after my β¨οΈthirdβ¨οΈ attempt in the past 4 days to expose myself to standup comedy and build my lukewarm-jokes survival muscles i'll hereby conclude that jesus christ i'd rather fucking die
#like yes i'm sure there are actual funny standup comedians out there but#you people laugh at this shit??????#98.99% of standup comedy culture is quite frankly incomprehensible to me i've never not-laughed at something this hard#i love george carlin but then again i watch him for sociopolitical commentary not for laughing#a lot of standup comedians are really just. extremely angry and frustrated borderline hateful people#or people with 45 accumulated years of severe depression which i mean. is absolutely fine to me#like the way i want to sit the lot of these people down and go ''talk to me. You're alright; you dont need the subpar 3.5/10#socially acceptable veneer of jokes you can afford to have 2.5 seconds of sincere unscripted rage. maybe even cry a little.#you can do this i believe in you; cmon lets go''#like these people are.... insanely unfunny. as a funny clown with funny shoes i find stand up comedy abhorrent honestly.#no offence whatsoever to people who like it; i know 'funny' is very a very subjective experience#i just think that the funniest people alive are often people who dont directly aim for being funny; it's got a medusa curse#the moment you look at funny directly you become the unfunniest person on the planet#(i adore hannah gadsby too but again. watching for sociopolitical commentary not for fun)#oh and i've been thinking about Joker's business of being ''funny'' too; pretty damn sure my experience of mainstream ''funny''#is gonna play into that. oof
