How often are you expecting comedy from us as writers, Dave? I would like to pick this up, but I'm not sure if I'm able to produce articles at a constant rate. If this is more of a freelance thing, then I'd be on that like a thing....on...uhhh....a simile.

I actually have the bare bones of an article sitting on my hard drive that I was planning to polish up and send to Jay, but I stopped working on it when he left Cracked.  I guess now I have a reason to finish it.

I've sent a PM with a couple of my "articles". If I get the urge to write something long and funny, I'll tend to post it on pwot, so they're really just reedited posts of mine from the distant past.

I've got a few funny ideas for "Shut Ups," and a homemade "Hudd & Dini" I did really made my nephews chortle.

Do we have to write movie parodies?  I think something like "Harry Pottie and the Order of the Beatniks" would be funny.

Seriously, though, I think opening this up to the whole PWOT community is a cool idea.  Some of the stuff I read in these forums is a hundred times funnier than the professional crap that gets called "comedy" these days.

Bring it on, gentlemen and ladies...I stand (er, sit) ready to laugh!

Is this a one-time offer? It sounds like something that I would like to try my hand at, but I'm not sure how much time I have right now to try this.

So, is this something that you need to commit to right now, or is this a standing solicitation for potential content?

Are you saying you want to contribute, or that you're just happy other people are?

Let me know.

Given the quality of my posts, that's probably a good thing for me!

I'd love to have a crack at it. As it were. Yes, that is an indication of my awful, awful, Roger Mooreian sense of humour.

I'd give it a go, I suppose.  I tried some attempt at writing comedy.  I loved your movie reviews at the time, so I tried basically the same thing, along with some other stories and shit.

Well, I guess I'll try it too, though lord knows I haven't been funny since the operation. Who knew humor was linked to the pancreas?

Yeah! Sounds like a time! Would you accept a compilation of all my failed Craption entries?

Seriously, though, is there anything we should know? Do we do our own formatting? Are you looking for any specific topics or categories? Do we just PM you with our article or is there an addy?
