A Case Study in Absorbed Humor

I write this in the moments before the entire house collapses onto my head, I actually hear the groaning and creaking now. You see, everyone else in the three story building has fallen victim to my shovel-gunpowder-trampoline trap on the front stairs and is rather permanently incapacitated, I am afraid. On the plus side, the money and credit cards looted off of the slightly perforated bodies were put to good use growing an entire jungle and a half on the second and third floors of my house. Among palm trees, beach vistas, and masses of tropical birds and feral monkeys is a perpetual creek of water created with a superglue and styrofoam riverbank. I am afraid that the water has leaked out and leeched into the support structure of the entire house, rendering it similar to a large rectangular jello blob. Whenever I sneeze, I drop to the floor for fear of another wall socking me right in the jaw. Unfortunately, the feral monkeys have found the jello house rather appetizing and have been tucking in rather voraciously. The house will fall in moments.

Why was I able to google "jello house" and find something?

This is a passage loosely based on 27\6, an uproarious humour website featuring an Australian writer and designer who just loves being a butthead to everyone. I was demonstrating (mainly to myself) how easy it is to absorb humor from authors and works that you read. Some of my strongest influences? Bill Bryson, Cracked, Artemis Fowl, and now 27\6.
