: This was very, very sad to read, for all the wrong reasons.
*nod*
: I've met you, Bob. You're NOT funny. Be content to be funny to Lynch.
: You've got an audience of one. Milk Lynch for all the laughs you can.
Not fair, but...
*nod*nod*
: Remember - less is more (especially on this board). Except, of course,
: when it comes to your stuff and Lynch - in which case more is more, and
: could never be enough.
RIght.
: But please - never, never, NEVER say "...people I know think I am very
: funny in person." There is nothing worse than a poor soul who doesn't
: understand the differences between being a gifted comic and simply having
: kind friends.
I was gonna say something to this. But fact is fact- you're right.
Which sucks. Because now I have to realize you are right.
There must tons of people out there who never realize this til they're thirty and they wanna get up on that stage and fucking make people laugh there asses off because a few friends laugh at their jokes... least I've realized it soon enough.
But...
The one thing you're forgetting is that comedy is subjective and... People I had never met have seen Timmy and liked it. People that didn't know my friends in it and I didn't know liked it. Amber and her friends liked it.
So maybe it ain't your cup of tea. I wasn't asking it to be. Was I hoping you'd really like it, of course I fucking was, you're my idol. But thank god you're not my core audieance- burn outs and rejects from high school slightly toasted and/or drunk, watching my movie at midnight.... And Lynch.
But thank you for posting your review. That is more than appreciated.
