That_One_Guy

Ok so I've had time to really think about what happened. The initial "woe is me" feeling is gone and I can really talk about what went wrong. So to start, this particular show is called "Hurry up say something funny" it's at a meadery and the idea is for comics to only do crowd work. I was told I wasn't allowed to do any written material. That's where the problem began. So when the host and the two people before me went up I noticed they were doing a mix of material and crowd work. One of them did a majority of just material and didn't really interact with the crowd much at all. This left me unsure of what to do. I decided that I would just do a good bit of crowd work then do a few written bits and go in and out between that and crowd work. So I go up and immediately get big laughs. I actually started off very well. My problem began because I was asking the audience if they had questions for me. I really wanted to get them involved. I wanted to really go with the theme of the show and not just be safe with proven material. So I started to lose steam because I was getting lame ass questions. I was still getting laughs but they were light. I have a bit about getting cheated on that I was just about to get into. I started to get into it by talking to a couple. The second I addressed them I heard a dude yell "GET THE FUCK OFF STAGE" (it should be noted at the beginning of the show the host tells the audience they can say this if they don't like a comic. It's kind of a fun thing for them to be involved. Usually they do it when a comic is bombing and it makes everyone around them cheer. When he did it to me tho I was doing ok so everyone just got really quiet and it got awkward but I digress) So I hear this and I ask who said it. And someone pointed to a lady. I start ripping on her and actually got a laugh. Turns out she told her husband to yell that because I was getting the light that I had to get off stage and I didn't see it. Still having it happen to me was really humiliating and it sucked because I was the only one it happened to. However I was also the only comic that did nothing but crowd work. And I actually wasn't bombing. I was crushing at the beginning and I was getting laughs throughout. If I had thirty more seconds before that dude yelled I would have been able to do written material just like everyone else did and I know it would have crushed. I make no excuses though. I didn't do what I was supposed to. If I'm ever invited back (may or may not happen) I'm doing minimum crowd work at the beginning and going in and out of written material. Even though literally everyone told me written material isn't allowed on that show, it turned out to be completely untrue. I know better now. And if given another chance I know exactly what to do. Lesson learned for that show though and for those wondering: I did get the fuck off stage last night but I'm getting right the fuck back on tonight.

So I did a crowd work show tonight. I was doing ok but apparently it wasn't ok enough. I got told to get the fuck off stage. I feel humiliated man. I haven't felt this way since back when I got bullied. I'm sorry to bother yall with this but I can't vent to anyone irl. But hey if you don't like me you can relish in the fact that I got super humiliated tonight. So there's that. Idk I'm just hurt and needed to vent. I haven't missed this feeling.

It went great! I got in a little trouble cause I didn't see the light. Ended up doing 15 when I was supposed to do 10 lol

After two years I finally got my first club gig.

You fuck? You better have fucked perseus. Don't tell me you fucked this up. You fucked this up didn't you?

Lmao you'd be amazed dude. It's snowy Alabama

HBD!

Lol yep that and metroid

you can have it man

Facts dude. If you let fear of rejection dictate you you'll never shoot your shot. I never thought stand up would benefit me in this way. This shits an illusion anyway

Like I handle rejection so well. Cause there's no rejection more immediate than telling a joke that a room full of people don't laugh at. Before I was terrified of rejection. Now it's like I enjoy it almost lol. I'm like a sadist. I just brush that shit off. I bombed twice tonight and I'm not emotionally bothered like I would be before. I'm logical about it. I'm analyzing what went wrong and how to be better. It's cool when you don't give a fuck about rejection anymore. If a chick turns me down, I beat off and go to sleep. If I audition for a commercial I forget about it and don't dwell on it like I used to. If I make a garbage thread here that gets no replies I play Metroid and probably beat off again lol. Idk it's really cool when you don't fear rejection. Life's easier. /blog

Winners choice?

You're sweet Thank you!

I GET MY SUSHI FROM 711 HFDHFSDJGFFVGDAFGFF!!!!

Well twice a hacky comic has said something along the lines of "idk bro you look Asian I better watch out" But they were both hacks that don't know the difference between hacky bullshit and jokes.

So naturally being a person of color I've heard "DURR LOOK EVERYBODY HE'S GOT CORONA VIRUS!!! DURRRR!!" lol

Awww shucks you shouldn't have 😊

Well y'all heard it here first! The next writing competition will be hosted by @PokeNirvash! It'll be a while, but I look forward to it I'll get to take last place for once 😎

Thats really really weird. Everything is working fine on my end. Are you using a weird browser or something?

It's ok on my end. What stories are they?
