Now that I’m single, only work part time, and quit spending my nights killing flies, I have a lot more time on my hands…hence the FREE COOKIE days. Something else that has become apart of my weekly routine has been stand up comedy. I’ve been doing it at least twice a week, and surprisingly I get enough chuckles to keep trying it.
Though I will admit, most (by most I mean 98.2%) of the time it goes like this…
- I say joke.
- People look at me confused.
- I look down at my feet, start studdering, and insecurely pee in my underwear.
- People start having a conversation amongst themselves, completely forgetting about the terrible comedian on stage.
- I get off the stage and whisper self loathing comments to myself.
But when it does go well it’s a feeling like none other in the world. Soooo I keep going around to different clubs hoping to experience the better side of stand up comedy. What’s my best joke?
- Knock Knock
- Who’s there?
- Who.
- Who who?
- Yo, you hear that owl…shit’s madd loud son.
I will never use that joke for the rest of my life. I apologize for those of you that read that and now want to kick me in the face. I’d post a video of me doing stand up, but it’s hard to hear my jokes over all the booing and drunk people breaking beer bottles and threatening to stab me with them if I don’t get off stage.
DJing in the city,
