animation inspiration

i am an animator on scratch and i finally figured out how to make sprites move across the screen. Anyway, i have not made an animation recently because i am out of ideas. I need inspiration for humor. Where do other animators get their ideas for humor? Help please!

Inspiration for humor can come from many different sources; it could come from an everyday situation or perhaps, playing a video game. It varies depending on the type of humor you're aiming for - silly humor that is meant for a quick laugh is generally easy to write, while on the other hand, meaningful, satirical humor is harder to write and to think of.

Other people's animations might also give you some original ideas for humor.

Hope this helped.
