Do you have a humor blog?? What is your definition of a humor blog?

The reason I ask is that over at humorbloggers.com we are gathering an army of humor bloggers for next month's HUGE campaign against our foe, Injustice.

Several members of BC are also members of HBDC so this is also an open invitation for those of you with humor blogs to join us and become members.

(MY definition of Humor Blog - A blog which is written with the sole purpose of making the reader lol.)

We are an inclusive directory for quality control, however, so not everyone can join. It is nothing personal, unless you are not funny and easily offended by us saying as much.

If you've applied to HBDC before and been turned down, don't worry, just reapply. Up until recently I was completely removed from voting new members in, but those days are over.

If you have a consistently funny blog that isn't full of ads and can make ME lol you're in.

That is all.

PS. I am easily amused.

    Must be the recession or MJ's death. Everybody's lost their sense of humor.
    1. offendedblogger
      This is why I take it upon myself to gather my army to bring the funny to the masses!
  2. MissSuzie
    I consider myself a humor blogger (perhaps a mean one, but one nonetheless) and I agree with your definition.
    1. offendedblogger
      I shall check you out. *wink*
    2. offendedblogger
      Oooh! You can be my top commander, so long as you don't mind wearing one of these:

    3. MissSuzie
      Wow! My ass would look great in that!
    4. scenexg
      It looks like a sexy spin on I Love Lucy. I (heart) Nazi.
    5. offendedblogger
      That is no Nazi! She is wearing a Buddhist peace symbol.
  3. dbowles1017
    F HBDC. They said I wasn't good enough.
    I am going to aid in the side of Injustice!

    ATTICA! ATTICA! ATTICA! ATTICA!
    1. offendedblogger
      Yes but our voting panel were a bunch of hacks when you applied, so I fired them.

    2. MissSuzie
      @db: Not as awesome as you thought you were, huh?
    3. dbowles1017
      TLOIP (The league of injustice people) have already gotten my full support!

      Suzie- Well, I only had 2 posts when I applied... ;p
    4. offendedblogger
      Well I'm afraid you are going to get trampled by a horde of girls before this thread is over, Mr. D. B. Traitor!!
    5. dbowles1017
      Do you promise? I wouldnt mind a horde of girls...
    6. ThriftShopRomantic
      He's been begging girls to trample him for weeks now, Chelle.
    7. offendedblogger
      Hmm, then maybe we should refrain from trampling him so he will join our side and fight against the Injustice he felt when we didn't trample him!

      Damn, I should be a psychiatrist.
    8. dbowles1017
      Damn you injustice... always so injust... and junk
    9. JamieLay
      I already slept with everyone over at HBDC....I would recommended it.
  4. sjtavo
    I would consider my blog humorous - from a smart-ass perspective....LOL
    1. offendedblogger
      THOSE ARE THE BEST KIND!!!

      From my perspective.
    2. offendedblogger
      Ha! We already have your male counterpart at HBDC so you must join.
  5. nothingprofound
    Even though my blog is not a humor blog (though highly whimsical) I want to apply because my creativity feeds on rejection.
    1. offendedblogger
      I will save you the extra trouble:

    2. ThriftShopRomantic
      I don't know if that's the saddest or the most optimistic thing I've seen all day, NP.
    3. nothingprofound
      Excellent. That should be good for three aphorisms at least.
    4. offendedblogger
      I agree, Jenn, we need to somehow use that quote at HBDC...
    5. nothingprofound
      TSR-actually the most playful and ironic.

      OB-use it. I love seeing my quotes all over the internet.
    6. ThriftShopRomantic
      Hey!-- how do you know what else I've seen today? Are you following me?
    7. nothingprofound
      Not yet. But I'll be glad to.
    8. ThriftShopRomantic
      Now I'm going to have to keep my eyes peeled for a dude who looks like Walt Whitman.
    9. nothingprofound
      Good. That way you'll never recognize me.
    10. edgecrosser
      @nothingprofound

      yours rock! you may not think its humour, but it gives smiles to all your readers. cheers!
  6. Cindi
    I have two humor blogs... My Brown Bag blog does have ads because my evil sponsor makes me, but my sole purpose is to educate using facts AND humor.
    1. offendedblogger
      Well your one with ads has that ugly NO FUN IN THE DEEP END OF THE POOL thumbshot that Blogger throws up, which would look bad on HBDC and the other isn't updated often enough (yet at least) but you are on the list of potentials!
  7. DrJuliaChicken
    Blog's sole purpose to make you LOL?

    My sole purpose is to entertain myself... Ordinarily, on a one on one type of thing, if someone doesn't laugh at what I say I usually repeat it until they do. But that doesn't work as well with the written word. That doesn't work as well with the written word. See?

