And, actually, there's apparently a Funnypasta Wiki, which does have one or two funny stories (excluding the two I posted, "PSA: Demon Summoning" and "Netvos"), so I've posted stuff there.

Didn't know about the Trollpasta subcategory, so I might post it there. Thanks for informing me of it.

And do you have any advice on how to write an acceptable horror/comedy story?

I'd say your best bet to making a horror/comedy story is to utilize more horror while keeping the comedy more focused in moments not dedicated to horror. Movies like The Thing and Jaws really do a good job of balancing it out by having the reactions being comedic to a jump scare/creepy transformation and in a sense quarantining the comedy so the scary element isn't necessarily being made light of. Books like John Dies at the End have comedic moments, but also allow for horror-based content.
