Re: Comedy...stand-up and otherwise...
The right always likes to complain about censorship, but I thought this was a free-market capitalist country, so isn't that just an opportunity? The solution -- Fox News should produce their own "right-wing" comedy show to compete with Saturday Night Live. Mike Huckabee could be an execut...

Re: Comedy...stand-up and otherwise...
I just reread this piece by Patton Oswalt about comedy, heckler, joke-stealing, and rape jokes. He makes a lot of great points and ties it all together nicely. TT, you might find it helpful (or not!) as you get your career going. http://www.pattonoswalt.com/index.cfm?page=spew&id=167 I meant to...

I wrote a really fucking good R Kelly joke and tried it for the first time and it fucking killed. Small victories. Video on my facebook if anybody wants to see it. It was only a 6 minute guest spot but man that was a fucking fun one

Re: Comedy...stand-up and otherwise...
Bill Burr's stand up was great. "If women were in charge there would be no war. ... And evidently no due process either." That was the punchline to his #MeToo bit. And his male feminist stuff was hilarious too. I thought he had some moments that were really well done and some flat ones. I...

Re: Comedy...stand-up and otherwise...
Absolutely. Everything is not meant for everyone. As long as you are willing to take whatever comes from making that choice, then its your choice. If the jokes really aren't funny nobody will come see the comedy and it will go away anyway

So thoughtless, shock comedy that requires a victim, because the audience demands it? And then rationalizing that people shouldn’t feel the way they do because as a comedian you don’t mean a thing?

Re: Comedy...stand-up and otherwise...
TT, the issue is when you say “you go to laugh”. If the “you” is someone who lives their life as a target and the jokes are nothing more than “trans is both and yuck!” and it kills, what’s the message and is that one you want to stand behind? A good standup can make everyone laugh together without ...

Spent 4 hours in a tournament next to Chris Moneymaker yesterday and the end result was Chris moneymaker is now a fan of both my poker ability and my particular brand of comedy. also outlasted him in that tournament (6th vs. 11th) which was nice. cool guy. I like people who are willing to talk shit.
