Summary

Doctor Funny is celebrating July as "Melons" Month, inviting humorous stories related to melons, breasts, and the mammary glands, with a playful warning against bird-related "tit" stories unless they're funny.

Abstract

The Doctor Funny publication is dedicating the month of July to the theme of melons, encouraging writers to submit amusing anecdotes and articles. While the primary focus is on melons, there is also an open call for stories that humorously address breasts or mammary glands, with a preference for medical perspectives given the name "Doctor" in the publication's title. The editorial team humorously emphasizes that bird-related "tit" stories are generally discouraged, unless they can elicit laughter. The publication hopes that the trending nature of melon-related topics on social media platforms like Twitter, using tags like #melon or #melons, could lead to increased visibility and viral success for the writers' contributions. They also suggest that contributing writers might become top writers under the "melon" tag on Medium due to the rarity of its use.

Opinions

  • The publication embraces humor related to melons and breasts but has a lighthearted aversion to bird-related content, unless it's humorous.
  • There is an underlying strategy suggested for writers to capitalize on trending topics and tags to gain visibility and potentially become top writers in niche categories.
  • The tone of the content is playful and irreverent, indicating a preference for edgy or risqué humor that pushes the boundaries of typical medical or nature writing.
  • The publication seems to encourage writers to be creative with their interpretations of the theme, suggesting that even medical discussions can be humorous if approached with wit.
  • There is a subtle challenge to writers to craft content that is attention-grabbing and shareable, with the potential for viral success if they can align their stories with current events or social media trends.

July is “Melons” Month at Doctor Funny

But keep your tits to yourself

We’re looking for boob, knocker, hooter, jug, chichi, stories. The funny kind.

If you must write about breasts or the mammary glands, OK fine. Be all medical about it. The pub does have the word “Doctor” in its name.

But under NO circumstances are you to stray into bird territory here. Tit stories will NOT be tolerated. (Yeah, of course they will, just not the bird kind of tit … probably. Unless of course you write funny about the bird kind of tits.)

If we’re all very lucky there’ll be some kind of melon-related news happening that’ll trend on twitter and you can tag #melon or #melons and your story will blow up and go viral like the over-sized pair of fun bags it is, (metaphorically of course).

And then you’ll be a famous melon-related writer. Who knows, maybe you’ll even become a top writer sporting the “melon” tag.

Hopefully Janet Jackson or this dude below will play along and create a newsworthy or trend-worthy stir.

Feel free to go double DD.

But, if you go triple XXX don’t expect your story to appear in Doctor Funny.

Get a grip on yourself people.

BTW — The tags “melon” and “melons” are rarely used on Medium. Just in case you want to play the whole “top writer” game. Ditto for the tag “Doctor Funny.”

Oh, in case you’re wondering, writing about big juicy melons is completely kosher as well. I hear that honeydews are hilarious.
