By the way, that’s not how you spell American

In this piece, I’m giving you tips on how to win ‘Slackjaw Humor Writing Challenge 2020 — The Rules!’. It’s dead easy, but I haven’t got the time to do it myself so I’m telling you how to get there and I expect 63% of your cash prize. TIA.

My first tip is guaranteeing you that you will win this. Do not share this tip with anyone. That’s step 0 though because I said it’d be only one step.

Step #1: No fake onions

Secondly, I suggest you follow every step, step by step, and that’s how you win. These know-it-all Americans think they know humour. They believe they can ask you to write comedy following rules (lol!)← (that’s how you make sure you don’t write too many words. I’m giving you that one for free, thank me later!). For example, rule 1 states that you shouldn’t write on a fake onion and to make sure you’re exact on single authors.

“No fake-onion style pieces.”

“Must be single-authored.”
