Another could be 'Cake, teeth, scream'. The idea is that something normal like a cake suddenly becomes terrifying when you think of teeth and a scream perhaps related to something hidden in the cake.
Sure. 'Final Breath' is one. It makes you think of someone taking their last gasp, which is quite terrifying in just two words.
As I said before, Ernest Hemingway's 'For sale: baby shoes, never worn' is a key origin example. It showed how much emotion and story could be packed into just six words.
Humorous narratives. This is a more general term for funny stories. A humorous narrative can be a long - form story, like a short story in a magazine that has a series of comical events and characters. It can also be a personal narrative that someone tells about a funny experience they had, such as a travel mishap that ended up being really funny when they tell it as a story with all the details of what went wrong and how they reacted.
Well, there's a story where a magician is trying to perform a disappearing act on stage. But instead of disappearing, he just gets his pants stuck in a trapdoor and has to hop around the stage trying to free himself while the audience laughs hysterically. That's a great funny end.
Sure. 'If you make a mountain out of a molehill, you might trip over it.' This is funny as it twists the common phrase and creates a humorous image of someone actually tripping over an overly - exaggerated problem.
Sure. For example, in a story about a clumsy thief. He finally managed to break into a big mansion. After searching everywhere for valuables, he found a note saying 'Ha! The real treasure is the friendship you could have made instead of stealing.' And then the police arrived because the owner had set up a trap just for fun.
Sure. Unexpected twists are a characteristic. For example, a character who seems to be the villain turns out to be the hero's long - lost friend. Another is humorous dialogue. When characters say things that are witty or have a double meaning. For instance, 'I used to be a baker, but I couldn't make enough dough.' And physical comedy can also be a characteristic, like a character slipping on a banana peel.
Sure! 'The cat thought the mouse was its new best friend. Little did it know, the mouse was just after the catnip stash.'
Well, if it's a story about a group of animals trying to build a house. A funny caption might be 'The beaver, the architect of the group, was more of a beaver-builder of chaos than a proper builder.' Here, it adds humor by playing on the beaver's role as a builder but showing it in a comical, incompetent way. The use of 'beaver - builder of chaos' creates a vivid and funny image in the reader's mind.
