty much every morning. Matt Taibbi can be hilarious, too.

This is mine and is my kind of humor. Either no one likes it or it has not gotten enough attention, or both.
