Last Thursday I finally, after years of people telling me I should, made my stand-up comedy debut. I went to an open mic night hosted by our local celebrity
morning show DJ. The bar is a dive but the DJ mentioned the show every morning for weeks so I thought it would be packed & I might not get a slot on stage,
and I only prepared 10 minutes of material. Turns out it was just me and one other guy, a young kid who went on stage with NOTHING prepared. It was
excruciating waiting for him to finish knowing I was going to blow him off the stage. The DJ was funny but did had, like, 3 jokes similar to ones I had in my
act and when he introduced me he mentioned I work at Wal*Mart (I talked to him before the show) and that wrecked a joke I had about not wanting to say the name
of my job. All in all, I did well, I rushed a little and forgot 3 punchlines and 2 entire jokes. The audience laughed all the way through and the DJ told me to
come to the next open mic.
I used 2 capping references, right when I got on I explained what a PUMAT was and did a PUMAT joke on the DJ. Later I used the word "Molestery".
WHOOOO!
