Ok.
Well what's your basis? What type of humor are you wanting to hit? Slapstick? Ironic? What what what?

Ok... well, my sense of humor is kind of really bad, so idk.
Uhm. I think that a person's humorous attributes tend to come out more when they're in an unusual situation. Taking people out of their comfort zones is funny to me. I don't know why.
I think culture clash is hilarious, too.

I really like plots like The Gay Factor, Drunk Texting, The Boy in the Striped Shirt

*has only read 3 chapters of Drunk Texting from that list*
I still say culture clash could be a lot of fun.
Anyone else have any suggestions for Paige? I see you lurkin.

You aren't talking about me, by any chance, Timothy?  Oh, gosh. I feel like I should help, since I'm supposed to be a Beta for 1D fans. But I'm not a alighthearted, funny fic writing kind of person. I've tried, and they always manage to take a darker spin. Le sigh. -snaps fingers- Nothing. I might have one tomorrow if I sleep on it. See, I have strange humor. I like the dark and sarcastic. And ironic. Irony's my fav. |

I find awkward humour to be very, very funny. I don't know why. I love it when characters are put into a very weird position and they just don't know what to do and clumsily fall over their words and thoughts, lol.
I have found it can be difficult to come up with ideas for stories like that, though. I guess the way to do it is think about which boy you'd like to write about and brainstorm on what would be a really awkward situation for him to be thrown into. That's just my type of humour though!

I'm currently writing a humorous fic as of now. So I think I can help.
Uh, def write situations that you wouldn't want to be in. It all depends on the character really.
You have to think like them and do things you wouldn't normally do.

I HAVE A BRILLIANT IDEA FOR ONE.
But I don't know if I want to let it go.
Then again, I have too many stories as is.
