January 24, 2025 By Ludmila Gavranović The Đurđevac Herald Đurđevac, Croatia A recent poll conducted by the highly respected Institute for Generalized Panic and Widespread Disappointment (IGPWD) has revealed that nearly 90% of Gen Z participants are utterly befuddled by the concept of how to change a lightbulb.

As someone who’s also crafted award-winning humor for over 20 years, I’m always on the lookout for a “magic bullet” that will help inspire my next piece. What many people don’t know is behind every great humor yarn lies tons of research, a healthy helping of incongruity, and a bit of visual flair to drive home the message.
