In generalities, I noticed alot of threads going up about telling jokes.

I was reading reader's digest and had a idea for making cash.

If you tell a true life story that is drop-dead funny or you have a clean joke that insures a laugh every time you tell it, then send it to reader's digest and depending how funny it is and if it gets published, then you could get 50-300 dollars in checks.

Maxium Magizine offers the same deal too except you can win 50-200 dollars in checks.

If you have a joke or a life story that is funny but you are unsure about grammar or if it's funny or not, then post it up here and the readers of totse will tell you if it is funny and if the grammar is up to publishing standards.

If totse members like it, then you can be sure it's ok to send it in to reader's digest or Maxium.
If we think your joke stinks, try again.

what if a totse member likes it so they take it and send it to a magazine?

Then dont post on the joke this thread if that is your concern. Send it to reader's digest or maxuim instead.

but still whos gunna post their funny story that they could be making money off of on the internet where anyone else could just look at it and take it, you think people are gunna read it and be like oh yeah thats really do send it it in? no their gunna send it in and make some money for themselfs

Hardly the bad idea. Going to Printed Matter.
