    How to make jokes! Yeah!

    Start with the punchline and work backwards.

    Anyone else have some tips?

    Tip 1: Jesus makes a great joke.

    Q: What does Jesus and a painting have in common?

    A: They both get nailed to wood.

    There are two rules to joke telling. The first rule is, always keep them in suspense.

    Some of the best "jokes" don't even have a punchline. You make people think you're heading toward a punchline, but you keep adding elaborately detailed and unnecessary digressions. The trick is to drag them along for a real long time, and then when they realize they've been cheated, and there actually is no punchline or point, I guess that's the punchline: "Ha, ha! I just made you listen to bunch a crap for no good reason."

    In my view, the best comedians are brutally honest, and can riff on just about anything.

    As good an example as any:
    Louis C.K. - Duck Vaginas - YouTube
