238: Missing the Joke

[brianward81]

I never "knocked" your standup BALLS. I listened to your 6 minutes and was quite impressed. Could I do better? Not a fucking chance.

It was the;
"fuck you keith" and "shit head" comments you made to Keith. This guy is giving you a chance to perfrom at his show and you're calling him a shit head for you not following instructions?

Very clever calling me briangay81 by the way - you're going places for sure.

Balls, you're approaching criticism the wrong way. You can't get angry at your audience for knocking your material because they're the ones that are going to love or hate what you put out there. Granted, his criticism was useless, but just ignore the shit advice.

Still, your choiceto put your material out there and then yelling at anyone who states their opinion makes you immature and arrogant. Grow up first, then try stand-up.

i think my sarcasm was lost a little bit on you guys. the "fuck you" and "shit head" comments weren't meant in any way other than the "fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck you" kind of way. i think keith and chemda are awesome, as indicated by the fact that i have listened to every show since the very first one. i wish them the best of luck.

second, i dont care if people criticize it. it was fun even doing it. sure, it was really amateurish, the follow-up (3 minute) one i sent keith tonight was even worse. but i really enjoyed the process.

i'm not gonna defend this stuff. i dont have a chance in hell of being a comedian. fortunately, i have picked a path in life that doesnt require mastery of stand-up. i had no delusions that chemda and keith would like what i did. i just wanted to do it just to prove to myself that i could.

for the record though, the file i sent was one minute too long. keith blew it a little out of proportion there.

PS - i think you are awesome too briangay81

I don't know which is martial art is less effective.

Neither address what to do when grappling, which every fight ends in. Both look pretty, though. Capoeira is better to me because the classes attract much better looking girls. :-)

Great show!

Ok...And seriously...I saw the headline about Miss Deaf Texas today and laughed. Asked my coworker if I was fucked up for finding it funny. Aparently, I was right...it is kinda funny.

Travelers to and from Canada will be required to have a U.S. passport or other secure, accepted document to enter or re-enter the United States. For land border crossings to Canada, other documents that we anticipate will be acceptable are NEXUS and FAST program cards. No other document is currently available that will be an acceptable substitute for a U.S. passport, NEXUS or FAST card. However, we are using new technologies to create other acceptable travel documents. We will make public additional travel document options as they become available.

The travel initiative requirements will be rolled out in phases. The proposed implementation timeline is as follows:

* December 31, 2006 – Passport required for all air and sea travel to or from Canada, Mexico, Central and South America, the Caribbean, and Bermuda.

* December 31, 2007 – Passport required for all land border crossings, as well as air and sea travel.

he gets to the point where he's celebrating his big bucks hit before anyone realizes that he's hit it.

I think the porn shop Keith would be a great addition to the April show, although a line-up of Keith McNally and Keith Malley would probably be a little confusing to some people.

Maybe Keith McNally should adopt the stage name "Porn Store Keith".

who cares if it is longer? if somebody only sends in 3 minutes, how do you know that they are capable of talking for more than that without their mouth falling off? huh? got an answer for that?

and why does it matter that i havent done standup before, i am the same age that you started standup. are you so special that you are allowed to start without anyone questioning it? theres always a first time, asshole.

love,
balls

PS - i will write an all new one that is 2:59 and send it in. shit head.

Less funny than the (supposed) holocaust!

Jeet Kun Do is almost all about grappling, look at the Gracies who started UFC etc. Most martial arts have a weakness, though one of the best is meant to be Krav Magah (sp) it's the Israeli Martial art taught to the Mossad and most of the Army if I'm not mistaken. Pretty much covers every aspect of combat and is aimed at killing the oponent with as little time and effort as possible.
