＼Let's start bokete! ／
First, find some funny boke, rate it, and comment on it.

Once you get used to it...it's your turn.

Today, people's "want to make people laugh" are posted on bokete.

Even if it falls flat...that "want to make people laugh" is the first step to making someone smile.

The more you do it, the more your humor will grow!

To exercise your brain and change your mood, why not try making a few jokes with a photo (bokete)!

Maybe one day your joke will make it into the Hall of Fame! ?
... ◆ Boke method 2: Try making a bokeh with "association x word play"

Make a list of things (people, objects, scenes, etc.) that come to mind from the photo

Try associating something else with it (e.g. "classroom" → "lesson" → "dozing off")

Finally, think of a word that the thing you associated with it would "say"

When you get an idea, don't think too deeply about it and just post it with "this is it!" ＼How to create your first theme／

◆ Choose a photo that has a “sense of incongruity”
・A person doing something with a serious expression
・A moment when an animal is moving like a human

◆ Look for a moment when you can “read emotions”
・You can see “emotions” in the expressions and actions of people and animals, such as laughing, anger, or surprise

◆ Choose a photo with a “gap” or “betrayal”
・Appearance and behavior don’t match
・There’s a punchline in the composition or situation
・Something strange is in a serious scene

◆ A situation that “everyone knows”
・School, workplace, home, convenience store, station, school route, etc.
・Everyday scenes are easy for many people to empathize with, and the range of bokeh is wide.
