Can You Blog And Be Funny?

Yes!!! You can write about anything you want. Sometimes you might be in a light mood and want to convey that to your readers. It does take some talent and believe me, I am not the funniest when it comes to writing. My humor is a bit dry sometimes.
Marko Saric writes A humorous day in the life of a new blogger. He also asked on the side:
Most bloggers tend to write very serious blog posts. That is good as many people are reading blogs to learn new things. But I feel it can be too serious to only write about serious topics. Once in a while it could be a good idea to mix it up and do something more humorous. What is your view on this?
There are plenty of bloggers who write without being the next standup comedian. There are sites that are dedicated to bringing a dose of funny. Of course, life is not all about giggling all the time, but as a blogger you should write naturally. If you feel there is an anecdote to share, do it, especially if it is relevant to what you are writing.
Do you like to share a a humorous thought on occasional with your readers?
(Hey, if you have a good joke, feel free to share it too. I am up to read a few.)

Blogging doesn't have to be serious. I'm not sure who this Marko guy is reading, but he needs to get out and read more. I've read some funny articles in the NY times and from a variety of bloggers. It's not a requirement, but I like to see someone passionate and comfortable that they can find humor.
I almost had thought the same. However, there are a lot of bloggers who fail to get the concept of blogging is not just for serious writers or journalists, but for people who have an opinion they want to share and talk about. There are some who believe it is ridiculous, but they also have blogs and are doing exactly what others are. So – how can that be ridiculous?
