Check out "The Sexy Dragon Buffet" in the humor section. It's the first humor piece I've ever written so critique and such is welcomed! :)

If this is improper, would somebody please PM and let me know? And, then please delete this post so I won't be totally humiliated. :)

I just ran across this thread and it looks like it's the place to post information about threads we've started in the SYW Humor genre - and to offer rep points to those who take time to read/critique. In case anyone's interested, I've started threads for:

02/24/07: "Colorful Granny"
02/24/07: "Thermostat Man"
03/16/07: "The Fine Art of Cleaning the Bird Cage"
04/01/07: "We're Having a Baby"

Need some feedback on this piece. It's my first attempt at writing humor. It started out as a gently humourous story for children, then devolved into Goldilocks and the Manson Family. Is it funny at all? I need to know.
Rep points for all - whether you love, like, hate, or are just meh.

Thanks.

I would really like some input on my piece, Saturday Sadists. It's a play on words for those that are worried about content.

Hi

I've got a post up in Nonfiction SYW, which I think is technically the correct place -- I gave the Mods overnight to disagree -- but is not the place where my intended audience lives.

As much as I'm enjoying the thought of serious essay-minded people wondering what the heck to make of it, I'd be so grateful if a Humor-person could swing by.

Buyer beware, tho: It's loooong for hopefully-funny. ~1650 words or so. And since a link'll jump straight to it, please note that it has some mild profanity and may or may not be a little sexually suggestive. It's here, assuming I inserted the link correctly.

(I was going to post it in Humor, but it's quite rough and I had these visions of people suggesting the kinds of changes that can't be made to NF.)

Thanks!
