I was just wondering how many humor bloggers out there started their blog because there was no place to record and revisit the end products of their mental kodak moments? I mean, where else can you post a contraband really embarrasing picture of your mother in law and make the hilarious, yet quite in appropriate observations you just couldn't give voice to at the Easter family get together? I'm interested to know, cuz I'm the first on this list....

    I just do stuff like that in my personal blog, most of my family are technologically challenged and never read it anyways.

      Yeah I don't think my family (except my Dad) gets my humor, so i guess their all personal blogs to me:)

      I tell them I write potentially embarrassing stuff about them, but some of them just don't get that the world can read it too, heh.

    It's pretty much as you describe it, yep. I kept finding I had ideas for humor posts that wouldn't fit in my thrifty decorating blog without losing half that audience.

    The humor blog helps keep me sane. Or, er... lets me be not-sane in a friendly environment.

      It contains the 'crazy' in a creative outlet

    I started my humor blog because my family and friends said I should put my emails to them "out in the world" somewhere. So, yeah. I sort of needed another place to put my stories that they thought were too good to hide. I'm not sure they're "too good," though, but they're out there!

      They are excellent, every time I see a plastic bag I think of you
      There is one in a tree by my college that has been going for over a year now, heh.

      I find it hilarious that people think of me when they see a plastic bag. Also, when they think of bacon. I have been sent bacon links by email from people who say "Here's something for your bacon blog." I didn't realized how often I talked about bacon until they suggested I ran a bacon blog. Go figure.

      Hmmm. Now I want bacon.

    Since humor is SO subjective I guess we really do write for ourselves in this respect. As long as we have a rapt audience of one (ourselves) then we have done what we set out to do. I think it's good to go crazy in a creative way; that way your Andy Warhol 15 minutes of fame won't turn out to be a picture of you posted online at "Stupidest Criminals". An unflattering shot of you in a police lineup, jailed after having gone nuts and beat your neighbor in the head with a 15 lb sausage. That's not a good way to express your emotions:)

    I started one because my wife said I like to laugh at myself. So yeah, I guess I did start one to crack myself up!

    That's awesome, it's good to laugh isn't it!
