    What we're looking for

    We want engaging, original humor content. We focus on satire, parody, and pieces from the perspective of a character.

    Here are some examples of the kind of work we're looking for:

    Why Women Should Remember To Smile

    Always keep in mind the kind of humor that people enjoy sharing with each other. Please limit your submissions to 1000 words or less. Shorter, conceptual pieces are also welcome.

    Inventive posts that stretch the comedic limits of BuzzFeed's formats are also encouraged. That includes quizzes, polls, image sliders, checklists, random name generators, and more.
