Well, in a dystopian story, you could say 'The curfew is so early, the bats are still out when we have to be in. I think they're plotting against us too now.' Also, 'The food pellets they give us taste like recycled dreams. I'm not sure if that's a good or bad thing.' And 'The mind - control helmets? They look like really bad hair dryers. I bet they won't even style your hair while they mess with your thoughts.'
A character with a really strange phobia, like being afraid of round things. So every time they see a ball or a plate, they start screaming and running away. It's a simple yet effective way to add humor.
Sure. One example is friendship. True friends are there through thick and thin, and their presence adds so much to our life story. Another is achieving our dreams. When we work hard and reach our goals, it becomes a significant part of our story. And of course, having a positive attitude towards life. It can turn difficult situations into opportunities for growth.
One might be 'Black lives matter'. This simple yet powerful statement is a key part of the modern black narrative, highlighting the need for equal treatment and respect for black lives. Another could be 'We've got our own style and it's something to be proud of', emphasizing cultural pride.
Losing a home can be extremely sad. For instance, in stories about natural disasters or war, characters might be forced to leave their houses. They lose the place full of memories and a sense of security. In 'The Grapes of Wrath', the Joad family loses their farm, and their journey to find a new place is filled with hardship and sadness.
How about a character who is constantly getting lost in the most obvious places? They could be in a small room and still be unable to find the door. Or a group of pirates who are terrified of a little kitten on their ship. It's the contrast between their tough image and their fear that makes it funny.
Sure. There was a kid who told his mom that he couldn't go to bed because his teddy bear wasn't tired yet. He was so concerned about his teddy's feelings.
I saw a face in the mirror. But I was alone in the room. It was a face I didn't recognize, with hollow eyes and a strange grin. It made my blood run cold as I stared back at it, not knowing what it could be or where it came from.
How about 'My story is like a rollercoaster, but I left my stomach at the first drop.' This is humorous as it uses the analogy of a rollercoaster, which is known for its thrilling and sometimes stomach - churning rides, and adds a funny twist that the person has lost their stomach at the start.
