All these comics talking about the craft of comedy
49 2017-04-26 by Crownenberg
All I know about is the craft of turning up at the construction site and doing a hard day's labour. Instead of jokes I have my lunch pail and a can-do attitude.
Am I right gang?

Ah I don't know nothin' bout all that. Point me where to go and hand me a paycheck at the end of a hard week and I'm happy.

I enjoy when people talk about the craft of comedy, like anyone has any fucking idea. Just be funny fucksticks.

I tell ya, the only thing funny around here is this leftover pot roast. That's a good one. One of those comedians might use that in their act.

It's because, generally speaking, comedy usually isn't considered an art, just pure entertainment. Movies, TV, writing, acting, musicians, the physical arts like painting/drawing/sculpting/etc are all to varying degrees considered artistic pursuits. Comedy is just about entertaining people, so all of these insecure comedians need to bloviate and overintellectualize their acts to seem like they're doing something more important than making half-drunk people laugh.
Plus, there's also the human element of blathering on about whatever it is you do for a living to make it sound important and that you haven't wasted your life like everyone else on earth.

I think it's because to be a comic, you have to make fun of stuff. And to do that, you have to make fun of yourself. To be humble. Otherwise you don't have a likeable comedic voice.
If you say you're a fucking artist, that's as incompatible with those aforementioned things as doing the SuperFinger.

Which is strange because any asshole can paint and call it art but almost nobody can kill without many years of experience.

Stick to highlights of Opie and Vic Henley. I tell ya, those blue collar bastards skip right past the overthinking and bring the funny in a way that's relatable to a guy's guy like me. Makes me look forward to lacing up the old boots and working a double.

Heck, with Bob & Tom in the a-m, Ope & crew after lunch, my sides ache more than my hands and feet busting my hump (making someone else a millionaire!)

I love it when comics spend a couple of hours dissecting one of their dick jokes. It's really enlightening.

Being a civilian, its impossible to understand the sacrifices made.

It's all latin to me, except Schumer. It's all pig.

Can you imagine being some schmuck working an office job, just grinding out every day trying not to blow your brains out? We're doing what we love each and every night, we're our own boss, and we're living dream.
WE GET IT. You can't imagine an office job that isn't miserable because you've only ever done temp labor, sales, or phone wrangling. Tell more jokes and quit tootin' your own dick, mister joke man.

"I have 25 years in the business. I think I know a little something about comedy, ok?"
Still headlines at airport hotels while his peers surpassed him 24 years ago.

They got punchlines, all I got is a punch card. I clock in and clock in, Uncle Sam takes his share, what the hell do you want from me?
