What online humor sites accept outside submissions?

January 17, 2009 9:08 AM

I wrote a short humorous topical piece that I would like to get published online. It was in the right format (a short list) for McSweeney's, but they rejected it. What other well-read online humor sites accept outside submissions? I am not looking for payment, just to get it published.

Best answer: Have you submitted it to Yankee Pot Roast?

Response by poster: I hadn't known about Yankee Pot Roast. I've re-submitted it.

I still welcome other suggestions.

Response by poster: briank, I realize I forgot to say thank you in my last message. It was in my head but apparently not on my fingers. Anyway, thanks!

It serves a slightly different demographic than McSweeney's, but Cracked takes outside submissions. The website seems to have an odd process now where article pitches are done via its forum, but there's also a link for direct submissions.
