There was one on bad writing that produced some marvelously funny and awful original prose in a variety of common styles (romance, mystery, fantasy, etc...), but I can't recall its title.

Wow. Just re-read PEncils, Pter T's incredible homage to long, hard, closely held tools of inspiration. Beautiful stuff.

I tried to link to the original story of Cletus and the boys, but if you type "Cletus" into the search it explodes.

I am now typing this on library equipment.

I have had a good giggle at several threads at Mudcat over the years,but couldnt pin one down right now...

This morning I heard this joke on BBC television news that makes me giggle to myself everytime I think of it..

"An inflatable teacher,in an inflatable school gets called into the office to be reprimanded.....he's told by the inflatable headmaster that he's not just let himself down,and the pupils down,but the whole school down".....

The Mother of All BS Threads was hilarious in its infancy and adolescence. Unfortunately, it is now a wheezing geriatric with over 1000 posts and is only being kept alive by being fed minute daily crumbs of BS by a handful of die-hard whackos with very warped senses of humor. At this point it's probably only funny to those who are doing the feeding, but the first three hundred or so posts are gems of inspired insanity.

If you're interested in the guitar, then the Ask Dr.Guitar threads are hilarious.

There were several captioned "Humor Us", and they in turn have other humor links in them. That's intentional humor. If you want spontaneous BS humour try the Tavern series, especially the Steamboat story and the Mudcat Enterprise story for really terrific creative writing by bvright lights like LEJ, Jen Ellen and Peter T, Spaw, MM, etc. Classic threads like the discussion of Condoms started by Art Thieme are worth looking into.

'round these parts, podner, we don't cotton to 'best' and 'most' threads..*grin*...especially when there are too many to count! Some are funny, some are silly, some are bemusing.....and my memory is slipping!

If you want recent ones, do a search on "Martians"

Which thread made you laugh the loudest? Guffaw the greatest? Point me in the direction of those threads that you still think about now and then and get a chuckle over.

I could really use a good laugh.
