You may have remembered all the way back in Blog 113, (stalker much? :P) I wrote about the 15 comedy contests I ran on Facebook. Well now it’s time to write about the latest 15, hopefully in a more neat and tidy manner. (If you check out my old blog, you’ll see it has a large section with no new paragraphs. I don’t want to go into the details, but that was and wasn’t my fault. I could have made amends, but my computer was really testing my patience, so I thought ‘screw it’). Anyway, I’ve posted some pretty funny things in my contests that I never shared on Wiedemann Comedy, so let’s get them published, here! Oh yes, and if you read a comment in brackets, ending with ’SFTF’, that means ‘Simon From The Future’. As in a comment I made just now, that never existed all that time ago. Let’s go! Oh yes, and contests alternate between stand-up based ones, and sketch ones. Let’s go!
Comedy Contest 16 Comments… (And scores).

Of course people say bags full of money are bombs. That’s because they want others to leave them alone and they want them for themselves! This video is both funny and a very handy lesson. (In hindsight, I don’t EXACTLY know what that comment means, but I do have a rough idea. If you follow the link and watch the video, I’m sure it would make complete sense - SFTF).

7th place is still rather amusing, it’s just a great month. Here domestic violence isn’t as funny as some guy getting mugged (read on), but both concepts are entertaining. Wait that didn’t sound good. Fortunately I don’t find either forms of violence funny in real life settings so maybe it doesn’t matter. (As always, clarification is essential).

Here’s the anecdote! It’s not great, but it IS something: When my hair grows longer into a large messy mop, I’m prone to bad hair days. But what can be done? Use a comb? Ha! Been there, done that, it doesn’t work. However, after scraping my hair in all directions to no avail and after a bit of experimentation, I’ve found something that does: Simple water. When things go wrong, just dampen the offending area and it should be sorted out for the rest of the day. Of course, hair gel companies will be furious at me for sharing such a valuable secret, but you can call me the Robin Hood of hair. A real working man’s hero, saving you money. Of course it’s hard to face the fact that wild and free-haired people like you and me have been exploited, so all I can say is ‘move on’.
Nexteroo!

I assumed it was the latter until the actor said her blanket was more green than blue. Nope, it is blue. This person is clearly crazy. (Yep, I screwed that comment up, making it hard to understand. Let’s try again… You know when… No, wait… You see… No. Ok, right, basically even though there was one actor, she made it look like there was two.

Time for another breather!! I heard on Youtube a couple of songs I really liked, so I had to get the full album off Amazon. Oh my God, a box-set of three releases by the band were selling for under £10! I had to get it. However, when I received it, not only did I find I didn’t like the two albums I never heard, I also realised I didn’t really like the one I listened to on Youtube. That was annoying. I mean the CDs are ALRIGHT, but kind of disappointing. Never mind, after visiting a charity shop, I did manage to find RATM’s debut album in good quality. I’ve had that one for years, but unfortunately the version I had was made of ultra-tacky cardboard, to ‘save the planet’ or whatever. To be honest, I considered it a bit of an embarrassment to my collection, and now it sits in the naughty corner of my room. >:(

An excellent video about cookies. There’s some subtle humour I didn’t even notice at first. Holding a cookie like a cigarette? Hm! It works! (I was being cheerful in that comment, but deep down I was scared of the world coming to its doom. As explained a while ago, you never really know if making someone a double winner will end everything, do you? Thank the lord, it doesn’t - SFTF).

A comedy routine delivered well, but it’s lacking in originality, a little. I hate to say this, but maybe you should be a bit more whacky (as in criminal) like some of the past comedians were.

However, don’t get too excited, Matt; you didn’t manage to beat all-time record holder Ian Brown and his score of 4.7! Will it ever be beaten? Who knows?? Byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!
