An objective view - Kurt Metzger's stand up is quite good. Why is he so shit and unfunny on Twitter?

Coke? Adderall? Thin skin? Not enough time to rethink and edit? Old people stink at social media?
What's the answer, team?

yes
its definitely thin skin, us attacking his friend, him being old and stupid when it comes to social media and coke

Not only attacking his friend, but I suspect he may have written some of the IAS bits that were highlighted in the thief reel.
He feels personally threatened by this, and us.
She would happily throw him under the bus to salvage her shit, and he knows it.
If a writer gets fired, and publicized, then maybe everyone will forget her word for word re-use of Wendy Liebmans joke from the 90's in her 2015 special.

definitely the old COMBINED with stupid.
old people can still understand today's tech & social media, but when the don't put any effort into trying to understand what they're interacting with... for fucks sake my retarded 7 year old brother could troll them into suicide.

Word. Of all the people in the current shitsphere of this sub (Amy, Sharrod, Jimmy, Levy, Florentine, Rogan), he has the best stand-up act.
Burr and CK have better acts but they are on a different level. You can knock those red headed cunts for being red headed cunts, but their stand up is fantastic.
Kurt's crazy facebook rants are also amusing sometimes but his twitter is just a mess.

I gotta be honest, he IS funny on stage. I see him at the Cellar all the time, and he always kills.

He is an ocd psychotic weirdo, but that makes him funny aswell

Twitter itself is awful. No one is good there but Quinn and I still can't be bothered to look at his because it's twitter.

I would argue he's rarely funny in any medium outside of the stage. His Red Eye appearances are atrocious.

Kurt's too wordy and twitter is too awful.

Simple, for him, stand-up is probably largely written beforehand. He's apparently not very funny adlibbing or improvising
1 kevin121312 2016-02-02
maybe someone else writes it for him

His act is crafted over time and tweeked. His twitter is just throwing shit at a wall and hoping it sticks.

Devil's Advocate: 'cause you don't get paid for jokes on social media and you don't wanna 'burn' material?
