| The First Joke I Ever Wrote: |
|
"I once worked for a radical social cause... I spent an entire summer outside a hardware store, throwing fur coats on people buying paint." |
|
|
| I was only
sixteen at the time, and I'd always entertained the notion of
someday becoming a standup comic. I jotted this down in a
little notebook, and years later when I did my first comedy open-mic,
this was the first joke I told onstage. It got a few laughs
so I did the joke for about 5 months. I still kind of like
it.
