Frequently Asked Questions

Hey, I'm funnier than everyone in the world. How do I write for the site?

Step #1: Make a CollegeHumor profile.
Step #2: Click the 'Write an Article' link in the 'My Stuff' dropdown menu.
Step #3: Write something funny and hit publish. If your article gets a lot of 'likes' our editors will be alerted and give it a look. If it's really funny they'll move it to the front page. Money, fame and women will follow.

What's a featured writer and how come I'm not one?

To become a featured writer you'll have to write very well and very often. Our editors keep track of who's writing the best stuff and how often they're doing so. All the featured writers are hand picked by our editors and they're also all very, very strong.

Can I get paid to write articles?

Yup. Our best writers will get offered featured log ins which will allow them to pitch articles for money. To get offered a featured log in you simply need to be amazingly funny, post a lot of articles and show an unnatural commitment to writing comedy. That's about it.

I draw a funny cartoon, how can I get it on your site?

When you write an article you can also upload images. Large images look best at 314 px width and small ones look best at 150 px width. Make your cartoon an image and post it... it's that simple!

Haha, that article was funny! Can I copy it and put it in my blog and tell everyone I wrote it?

No.

That chick is hot, can I have her phone number / email / IM name / home address?

No.

Can I hold, like, $5? Just till Monday, dude. I swear.

Fine. Grab it out of our desk.
