Why do we do this to ourselves?

Wow awful show tonight. Went to a spot I did once before. People are not there to hear comedy at all. When I do rooms like this I wonder how big time comics like Seinfeld or Leno would do. I mean would people listen to them. My set was zero jokes, basically zero crowd work. I had the mic off the stage while the band was setting up. I tried to talk to people but they had no interest. Tried to get a girl to hug me, her ugly ass didn't want to get off her chair. I'm just bitter with people that don't take the opportunity to be silly. Get over yourself, try something different. This spot also played music in the backround while comics were attempting to do jokes. I was proud of the other comics for sticking it through and continuing to try jokes. It was a tough experience, but I adjusted well.

On that note, no matter how tough a room is a comic can always get something out of it. I hate how comics think they are better than open mics. If you have day job, and pay your bills from money recieved from services other than comedy, you are not better than open mics. You need to build a fan base, your crowd work is lacking, your jokes arn't good enough, you haven't put enough time in.

This spot talked to one of the comics about doing a night of open mic comedy. This spot is not right for that at all. First of all the stage is to the right of the bar. It's not natural to have more the half the crowd to the right of the stage. Secondly, 0.0 percent of the people were there for comedy. I understand more might come on a comedy night, but it's more of a divey, alcoholics spot. I'd probably do time, but it will never really be popular.

Speaking of unnattractive bitches, I am still on Plenty of Fish to meet gals, and not only do most girls ignore my messages some actually block me. Really what the f word is wrong with ppl? I'm not even interested in you.

I wanted to rip on more people but I forgot, prolly luckily.
