"EVERYTHING HUMAN IS PATHETIC. THE SECRET SOURCE OF HUMOUR ITSELF IS NOT JOY BUT SORROW. THERE IS NO HUMOUR IN HEAVEN" - Mark Twain.

 

To continue with the humour theme, or lack of it, I looked at 10 each of the recent posts written by bloggers and measured them for humour content. The results are as follows:

Richard's Bass Bag * 

1. Why do I keep saying...                                                 
2. "I love you Richard."                                                     
3. Monday.                                                                         
4. Nice one!                                                                       
5. I slept in!                                                                       
6. We march forward. aka Ring the bell for hell.              
7. "Go to Hell!"                                                                 
8. Hell's Bowels.                                                                
9. Off to work.                                                                    
10. Two days without practising, but I'm just having a...     

No, no humour in any of those although, in "I slept in" his recounting how he had to hide his teddy bear from his friends was funny though, albeit in a pathos kind of way.

ROB

1. Saturday
2. "The Everlasting Man" G K Chesterton
3. Purgatory
4. hell...the last judgement
5. So what makes hell so very bad?
6. hell .... de Stefano. How and why souls go to hell.

Hell no! Humour was on holiday in those and even the author himself didn't have a chuckle. You might have noticed that there are only 6 recent posts as, per usual, he 'flushed' all the previous ones away (I hope that he washed his hands afterwards).

THE CURMUDGEON

1. THINGS TO DO IN WELLINGTON #1
2. HE'S BACK!
3. GONE
4. INTERVIEW #32
5. MAGA MAN
6. THE WORLD IS GETTING STUPIDER
7. SEA MOORING*
8. MAKING PURE NICER = PRURIENCE
9. LIGHTEN UP PART ONE (Maybe of a series)
10. NEW POST - THE RELIGIOUS CURMUDGEON

Ha ha ... what a hoot. Unbiased as I am I managed to find humour in 5 of those most recent posts - that's a whopping 50%!

I trust that you found that interesting as I know that you readers like statistics and reports of how the blogs are going.

Stay posted (and posting**).
