SUSPENDED! by Steve Nadis

My career as a blogger, which looked so promising just a day ago, received a terrible blow this morning. My site on the “Funny Humor Writing WebRing” was suspended. The “ringmaster” cited various technical reasons for this decision — have to bring my SSNB code up to a “full pass rating” and make sure my site code is “in a good placement within the HTML code of your joining website page”–but I suspect the true reason is that it just wasn’t funny enough. Perhaps I shot too high. Perhaps I overreached. I should have applied to the plain old “Humor Writing WebRing,” but instead I had to go for the “Funny Humor Writing WebRing.” What a setback. What a slap in the face. And it had all looked so promising just a day ago…

    Don‘t be so sad. The whole notion of "funny humor" sounds like a joke to me, and not necessarily a funny one.

    Thanks for the encouragement. The thing about me is I only want to join clubs that won‘t have me.

    I think I‘m funny and I don‘t belong to any humor thingy. If I don‘t need it, then you don‘t need it. Funny means different things to different people. There are some comedians that people think are funny and I could just slit my wrists trying to endure them.
    I like volleyball too. I used to be a good player, but now I just watch and admire the skills of others.

    I‘m not playing much volleyball myself these days but hope to get back to it soon. You could say I‘m working on my "inner game."
