Micro Fiction Prompt January 2023: Humor

Humor is an integral part of everybody’s life. Who doesn’t enjoy humor? Mark Twain said – “Humor is mankind’s greatest blessing.

If we look at it from the reader’s point of view. it seems pretty much easy to laugh at a joke. On the other side, it’s most difficult to create a joke that everyone can laugh at!

Every month in 2023, we will bring you one of your favorite genres to write a micro-fiction on. In January 2023, we would like you to write about Humor.

Below are the rules to be followed –

Not sure where to start? Here’s a piece to inspire you –

To Hell and Back

โ€œItโ€™s all the same. Every time I look around, I see the couples fighting. Itโ€™s like being trapped in the same old loop!โ€ The dead man said to God.

โ€œYou have been a lot. I do pity your situation.โ€

โ€œThank you, My Lord,โ€ said he as he squirmed.

โ€œWhat do you want now, heaven or hell or another life?โ€

โ€œHoney, Iโ€™ve been waiting for you, come soon!โ€ He overheard Godโ€™s wife calling him in.

Greedy for more, the man requested, โ€œAnother life with a beautiful and loving wife like yours.โ€

โ€œGranted.โ€ God made the judgment and left for his room.

The man sneaked in to overhear their conversation.

โ€œI told you many times I want my coffee in bed every morning. Now get the hell out and bring in my coffee.โ€

Shocked, he saw God leave his room in pity.

โ€œMaybe, hell would have been the right choice.โ€

Now, your turn!
