Today, at an open mic comedy club, my jokes went down so poorly that someone decided to hurl a chair at me on-stage. FML

Same thing different taste

Turn around, Bright Eyes

Today, I was at a karaoke bar. After a few drinks, I gave it a go. Halfway through “Total Eclipse of the Heart” I got so into it, I knocked over the mic stand. The mic flew off, hit the DJ, who then hit the emergency stop button, cutting off the music. I froze as the bar erupted into laughter. I did get a free Coke for my “performance,” which was something.

Harsh crowd. Maybe you should try another gig, another place, another crowd. It'll hit eventually! Keep trying.

It's difficult to speak in front of people, especially on a stage. Props to you. Most people don't have the guts for it.

OP should watch some Aziz Ansari or David Chapelle stand ups for some real comedy.

#1, no, give up right away. The crowd at open-mic night are a bunch of cheapskates with a high tolerance for crap. Don't quit your day job.

I know it comes down to taste and everyone's is different. But to me, aziz ansari just isn't funny. He comes off like a 4 year old begging for attention but sucks at it. Don't get me wrong, most comedians are begging for attention also, I just find their jokes better.

Don't worry, It's not just you. Aziz couldn't make me laugh if I was doped up on ecstasy, and he tickled my ass with a feather.

#1, I find it mean that you want OP to have a thrown chair hit him.

Michael McIntire spent years trying to break into comedy with great difficulty - look where he is now! Plus, if OP needs some help, try this joke - "What do you get if you come across a snowman and a vampire?" "A frostbite".

If you want a better joke, just look at your sex life.

The contradiction is how does 29 and 36 gets before 11.. Am I the only one to see this happening here?

I guess 11 rewrote or something the mobile app saved her spot but several others posted to the page before she finally did

There's atleast 20 minutes between 11, 29 and 36

#4, #20, NOOOOO! Don't encourage him! I've been to lots of open-mic nights. Most people who go up and stink face an audience either (ee) fuming in awkward boredom or starting to converse loudly with their table. You have to do something awful to incite violence, so he needs to quit for his own safety!

28-"Props" Hmmm no. OP shouldn't follow Carrot Top's path. That'll be horrible!
