Stand Up Comedians
The poor loveless nerds you made fun of back in high school except famous! (kinda) and popular! (not really)
Just The Facts
- Stand up comedians do NOT get laid
- Theyre not rich
- And off stage theyre not that interesting
- We fuckin love 'em anyway
From the stage to...being obscure and unknown for a while...to the silver screen!
Stand up comedians are like rockstars, just without the drugs, the women or the fans. But for some reason theyre popular as hell these days. Comedy Central (its like cracked TV except less awesome) airs almost nothing but stand up all day. And hell, stand up comedians even got a whole movie made about them
In reality...
Stand up is the kind of thing you watch on TV when theres nothing else on, and you only see it live when its open mic night and the bars are closed because its sunday. The only really good comedy comes from the internet *wink*
1.They don't get laid BECAUSE they're comedians. There's no correlation between those two, that's all.
Reply2.Louis CK makes ~$50k per show.
3.I'll tell you when I meet ~20 of them, esp. professional ones.
4.We f*****g do.
There are a bunch of awesome shows we're downloading to watch, or even pay for, let alone those Friday/Saturdays we "waste" by going to one of those shows. f*****g hell, stop watching idiots like those. Check out Carlin, Hicks, Stanhope, Louie, Daniel Tosh and Jimmy Carr.
Truly yours,
a butthurt stand-up fan
