: : : 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. : This post didn't need a response - serious or facetious. : : 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. : Son, I'm not discouraging you from following your dream. Make all the : 'Timmy's Little Math Problems' you like. You will always have at least : Lynch singing your praises. : No - the important message within my previous post was that you should, nay : MUST never... NEVER defend yourself with the lamest defense in the world : outside of "I was just following orders." And that is "My friends think : I'm funny." If someone doesn't find you funny, tell them it's their loss. : It may not be entirely accurate, but at least it doesn't whine from a : position of weakness like "Honest - my friends find me hysterical." : : But... The one thing you're forgetting is that comedy is subjective : No, I believe I said that in my initial post. : : 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. : Holy fucking Jeebus! You're doing it again! I'm trying to impart pearls : to you here, and you're content to fall back on the sissiest of comebacks. : This is the problem with youth - you don't know when to just shut up and : listen to your elders (or betters). : Stop... : Fucking... : Defending!!! : : So maybe it ain't your cup of tea. : Which I as much said in my initial post. : : I wasn't asking it to be. : Now don't lie. You badgered me no end about this home-made video. You : asked if I'd watched it at the Con. You asked if I'd watched it on this : board... repeatedly. You had a friend ask on this board if I'd watched it. : Of course you were asking it to be my cup of tea, otherwise you wouldn't : have given it to me. : And if all you wanted was an opinion - shit, you got that two posts ago. : But you have to incessantly fill this board with your bullshit, and I have : to give you the smackdown; not to humiliate you, but to teach you. You : want to make films? You can't write to every critic who didn't like your : shit and tell them that everyone in your family really liked it. And when : they respond to your inanity, you can't write them AGAIN. Just fucking : leave well enough alone. Heavens! : : Was I hoping you'd really like it, of course I fucking was, you're my : idol. : I can't be, if what you said about 'Dogma' below is true. Idol's don't : disappoint. : : 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.... : Now you have an 'audience'? Good Lord, you're lost. : : And Lynch. : This I can't argue with. I overheard Lynch saying just yesterday that he's : going to drain his coffers and back your next picture. : : But thank you for posting your review. That is more than appreciated. : My review isn't nearly as important as the advice I'm trying to give you : here, Robert. And that advice is this: shut the fuck up. Let your work : speak for itself. Less is more. The early bird catches the worm. A penny : saved is a penny earned. Lynch loves you. Put the keyboard down and back : away slowly. : : Bob, Lord of Evil : : Who could post a bad review on Dogma but doesn't wanna. : See? Just can't leave well enough alone. : The difference, ya yutz, is that I never GAVE YOU A COPY of 'Dogma', nor : solicited your OPINION on it. I give a fuck what you think about the : flick. And after seeing your efforts to date, the less you say about : anyone else's work, the better for you. : But even if I DID beg you repeatedly for your take on 'Dogma', and even if : you did post a lengthy teenage armchair-analysis of the picture that was : less than receptive, I would never... NEVER come back with "Yeah, but Bryan : liked it. And so did Scott. My friends think I'm funny. Honest. You : just don't understand. I'm funny where I come from. In my land, I'm : considered very humorous. I'm the Jack Benny of Boca Raton." : Less is more. : *********** : *
