Undercover Comedy

I thought about going undercover for an investigative piece. But then I realized my idea of going undercover was wearing sunglasses indoors. The only thing I uncovered was that I can't pull off the mysterious look without bumping into furniture.

Ink-Stained Mysteries

I bought a journalism handbook to unravel the mysteries of the trade. It turns out the only mystery is how to get rid of ink stains from your hands. I'm starting to think journalists wear those ink stains like badges of honor—like, Yes, I'm informed, and yes, I can't handle a pen properly.

Photographer's Phobia

I considered being a photojournalist, but my camera is afraid of commitment. Every time I point it at something, it autofocuses on commitment issues instead. My photo gallery is just a collection of blurry objects with a touch of emotional baggage.

Newsroom Nourishment

I overheard journalists talk about the importance of a well-balanced news diet. So, naturally, I had a salad with a side of conspiracy theories. I'm not sure if I'm well-informed, but I can tell you that lettuce might be involved in a cover-up.

Breaking News Breakdown

I decided to be a news anchor for a day. Breaking news: I broke down. Live on air. The prompter said economic downturn, but my emotional stability took a nosedive instead. Viewer discretion advised, folks.

Headline Headaches

Crafting a catchy headline is an art. I tried my hand at it, and the best I came up with was Local Man Eats Pizza Upside Down—Film at 11. Breaking news, indeed.

Late-Night Deadline Drama

Working on a deadline is like trying to defuse a bomb, except the bomb is a pile of papers, and the only explosion is the sound of my editor yelling. If journalism were a video game, I'd be stuck on the level where you have to beat the clock while trying not to spill coffee on your notes.

Journalism Jugglery

You know, I tried my hand at journalism once. It's like juggling, but instead of balls, it's facts. And let me tell you, dropping a fact is way more embarrassing than dropping a ball. Especially if it's a headline like, Local Man Discovers Socks Are Optional.

Exclusive Interview with My Fridge

I recently landed an exclusive interview with my fridge. Turns out it's been harboring some serious beef with the vegetable crisper. I asked for a comment, and it just hummed the theme song from Frozen. That's cold, even for a fridge.

Reporter's Regret

Ever notice how reporters always look so confident on TV? I tried reporting once, and my confidence lasted exactly until I mispronounced my own name. The headline the next day: Local Reporter Can't Even Report on Himself Correctly.
