I’m putting together a Humor Survey to give to some of the people that make me laugh the most.
I’m going to ask them things like…
+ What shows/books/people do you remember laughing at the most when you were a kid?
+ When did you start to embrace the fact that you had the ability to make people laugh?
+ Where do you draw the line between what’s funny and what’s offensive?
…you know, things along those lines.
But, I need more questions, and that’s where you can help.
Is there something you’d like to ask one of your favorite humorists?
Say, for instance, that I was able to submit some questions to Matthew Paul Turner, Jason Boyett, or Donald Miller regarding humor, writing, jokes, laughter, comedy, and what (if anything) is has to do with their faith. What would you ask them?
Submit your questions in the comments and I’ll use as many as I can…

What is the funniest scene from a movie ever?
Funniest stand up bit you remember?
Who did you take cues from for physical humor/ expression, etc?
Is there such a thing as a funny pun?
i peed a little when i read your tweet. i don’t want to die – don’t get me wrong, i’m ready to meet Jesus, just don’t want to get on that bus yet.
hmmm, questions for a funny guy…who makes you laugh today? do you sign a commitment to use your powers for good and not evil? does your family think you’re funny? how do you utilize the gift of making people laugh (i really do think it’s a gift) within the church? what is the place of humor in the church? does God have a sense of humor? do you agree the Vintage 21 Jesus movies are the funniest thing put out by a church in the last 100 years? who’s funnier: spurgeon or luther?
speaking of pun, “Bryan Allaineeey?”
I came across this article this morning and thought of your humor survey. I’m not sure what you’re doing with your survey, but thought you might like to check it out..
