Greetings
This is our weekly showcase where we highlight posts in this community shared here in the last seven days. These are the posts that have impressed us at COM the most.
Before we get into this week's showcase.
Let's Welcome @Merit Ahama to our Team
Many of you might recognize her time as an ex-CIA agent and real-life Black Widow which the character in the Avengers was based on. Others may recognize her for her stint as the queen of England between 1982 and 1987. Or for the time she broke the record by killing 89 people with the same bullet.
But, I am guessing most of you just recognize her as a Hive user only so we'll save the other accolades as they're not as impressive as winning two categories in the COMedy Rumble!
@merit.ahama will be helping us moderate the COMmunity as well as curate some of the posts as the number of members is increasing.
Please welcome her and see if you can show her love or bribe her if you're looking to get curated.
Where are our other names?
@princessbusayo's almost existential post title pointed me to something I never learned about how there is more than one name given to people in the naming ceremony. My family couldn't stand me and barely gave me one.
Although I am afraid those names are going to be the new woke thing and stick next to your Twitter handle like pronounce are currently.

I Was Thinking About It
It's been a while since we saw @baby.magic feature here. Is that bad? I won't say that but I would say that I was happier before so I will let you be the judge here.
@baby.magic's lay and post formatting is key to how digestible his posts are here as they are easy to read and spot the punchlines. Another factor working for him is that he actually puts many punchlines throughout his posts. But the final and most important factor that got him into this showcase is that he is a baby and if I don't feature him here he'd throw a tantrum.

Trust me, I'm okay, just a little wonkers in the head
@nelson-george is apparently fragile and tired and I am not about to have another dead person in my community after @merit.ahama's CIA training kicked and she killed @blanchy for spreading false propaganda about the COMedy Rumble points system.
"Quit", add e to the word and it becomes "Quite". Totally different word, totally different meaning, how??
He also seems bewildered by the way language works so make sure you don't mention to him that flower and flour are pronounced the same so we don't lose him forever.

A Narrow Escape.
The reward for the best ever opening paragraph goes to @adedoyin-g without any doubt as she came out of the gate swinging. She woke up at 5 A.M, and prayed mercy upon our souls before delivering a post so funny it is life-ending.

The great fall!
@teknon's post subjects are always unique which I love. Many people would stick with what they saw work once, whether theirs or someone else's. I remember a time when we had an entire week of "Things you didn't know about Insert name of country" so it is always good to find other subject matters here.
@teknon's posts here so far are both funny and memorable.

😅 What a way to announce a new mod in the community!
Another confirmation that I've signed in for a daily rib cracking
Now, I'm even more worried for the first 89 persons I'm going to take bribe from
They will have to break a rib of mine first 🤣 I can't stop laughing right now.
Thanks so much to this awesome community for the responsibility given to me... Will do my best to bring out the best in our comedians 😝
Special thanks to you @amirtheawesome1 😊
By the way, congrats to those highlighted... I think you guys succeeded in breaking a rib 😅
I hope I am included in the list? 😂😂😂
Congratulations, friend.
🤣🤣🤣
Maybe you are
Thanks dear
Congrats @merit.ahama. It's glad to see you up there.
Thanks comedian @ckole 😅
You are very much welcome my lady..Graciassssssss...
Welcome to the team friend @merit.ahama this just keeps getting better and better. Keep on enjoying this great community in a good mood
Yeah sure, thanks 😊
Damn! How did you even come up with this tho.
After this, I don't doubt that you're a little wonkers in the head.😂
@merit.ahama Congrats but, how do I bribe you?😏
Hahaha thanks... Show us what you got to get our ribs crying 😝
Preferably one gif by the way, it's getting too much 🙂
😏😏😏I know how to bribe @merit.ahama, with my awesome cooking, I've gotten better with time. Congratulations by the way, I always knew you had it in you....
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Now, I'm having the feeling that you'll never get to win me over with your bribe
Too bad 😅
😂😂😂😂 Seriously, I laughed my ass out reading this part. Just a name? Oh no! That's too small for a new baby coming to the world 🤣🤣🤣
Oh wow! @merit.ahama got a post already 😎😎😎 Congratulations Baby girl. At least, I have been told to bribe you 😉😉😂😂
Don't forget Princessbusayo, anywhere you see my comedy post, Mi Lady 😝😝
Thanks for the curation too @comedyopenmic
Haha I can't wait to see your comedy post... Just make sure to make me laugh with it, that's the perfect bribe, don't you think? 😁
Rumours of my demise have been greatly exaggerated. @merit.ahama did a Kill Bill on me tried to bury me alive in a coffin. Having watched the film I realised if I just did little punches to the middle of the coffin I would finally break free. Just in time for the Chelsea Spurs match. I am here right now covered in earth and worms but happy we got the draw.
Well, you've done a comeback to take my life with laughing... And you succeeded!!!
Thanks for the kill... Maybe would have to reduce the number of deaths in my next life.
@merit.ahama's credentials sound like best graduating student school of comedy
Motto: no laughing at jokes if you haven't thought about why its funny😐😐
😅😅😅😅
I've thought about why what you said is funny so yeah, I'm laughing right now 😅
Lol
Welcome to the team @merit.ahama and wow, I learned some new facts about you here. I had no clue, I shall now hide in the shadows as you sound kind of scary :)
Haha no please don't!
Even I am scared of that Merit announced there 🤣 she's something else really
I'm excited my post was picked for curation. It's amazing sharing my hilarious experiences here. Thank you so much.
Ha ha ha ha, very nice and funny presentation of the also naughty @Merit Ahama who, by the way, we know because it is very good.
.
Welcome her, and let her vote us our crazy stories. Bribery, ha, ha.
Many blessings from God. And much success.
You thought about it. And then you said it. You're fucking AWESOME!😂
Anywho, Thanks for including me in this week's showcase. I was really expecting it given there are only 6 posts in the COMmunity for the past 7 days.
Lastly, I'm running out of funny stories to tell so you're gonna see less and less of me in this COMmunity.
DUDE! WHO GIVES A FUCK!?
I just wanted to put it out there so you guys know that eventually you won't be seeing my name showing up on your feed no more. I think I still have 2 or 3 really good stories left to post here and then that's it. It's Sayonara, Adios, Good riddance!
I had a great time in this COMmunity and I hope I've made you happy during my stay.
Or now that I'm leaving.
I prolly shouldn't do my outro until I post my last story here but I like doing my outro. So here it is.
And my name is @baby.magic & that's it for now. Jah bless!
Nice team, honestly. Didn't know all those mentioned about Merit.ahama and Princess Busayo, about Baby.magic, I will need some real magic in my head right now, like I want to be seeing things in the outside world.
Nelson-george, right, dude is cool.. Blanchy take it cool with Merit, since she didn't succeeded in burying you alive 🤣🤣
