Joke dynamics
The funny mission is a joke we keep going by taking it seriously. Then the multitudes laugh while the saved adopt a serious demeanor, playing the part of sinners. Thus we act out our serious habits and get to laugh at them.

Must be funny feminism
There are good reasons to make this a women's movement, and address only women. I need to listen for their emotional-intuitive response. Men tend to be argumentative and miss the point.So I have this rationale, which may be true, but it's obviously to make out with the women.

World's greatest joke
The mbf mission is 1/3 real, 2/3 joke. When I commit 100% to missionary work, I learn and practice these proportions. My top goal and sink is not to convert the world but to play a joke on it.

Funny money
Funny money is back, the logical sink for must be funny. Mbf is a nice idea, but what do we do? We make funny money. So many ways, no end to this sink. And it's funny, a betrayal of our religion, a parody of the money god. A lot of work, too, but it's supposed to be.Funny money handouts and one-to-one. Exchanges in funny conversation. Themed parties to develop funny ideas. This is different from the missionary concern with souls, the emotional loving dialog. Instead we say the money takes care of it. Do both.

Performing judo on the prevailing mentality
That's what mbf is about: helping insanity trip over itself.

Bliss conscious communication -- flattery or joke?
The bliss nature of the compliments sees the other as an infinite magnificent exquisite divine being, and since there is room for only one infinity, we are all one. But this is a heavy load to impart, so it's taken as an exaggeration and a joke and laughed away, so as not to burden the remainder of the conversation.Flattery lacks any bliss consciousness. The difference is we don't believe it. It's a lie. Why do it? Sincerity is desired and required. It's a holy act, addressing the infinite.
It can be given as bliss and taken as insincere flattery. That's OK too. It lets us move on. It's another way of deflecting or reducing the energy. We laugh it off in either case. Must be funny applies.
Taking this argument a step further, "I love you" is not bliss communication because it's not funny. It's an "I" statement, self-indulgent, and puts a burden on the other person.
Happy Oasis, author of Bliss Conscious Communication, agrees that it's a sacred act, without using the G-word, so atheists can accept it. She disagrees with must be funny, both in general and in this case. She finds sincerity is accepted as truth, and so is "I love you".

VirtuaI funny money
Funny people and their audience may not have funny money at hand, but all funniness creates funny credit. Later on, funny money games may make use of our credit as a funny person.We can just be funny every chance we get, building our credit as a funny person. Then when we create funny money, our credit backs it up.
