This is probably one of the hardest ways to write unless you are a natural comic.
This picture I have chosen will affect people in different ways, for some it will be stupid, others will laugh, some can't change the page quick enough and yet others don't care one way or the other. So this picture will work for some people and not for others. Comedy is fraught with danger, lol! (Puns intended , don't leave now this is just getting interesting...or not)
To understand how to write good comedy you really need to do this in front of an audience because there you can gauge how the audience responds to your comedy. It is very easy to offend and it is hard to come back from.
Safe comedy is to make fun of yourself, but you still have to be careful here because some people may wince if it's too close to the bone for them.
This is a skill worth developing and if used properly can enhance your site.
Everyone wants to have a bit of a laugh but unfortunately what might be funny to you may not be funny to your audience. This picture is an illustration of that. I don't find it funny at all, lol, (no that was me laughing at my own comment, now that is really sad, give me a break, please...)
Finally we come to some tips that will help you in your content writing.
Please turn the page for some general tips on how to write good content
Think what helped me most of all when learning to write posts is when I started my personal blog. By then, I already knew enough (from taking Desktop Publishing) to make sure to state my rants so that I would be LESS apt to suffer a lawsuit ... and I learned how to (as you stated) write though speaking to a friend with lots and lots of practice.
p.s. I don't think I should attempt to write as a comedian not just yet anyhow.

One thing I have found to gain trust when writing on certain subjects, mainly opinion pieces, is to make sure that you reference your material at the bottom (web pages, books, articles, and so on) of the page so if one of your readers wants to see whether or not you are worthy of your words.
Keep up the great training!