    Still, I hope that some will find amusement in something that I have written.

    I'll check it out - sounds like fun!

    Lora
    1. dbowles1017
      Look who's back... and still not a doctor...
    2. DrJuliaChicken
      Didn't know I was gone - Glad you found me.

      BTW, you really ought to see a doctor concerning your obsession with doctors. While you're there, have him look at those red growths you've got going on.
  8. activeleisure
    Just submitted my info yesterday. I make myself chuckle, that's gotta count for something??!!
    1. offendedblogger
      Oh! Well I'll go find you in the list and check you out.
    2. activeleisure
      Thanks! I submitted my Hubby Diaries blog. Hope you enjoy!
  9. yourhypnotist
    My blog is not humerous but to anyone who has a funny blog, keep doing a great job because I love reading them
  10. RoflopagosIsland
    I already tried...they no likey me over there. What's wrong with short, pithy prose guys? I get the roflcoptors hovering. What gives?
    1. scenexg
      What!? They turned YOU DOWN?! I got to see what this is about.
    2. offendedblogger
      I've not yet been to your blog either, that I can remember. However, I am partial to crude humor and blogs which aren't chocked full of ads. Also it helps if you wear a kilt.
  11. tarraslovan
    My blogs are hilarious and I think I got turned down awhile back.
    Oh well.
  12. cookingasshole
    Screw that! I was rejected and I want nothing to do that that stupid site! Solidarity against humorbloggers.com!!!!
    1. DollinNYC
      just re-apply so they can turn you down again and laugh at you. again.
    2. cookingasshole
      I will not give them the gratification!
    3. DollinNYC
      no they said just re-apply.
    4. cookingasshole
      They can't tell me what to do!
    5. DollinNYC
      I think they are telling people to re-apply so they can reject and laugh at them again. try it.
    6. cookingasshole
      pass...I don't need any more rejection in my life
    7. DollinNYC
      o woe is me.
    8. cookingasshole
      LOL!! Cry me a f*cking river baby!
    9. DollinNYC
      ok Eeyore. wah wah
    10. cookingasshole
      long story short, humorbloggers sucks ass!
    11. DollinNYC
      ok then we are in agreement about something. West Coast also sucks ass.
    12. cookingasshole
      For the record the East Coast is for uptight prissy ass punks while the West Coast is for everyone chill and laid back.
    13. DollinNYC
      um have you ever been to Los Angeles???
    14. cookingasshole
      sorry...Pacific Northwest
    15. offendedblogger
      Who could possibly reject you? I shall look into this injustice!

      Wait, are you one of those "kiss my ad$$$$$" spammers? Cuz we reject all of those...
  13. nothingprofound
    CA-if they hadn't rejected you, you wouldn't be the bright star you are today.
    1. cookingasshole
      I am no star! I am like one of those meteor fields in which everything gets destroyed.
    2. nothingprofound
      You see how fame (or is it rejection)has gone to your head.
    3. cookingasshole
      rejection...
    4. DollinNYC
      Debbie Downer: Hey, does anyone have a banana?

      Friend #1: What?

      Debbie Downer: Well, if I don't get enough potassium every day, I awaken in the middle of the night by crippling leg cramps.

      (higher-pitched wah wahhhhhhh; zoom in)

      (everyone looks pissed off)

      Debbie Downer: By the way, it's official -- they've located my birth mother. Deceased.

      (deeper wah wahhhhhhhh; zoom in on a particularly painful facial expression)
    5. cookingasshole
      are you making fun of me Doll?
    6. DollinNYC
      um...no. I was referring to someone else.
  14. kat822
    Don't feel bad CA I was rejected too but for not updating enough, damn that chell has some high standards!
    1. cookingasshole
      her standards SUCK!
    2. DollinNYC
      a new high in lows...
    3. offendedblogger
      That's right, and if members don't log in or update their blogs they get das boot as well.

      No free rides!
  15. kat822
    come on CA Offended is great, I am glad to have her back even if my awesome blog is a Humor Blogger reject!
    1. cookingasshole
      oh...is that who that is? Well then, hey! Offended! Why are you hating on my blog, huh?
    2. DollinNYC
      pfft. she will not answer the likes of YOU!
    3. offendedblogger
      Well I have not ever been to your blog, but your taste in British sitcoms does make me question your sanity...
  16. dfunzy
    I was misled. I thought here is where they were handing the free packs of good-for-nothings. In a moment of weakness I wandered over, because I think it is about time I got something for free. After reading a few posts, I think this might be a secret organization plotting to crack a good man's funny bone, and I want no part of it.
    But before I turn you down, I am going to give you a chance to turn me down, so I can write about it. My blog site is Looking For Laughs at www.lookingforlaughs.org

