Hey guys, I write for Cracked.

It's awesome. It got me two internships this summer. It's the proudest thing I've ever done. Now I want to help some of the super talented, funny writers here do the same!
1) Go here:

You'll have to make an account first. Do so, and post a message in the thread saying you would like to sign up. You can make a joke if you want...but no one will care.
It will take about two-three days to gain access to the workshop. The workshop is basically a hidden section of the forum where all the ideas are pitched. I'll go over in more detail what goes on there, but just know that it's difficult, complicated, and will make you a much better writer.
If it's like Tuesday/Wedensday and you still don't have access to the workshop (your forum title will be changed to "Purveyor of D*** jokes" once you have. Post in that thread again. Sometimes they miss people.
While we wait for people to gain access, I'll take any questions yall have. You can post any ideas you have here, just remember that they have to be list based, fact based, and not rely on any sort of goofy character style. Only columnists get to write subjectively.
