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 entries and some of them get selected for inclusion to their online site.
WH is keeping with their spooky season vibe for this week's contest. And again, I was all in, submitting 18 and getting 6 listened on their website. A lot of solid entries, even though there was some overlap with previous games like "Silly Cereals" or "Terror Toys." I don't care for the way WH features their own "entries" on the "winners" list and I swear they add some after the game starts, because I swear I read what they posted, and I wind up duplicating some of their jokes anyway. Well, you should check out the punnery at:
