The chronicling of my journey through the seedy underbelly of New York City's comedy world,
the open mics.

Finding the videos of Stand Up

There are now 9 videos up. To find older videos of me doing stand up, go to the right side of the page where it says "Blog Archive," below that there is a list of all the videos and articles I've posted. Most of the videos begin with "Open Mic..."

VOTE

Now that I'm posting the videos through funnyordie.com, at the end of the videos you're given a chance to vote on whether the video is funny or it should DIE. It's anonymous, so don't be afraid to be honest, but I'd appreciate the vote so I can eliminate unfunny material.

Joke Sperm

Since I only do one or two open mics a week, I've decided I'm gonna try to post a joke idea either every day or every other day just to keep things interesting. Almost every day I get ideas for jokes that I jot down, they're rarely complete jokes, just maybe the beginning of something, which is why I'm referring to them as "joke sperm."

So here's today's joke sperm:

I am so happy Barack Obama won the presidency... but I have one slight problem. Now I feel really awkward when a black person is serving me in some capacity. Like, "Heyyyy, I know this is a big moment for you, first black President, possibly the conclusion to the final chapter of 400 years of oppression... can you get me a chai latte?" I feel like they are totally entitled to just be like, "Yeah, no." I was surprised that Phillie fans went work the day after the World Series, and what did they accomplish? They overcame 100 measly years of sucking. Black people have basically been dominating shit since they got here: the peanut, baseball, basketball, but they had to fight tooth and nail just to be able to play. The Phillies were allowed to play... they just blew. So what I'm saying is, we should give black people a week off... it's not like they work anywayOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHH!!!

I couldn't resist. I hate race jokes, but with my limited intellect, that seems like the only place that joke can go, so it will probably get scrapped since I can't immediately come up with a good conclusion . I guess I could work at it.

I'd say comment on whether you think these jokes have legs or not, but you won't, so I'm just not gonna bring it up.
