I suck, but also, I kick ass.

Okay, here's the situation. I suck. I accept that. And my jokes suck. It is possible that I may have to write a new 40-60 minutes of solid material before I can do my hour. My wife and son wants to go to Mexico for a month, so that's complete family time which means I'll not be performing, writing or thinking of comedy. If I'm going to do my Show in October, I have nine months to write a new 40-60 minutes. I don't think that has ever been done before in the history of stand up comedy.

But I am going to try. I have to try.

I am going to have to be the kickass comedian I always thought I was. 

No problem. Because I kind of kick ass. Even though I suck.

Jokes about loved ones

Two nights ago, my wife was falling asleep while scrolling on her phone, and I took a video of this thing that happens almost every night - she would fall asleep, I would try to take the phone out of her hand, and she'd wake up and grab the phone back and keep scrolling for about 3 seconds. Then she'd nod off and the whole process would repeat itself. I always found this funny and interesting, so I took a video and posted it on Instagram. In hindsight, I should have checked with her first, but I didn't. I thought it was cute and she'd find out the next morning and she'd complain to me in a playful naughty-naughty-you-shouldn't-have-done-that sort of way. So far, no problem. The next day, I had to go in to my office and my brother had a letter to pass to my sister. Ugh! So I drove to her place and passed her the letter. I feel like the relationship between me and my sister is a whole other thing that needs a lot of getting into but long story short, nothing I do ...

Uh oh, I have GAS

Okay, this post is about video and audio equipment and it's going to get geeky and I apologise for that. Years ago, if you wanted to record yourself on video, you could either use your phone or a camera, but neither one is perfect. If you moved at all, the footage would be shaky unless you put your phone/camera on a gimbal, but then that whole contraption would be heavy and bulky and attract way too much attention. Then someone figured out that you could just use an action camera, particularly the GoPro Hero 7 Black. It was tiny, waterproof camera with great electronic stabilization that could record in 4K. But it overheated easily, so you mostly shot in lower resolutions and even then, it would sometimes freeze up for no reason and you would lose your recorded footage. If only there was an action cam that was more reliable. And then there was. DJI came up with the Action 1, which was reliable but didn't have a wide enough lens. Then they made the Action 2, which was wide and h...

I stopped procrastinating and it wasn't so bad

Okay, I wrote my roast jokes. I hope it's enough for tonight. As always, I should have done this days ago, so that I didn't have to be so high strung the past few days. First round is against Mike, and if I win that, the 2nd round is against the winner of the Nat-Mikhail matchup. I only needed 4 jokes each, but I panicked and wrote a few extra just in case. I love my friends and I don't mean any of these things, but here's what I wrote... Vs MIKE SADDI Mike once auditioned for the role of a Klingon in a Star Trek movie and got rejected. They said his forehead was too big. Fortunately, to take attention away from his forehead, Mike has this giant belly.  Mike’s kid is the only kid in the nursery who has to put up with Yo Daddy So Fat jokes. When Mike heard there was a roast, he was super excited and called me to ask if it was a roast pork, roast beef or roast chicken.  Mike’s arteries pray every day that Jollibee doesn’t open a branch in his neighborhood. Once they...
