One common element is absurd transformations. Like turning into an object or an animal in a really strange way. For example, becoming a walking cactus or a flying teapot.
Mixed - up settings are often in these dreams. You might find yourself in a jungle that also has elements of a modern city, like skyscrapers made of trees and cars that are actually giant bugs. This kind of surreal combination makes the dream both weird and funny. Also, characters with abnormal behaviors, like a talking cat that recites Shakespeare while dancing on its hind legs, are quite common.
Another common element is the distortion of time and space. You could be in a place where the floor is the sky and the ceiling is the ground. Or you might experience time going backwards or skipping around randomly. This can lead to really wacky and humorous situations, such as having a conversation with your past self who is wearing a clown suit and juggling bananas.
One time, I dreamt that I was a mermaid but instead of living in the ocean, I was in a bathtub. The bathtub was as big as an ocean though. I had a pet goldfish that could talk and it was teaching me how to swim better in that tiny - yet - huge bathtub world. It was really a strange and funny dream.
In one of my dreams, I was at a concert where all the musicians were animals. The lead singer was a parrot wearing a top hat and singing opera. The audience was made up of dancing plants. It was a really strange and hilarious dream.
I had this dream that I was a mermaid but instead of a fish tail, I had a long tail made of spaghetti. I was swimming in a sea of tomato sauce. And all the other mermaids had different food - for - tail combinations too. It was so outlandish and made me laugh when I woke up.
One common theme is having superpowers. For example, being able to fly or become invisible. It's exciting and often leads to hilarious situations. Another is talking animals. They can be very comical as they interact with humans in strange ways in dreams. And then there's the theme of being in a wacky, made - up world like a land of giant candies or a floating island.
The unique characters. In these stories, the characters often have strange quirks or behaviors. For instance, a character who only wears clothes made of bubble wrap. Their oddness adds to the overall charm and interest of the story. They are not your typical, normal characters, which makes the story stand out and be more interesting to read.
Unexpected animals or people in the background can be really funny. For example, a cat jumping onto your shoulder as you take a selfie.
In many funny scam stories, the scammers' lack of knowledge about the things they are scamming about can be humorous. For instance, if they are trying to sell a fake antique but give completely wrong historical details. Also, when they accidentally target the wrong person, like trying to scam a detective or someone who works in fraud prevention, that can be really funny as they end up getting caught right away.
There was this cat that got into the box of Christmas ornaments. When we found it, it was wearing a string of tinsel as a scarf and had a bauble stuck on its head. It looked like a very strange, festive feline. This cat just sat there, looking at us as if it was proud of its new look.
There was a town where all the street signs were painted with bright neon colors by an anonymous artist overnight. People woke up to a super colorful and really weird sight. It took the local council weeks to figure out who did it and in the meantime, the town became a bit of a tourist attraction for its strange new look.
A lady went to a coffee shop and ordered a latte. When the barista handed it to her, there was a heart - shaped foam on top. But as she walked to her table, the heart somehow morphed into what looked like a strange alien face. She couldn't stop laughing at how random it was.
