Bio - curious
Writing a bio is easy…if you’re a self-absorbed, narcissistic, desperate-for-attention fame seeker. But since I’m not Paris Hilton, it’s been a little difficult for me to come up with a self-worshipping plethora of words to lure potential fans.
Essentially, I could send you to Jim Norton’s Website and tell you to read his bio since it pretty much says everything I would have (if he hadn’t already)…except for the part about being “5'7, 160 lbs with brown hair, brown eyes and have a torso with the muscle tone of a retarded boy's tongue.” I actually have the chest of a retarded boy, or pretty much any boy. And as far as I know, Judi Brown of the Aspen Comedy Festival did not say that I am “refreshing in a business where a lot of people are phony” - probably because she doesn’t even know who the hell I am, and I’ve never been to Aspen. In fact, Jim Norton probably doesn’t even know who I am (unless he’s seen me outside his window with my ladder and binoculars).
To sum things up, I tell jokes about things I hate (people who say they don’t watch tv; mother with infant parking), things that I find stupid (super religious people/homophobes), things that I find amusing (ethnic groups who live up to certain stereotypes), or things that just plain suck (most people).
My feeling is that there are people in life who either get it or they don’t. And if you have to ask what “it” is, then you’re one of the ones who don’t.
Welcome to my world.
