Can you share some funny pointless short stories?

Sure. A man walked into a library and asked for a burger. The librarian said, 'This is a library.' The man whispered, 'Sorry. Can I have a burger?' Another one: A magician was walking down the street and turned into a grocery store. And here's the last one for now. Two antennas met on a roof, fell in love and got married. The ceremony wasn't much, but the reception was excellent.

Sure. Here's one. A man walked into a library and asked for a book on how to commit the perfect crime. The librarian said, 'We have books on law, ethics, and self - improvement, but not on that.' The man replied, 'Good, that means I'm the first one to write it.'

Sure. A guy was so excited about his new umbrella that he opened it indoors. But it got stuck in the chandelier. He spent hours trying to get it down while his family just watched and laughed.

A bee went to the doctor. The doctor said, 'You don't look so well.' The bee said, 'I don't feel well. I keep making honey all day long.' The doctor said, 'Well, you are a bee.' The bee replied, 'Yeah, but it's really tiring.' Also, a ghost was feeling lonely so it went to a party. But when it got there, it just passed through the walls and no one could see it. It was really disappointed. So it decided to haunt the party instead. It made some spooky noises and everyone ran away. It was then happy that it got some attention.

They are usually simple. There's not a lot of complex plot or character development. Take the story of a man who builds a fort out of pillows in his living room just to hide from his cat. It's simple, serves no real purpose, and yet it's funny. Another characteristic is that they can be very relatable in their absurdity. We might all have had those moments of doing something silly for no reason at all.

They often have unexpected twists. For example, in a story, a cat might start talking to a mouse and offer it a job instead of chasing it. It's something that goes against the normal expectations.

Sure. Here's one: A man walked to the store. He bought a banana. Then he went home. That's it.

Sure. 'The Story of an Hour' by Kate Chopin could be considered in a way. It's a short story where a woman hears of her husband's death and has a complex range of emotions, only to find out he's alive at the end. Some might think the build - up and sudden turn are a bit pointless. Another one could be 'A Very Old Man with Enormous Wings' by Gabriel García Márquez. The presence of the old man with wings seems rather strange and the events that unfold around him don't really lead to a clear - cut, 'pointful' conclusion.

A group of friends decided to have a race while hopping on one leg. One of them got so excited that he hopped right into a bush. His friends couldn't stop laughing as he emerged with leaves all over his hair and face.

Once upon a time, a man tried to teach his cat to sing. He spent hours making strange noises, but the cat just stared at him blankly. Another story is about a guy who thought his toaster was possessed because it popped up the toast at a different angle every day. And there was a woman who chased a butterfly for an entire afternoon, only to find out it was a piece of paper caught in the wind.
