DC Comedy Writers Group: The Nuclear Option
https://us02web.zoom.us/j/9969288414


Icebreaker: Some small problem in your life (fact or fiction) that provokes an over-the-top reaction.

Examples:

I wrote one bad opening sentence and lost faith in the paragraph.

I misspelled broccoli on the grocery list, and frankly, it’s not in my life anymore.

I knit one wrong stitch in row four and had to go to confession to seek forgiveness from God. The priest looked at the scarf and would not give me absolution.



Exercise: Start Over. 

Write jokes where repeated restarting is the real problem.

Examples: 

I’ve restarted my computer so many times that my CPU hyperventilates.

I don’t write thank-you cards. I outsource legibility. I buy thank-you cards in bulk so my handwriting doesn’t get a vote.

I don’t repeat self-destructive patterns. I relaunch them. They get version numbers: Bad Boyfriend  7.6.1

DC Comedy Writers Group: Trash Talk

https://us02web.zoom.us/j/9969288414


Icebreaker: What’s in your junk drawer?

Examples: Menus from take-out restaurants when all I do is order from Uber Eats.

A broken chain, knotted, that I swore I would straighten out someday, like my life.

All of the dried-up pens that I stole from work.


Exercise: Personify your trash can. Allow it to judge you or give you unsolicited advice.

Examples: You say you’re decluttering, but you just moved it to recycling like a coward.

I don’t stink. What you are smelling is the truth that you don’t want to face.

Compost is just a hippy word for rotting vegetables.

(If the exercise does not spark joy, use the idea of trash as an inspiration for jokes.)
