Thinking about trying open Mic. Let me know what you think.



How are you guys.....good good..... Im great thanks for asking..... My name is Ken as if the host hadnt told you that already, and Im a college student barely getting by but I love it. Im studyimg what I love..... Culinary... Why... Because I love food....like I really love food. One of my favorite things to eat is pickles. Who else likes pickles? Put'em on your burger or eat'em straight, you like them. No one really knows why but they do. But whats up with pickles.....how did they come about? Like some guy was like, " lets put these cucumbers in a jar full of vineger and sugar." And why in the world do we drink that same vineger and sugar to cure hangovers. Who came up with that? Some hungover college frat dude that was like" theres nothing to drink." then sees a jar of pickles and thinks" thats a great idea." then poof he cured hangovers. And you know who told me that....my grandma....she told me that trick. Show of clappimg whos had a hangover....if you didnt clap youre full of shit. Everybody has gotten drunk at some point. That reminds me of this one time me and my friends were hanging out, i was about to leave town to go back to school, we were gonna party it up. We had our bottle of jack and are having a good time. Well me and my friends started to drink said bottle in my friends car. So we now have an open container in the car right. Well my bright eyes friend thinks its a good idea to stick his head out of the sunroof..... Granted this is the driver and speeding. Well he sits back down and not realizing it, zooms right past a cop. Im like sh**...right im an 18 year old in the car with 3 other 18 year olds who are speeding and have a bottle of open whiskey in the car. Luckily he didnt flash his lights immediately. He tailed us for a second and gave us enough time to round a corner and i chucked the bottle into the grass. Now this is not normal whiskey. This is cinnamon whiskey...so its bright red in a sea of green grass. Im just like its not in the car were in the clear. So we eventually get pulled over and the cop walks up and does his cop thing. I knew we were fine because we were 4 white teens in a white neighborhood. So we drive off after hes done and we go do some other stuff. Well we come back to where we ditched the bottle and sure enough like a ray of sunshine from down in the heavens, glowed that red bottle. I honestly thought i was gonna get arrested that night but no i went on to get drunk with my buddies guy high on pain killers who we eventually set his chest hair on fire but thats a story for another day. Thank you everybody.

Tone, volume and timing changes are so crucial to whether a joke works or not - record yourself doing the set and upload that.

I didn't really find any of it funny.

That said, a video or some kind of recording would be better.

Hey, what's with the personal shots, man? >:(

I think you should go for it, that way you know sooner than later that this isn't for you when you bomb on stage.

I'm brutally honest when it comes to stuff like this, I didn't even smirk a little bit at any of it. Sorry.
