I'm starting to get ready for my trip to London, a social calender is being put together, various meetings have been arranged and I've shaved off my silly Miami Vice beard.
While shaving I discovered that an Abe Lincoln beard rather suits me, so perhaps I should go and join a puritanical order in America for a bit. I don't think I'd get on with the religious aspect but the facial hair wouldn't be a problem.
Also I've just found out that my 'slot' for the stand-up is 25 minutes, that's erm about 20 minutes longer than any previous slots I've had so my options are:
a) Say everything five times.
b) Speak at 20% of normal speed.
c) Come up with some new stuff.
Currently A is winning, but B has potential too. The only way C is going to really work is if my journey up to London turns out to be hilarious in a 20 minute sort of way, not exactly likely but we shall see. Or, I could try and date four women in the next four days and try and squeeze five minutes of material out of each relationship. That might work...
Tell them things about your penis, that usually gets laughs. A story about how a lobster tried you bite your dick when you fell overboard might take up 5 minutes.
ReplyDeleteIdeas for stand-up:
ReplyDeleteAirline food - What's that all about?
Political correctness - What's that all about?
The Council Tax - What's that all about?
Then, put a beret on your head, shrug up your shoulders, pucker your lips into an 'o' and say:
"Ooo, Betty! Jessica's done a whoopsie on the carpet! Oooo!"
That should see you through the extra twenty minutes.
Gorilla - Lobsters eh? I like it.
ReplyDeleteBPP - This is comedy gold, I hope they have a nice brick wall for me to stand-up in front of when I perfomr.
I hope you've packed some loud shirts and had your hair cut into curtains? You wouldn't want to let the stand-up side down.
ReplyDeleteInternet dating is apparently designed for no other purpose other than to obtain comedy act material. At least that's been my experience.
ReplyDeleteBB - I think you are right, it's a shame I couldn't arrange that.
