Weekly Humorist, a humor magazine I often submit to and occasionally get in, runs these Hashtag Games on Twitter (X), where they name a topic and we submit humorous responses. These games play right into my gag reflex, so I always throw up something. I've taken to setting my calendar to get online every Wednesday to "play" (and by "play" I mean submit content to their website for free--I like to think of it as pun bono work). I always submit a bunch of them on X (Twitter) and some of them get selected for inclusion to their online site.
Weekly Humorist seems to be going through some things. They used to post the "winners" of the hashtag games Wednesday night/Thursday morning. Then they started delaying it. I thought they were releasing it the day before the latest game, to keep things hopping. Now, they went back to a quicker release, but I got busy and couldn't address that. But I'll sit on it until Tuesday anyway.
It was a cute topic. But again, WH posted a lot of them and really forced we minions to hustle to create new ones. A couple of jokes popped right up. Then I did some via research. And then when I thought I was done, a couple more popped up and I posted them late in the day. It kind of devolved into a more general "bad" boardgames, as did mine. But there were some very funny ones. Check it out!
