With every fetish having a dedicated subreddit and every vagina a Gwyneth Paltrow candle scent, it's hard to believe sex isn't the most popular of all the cardinal sins—but by "sex" I don't mean any sexually-arousing experience…
Ace, glad you asked that question. If I was any more insecure I'd tell you that this is a gift from god and normies will have to settle for a writing style duller than shampoo instructions but instead I will say: this you can train.
If you wanna refine the wisecracking side of writing I would point you to a 1938 book called "Humor and Humanity" by Stephen Leacock because none of the modern ones explain humor properly. Well maybe that relatively-unknown 2010 book by Sally Holloway. Read that too.
Read about rhetoric devices on sound and rhythm. Read both Pat Pattison's books about songwriting until you understand metaphors.
Don't read Stephen King's memoir. It's a waste of time.
Do read "How to Write a Sentence," by Stanley Fish. You think you know but you don't.
Once you have the theory, you'll be now prepared to read good material with a technical eye, able to analyse and deconstruct.
Do this for 5-10 years and then scream in despair upon realising why you still don't have a career.
See I'm telling you where to find all the secrets because this is actually a whole lot of work and I have zero faith in strangers doing what I tell them.
Like any other chuckle-worthy sentence writer, I googled about it a bunch of times. I was never able to figure out how though. You are supposed to join a forum that doesn't exist anymore (I'm pretty sure it works like Hogwarts now—you can only join if formally invited over mail).
I wasn't planning to actually read a bunch and practice at it and cultivate it as a skill, but thank you for the response. Hopefully it helps someone else who's also wondering how to write that way. Also, I feel like this would be a good question for an FAQ, since I doubt I'm the first one to wonder at least how to write kinda like the Cracked writers do, and the way you write is similar imo.
Well there are many things pushing against population growth, this is just one of the many like cesaesarean section births (low limit number of births) becoming almost the norm, pushing (almost forced) medical procedures like the controversial mARN gene therapy and mislabeling them in something else, changing the classic family model with a male and female parents to a different model that can't have kids through sexual "education", confusing people about their sexuality starting from a very early age like kindergarten when it's easier etc ...
the tone of this reminds me a bit of Cracked.
"We may have come a long way from Pong and Mario, but some games stick to the roots by still being about bouncing balls and making body parts bigger."
Underrated joke.
Look around mate—everything's underrated here
I second and third that.
To find out more about one topic search for “porn induced erectile dysfunction.” That’s PIED.
And to think there was a time when men could effortlessly pop an erection over an ankle glimpse.
A simpler time.
Hey article writer, I'm curious: did you always write that way, and if not how did you learn to write that way?
Not only opinionated but similar to Cracked. I'm curious how people write that way, and whether it comes naturally to any of them.

But you got this, Ace. You got this.
Also, have you ever written for Cracked, or have you ever tried to?

No worries Ace some part of me wanted this comment to be out there anyway. Thanks for your time pal

Get out of your tech bubble. Also you can spam random email adress I provided.
lol the tech you used to leave this comment, you mean? Thanks for your time Di
Well, technically you didn't have sex for two years, so...
It wasn't mating season I guess