    I'm going to tell you out front, if you have dues. I won't pay them. If there is a funny uniform we must buy, I'm not buying one.
    If there is a funny song we must learn, I don't sing. I can't carry a tune. But wait. I really am getting ahead of myself. I could be turned down, rejected, told that my blog doesn't measure up. Well, that will give me enough material for two blog posts.
    1. MadMadMargo
      Well, we do have a secret handshake.....
    2. JoelKlebanoff
      A secret handshake? Nobody ever showed me the secret handshake! Do you think they're trying to tell me something?
    3. offendedblogger
      Um, uh, secret handshake? Joel, she is babbling nonsense. There is no secret handshake.

      There is, however, that one small requirement that all male members must wear kilts or be made into eunuchs.
    4. JoelKlebanoff
      If you'll excuse me, I've got to run out and buy a kilt. I don't know how I've been able to be a member this long and keep my boys, but I don't want to lose them now.
  17. sorcerer
    yeah..if a blog post can make you laugh!
  18. MrRadio
    Nice post but I can write humour maybe it's only suitable for my real life daily stuff. One require some command over the lingo.
  19. dfunzy
    I applied. Well, as I had expected, though a new link may have helped with traffic, I wasn't disappointed, when I received a message at 8:31 PM, this evening, informing me that my blog had been rejected by the pharasies. Well, they don't call themselves pharasies, but that is what they are.

    "Young man," these high lords and ladies wrote, "We are looking "for established blogs..." Your started, when boy? Aug 30th of this years? Do you expect us to consider such a green whippersnapper like you? We check the "number of comments per post." Boy, you have your comment thingamig turned off, why? We look "for consistent humor with the sole intent to be humorous," boy. You have too much politics, philosophy. Is that funny, boy? We look for, "consistency."

    "Consistency in posting is important-not the number of post per week."
    That means don't think too much, stay on the subject of humor, boy. HAHHA.

    And the secret panel of shadow people wrote, "Other factors also are looked at in determining whether the panel thinks the blog falls within guidelines of HBDC." What those factors are is our business. Goodbye. Improve yourself and we will look at you again.

    Well, no thanks. My blog is what it is. It is me saying what I want to say, the way I want to say it. I just don't conform. Never have, never will.
    Getting serious, the HBDC has a good idea, a link up of comedy blogs. Maybe us HBDC rejects can exchange links and have our own link up. Those interested in exchanges links send a message to my in box.
    1. offendedblogger
      I am the secret panel of shadow people!

      OK, not really, I keep them in the basement. Good luck with your endeavor.
  20. COOLINGSTAR9
    Am I qualified for that?
    1. offendedblogger
      Apply at HBDC and find out.
  21. dfunzy
    No rules. No standards. Everybody is qualified.
    1. offendedblogger
      EVEN ME?!?!?!?
  22. edgecrosser
    i don't know if my travel and movie blogs are funny, below average i think. haven't updated yet because i'm still too tied-up with my work, but i will soon.
  23. JoelKlebanoff
    To all of those complaining that HBDC's standards are too high, consider this: I've been a member for quite some time. How high can its standards be?

    Here are a couple of hints for getting accepted:
    1) If you're a guy, promise to wear a kilt. Don't worry, nobody checks. At least, they haven't so far.
    2) If you're a guy, promise to be Chelle's sex slave. Unfortunately, she hasn't taken me up on that yet. But I live in hope.
  24. moooooog35
    As a proud member of HBDC, I can tell you that it's WAY worth it.

    (I owe Chelle money)
  25. CatLadyLarew
    Okay, I'll admit it. I was rejected by HBDC, but I still love the bloggers there and read a whole mess of them on a regular basis. I figured they just didn't want any more vague, scatter-brained bloggers. Or maybe the Quirkster was worried I'd try to steal her Dr. Pepper. I felt bad for awhile, but got over it. Tried to apply again, but it just said they already had my application... which had been rejected. *sound of sobs and wailing* Next time I'll have to take Joel's advice and offer to be Chelle's sex slave, although since I'm a female it might not be as enticing as if it were Joel or Moog offering.
  26. CatLadyLarew
    Okay, so it looks like I'm now Chelle's sex slave. Thanks, guys!
  27. brianomaracroft
    I maintain a humor blog, because if I didn't write about what I thought was totally bizarre in this world I'd be a total crabass all the time, my wife and kids would leave me and I'd run out of booze before realizing I wouldn't have a car. Oh, I also do it because I have a book coming out and it would suck if nobody read it.
