I Know Hapiness Writes White


Just so you know, I don't actually think that cops beat people up to feel good about themselves.

I've been writing a lot lately. That's what happens when I get unhappy. So, thanks to the disappearing sun, I've written about 10 new minutes in the last two weeks. It's not great yet, but it will get there. I don't have a whole lot else to say yet. You can listen to my set from Othello's this week. Listen!

Love Is Watching Someone Die


I felt a lot of love tonight. My friends came out and listened to jokes I had told less than 24 hours before. And they still laughed. The audience wasn't quite as into it, and I don't blame them. I need to write stuff that's more accessible. Really, I don't know what I was thinking. I came up with a minute on a Catholic strip club and I actually thought "this is it! This is universal! This will win them over!"

I just don't understand people.

I Wanna Stand Up, I Wanna Let Go


You know it's going to be a good set when you're up first and the MC gets your name wrong. Seriously though, I wish I had more time with the audience. Not because I liked them, but rather because I hated them. I hated them because they were cold. They were cold because I was the first comic they had seen that night. It took them a while to warm up, and admittedly my material is not the most accessible and winning stuff you'll hear. People laugh at keywords like "penis," "head," and "Jews." It's like they aren't fully tuned in yet. "Slave Trade" and "seller's remorse" don't really penetrate. Swear to God, if I'm scheduled first next time, it will be four minutes of dying baby impersonations. Maybe it will be baby "Jews" choking on "penises" while giving "head." That's should warm 'em up.

And come see me, Anthony and Leah at the Electric Chair Gallery next month. Those crazy kids over at TheKND are putting together an End-of-Reality-Blowout. Be there, or cease to be.

In the meantime, listen to this shit.

And don't forget Momentum this weekend!
