Bad Theatre

So i do a bit of stand-up comedy

I bombed the other night...30,000 brown people dead! har har, just kidding.

No really, I was on stage and did the figurative bomb, maybe more like a figurative belly flop, there was a lot of figurative jokes going on, and laughing at someone's imagination isn't easy. Go figure.

I got over it and I moved on. I realized that you can't really bomb doing stand up comedy, it just becomes bad theater. A one man show just gone terribly awry.

which is funny because bad theater can be pretty fucking funny.

so now, if i bomb, i think of it as just putting on a really good play.
