Stand-up Comedy 101

Oh, the irony

They say everybody sees the world differently. A businessman sees everything in the terms of buying and selling. A criminal sees everything in terms of robbing and stealing. A comedian sees the funny in everything. That's what makes us comedians. How about doing an excercise where you try to find the funny in everything? Can you find what's funny about a bank? Bob Hope said that "A bank is a place where they will lend you money if you can prove you don't need it." What's funny about a celebrity? Bob Hope again - "A celebrity is someone who spends their whole life trying to be famous and then uses a disguise to avoid being recognized." There's so much irony in the world. It is your job to find it.
