I was talking to areallystupidguy, and we both came to the conclusion that we both have cases of writers block. Any hints on how to make it go away?

subtopic: cleavage.

as if i knew what i was talking about

Member Rated:

option 1:
write about something important to you, something that moves you, even if the seriousness of the topic overtakes the intended humor-- such as porn. i always write about porn when i have writer's block.

option 2:
steal from somebody else's comics. revise them. turn them into a series. as long as you admit the original source somewhere in it, like in the title, then no one will mind. or if you don't want to attribute it to its rightful owner, then steal from boinky. he'll just spam your im, and if you're not into imming, then fuck it, who cares, not me, rob the fucker blind. that's what i do.

I look at writer's block the same way I look at constipation: I don't give a shit. Hahaha...just kidding.

But really, the thing with being constipated is that you some times have to force it, and sure you often get an ugly nugget of absolutely no value, but you have to keep going. You can't let yourself get overwhelmed by it. Just keep putting out crap until you start putting out stuff you like again. You're a donor, just delete the shitty comics when you're back on track, but write something everyday, even if it sucks. Chances are that you at least think of a funny thing a day, so make a comic out of it. I made some shitty comics today off of something I thought in traffic when a lady tried to beat the light with three cars in front of her (see Filing clerk, VIP-secret power).

I may have made this up or maybe I've heard someone say it and forgot, but it's writer's block, possessive. The writer owns the block, not the other way around. Don't let the block own you.

Also, do what graykane said.

Watch television. Every time someone says something stupid, write it down. Then write stupid comics about how stupid everyone is.

Christ, this has been old for weeks now. I can't figure out why boinky asking for ideas is so terrible for you.

When I'm out of ideas I mine other people's comics. Some of the funniest people on this site find inspiration in other users.

Why don't you and boinky just get a hotel room and either fight or fuck it out.

I try to quietly rip off those with more creativity than I in a way that is endearing enough to cover my ass.

This guy never lets things go.

P.S. I didn't use anyone's ideas after all and wrote the comic myself.

Sometimes one is aware of having nothing to say, despite wanting to have something to say. Some people call that "writer's block."

A simple formula: Writing = ass in chair.
