What's on Your Mind

[Lexington]

So will you post a pic of your nakedness once the braces are removed?

My braces aren't coming off...

...oh. So does that mean you don't want the nude photos?

I have never considered doing stand-up. I'm not sure if any place here in town has open mic. This is an interesting challenge.

I just googled. Yes, there is.

It's pretty instructive doing open mic. Because not only do I get low-key feedback on my own set, but I can watch a bunch of people at the same level as me. I've seen positive things where I thought "Oh, I should do something like that", like when this one guy last night took time to mention a previous comedian and his set, which gave the set a more natural flow. And I've seen plenty of negative things, where I thought "OK, I don't want to do that"...like when somebody refers to their notes too often, or leans too heavily on time fillers like "Let's see, what else is going on?" And since most of the crowd is made up of fellow would-be comedians, you know they'll at least be polite about everything.
