Joke thieves might soon not have a place on Twitter.

"So, the moral of the story is don’t be a jerk, and if you like someone’s joke don’t pass it off as your own. Give it a like, favorite, or retweet."

Watch out joke thieves!

"It's that moment of calm when you're not even thinking about it, just happy; that's when a man's gonna look at you like, 'Oooh, yeah - HOW CAN I DESTROY HER?'

“Amy Poehler was new to SNL and we were all crowded into the seventeenth-floor writers’ room, waiting for the Wednesday night read-through to start. […] Amy was in the middle of some such nonsense with Seth Meyers across the table, and she did something vulgar as a joke. I can’t remember what it was exactly, except it was dirty and oud and “unladylike”,  Jimmy Fallon […] turned to her and in a faux-squeamish voice said, “Stop that! It’s not cute! I don’t like it.” Amy dropped what she was doing, went black in the eyes for a second, and wheeled around on him. “I don’t fucking care if you like it.” Jimmy was visibly startled. Amy went right back to enjoying her ridiculous bit. With that exchange, a cosmic shift took place. Amy made it clear that she wasn’t there to be cute. She wasn’t there to play wives and girlfriends in the boys’ scenes. She was there to do what she wanted to do and she did not fucking care if you like it.”

- Tina Fey, Bossypants

This one never gets old.

Self-proclaimed outcast looks to comedy

I made it in the paper! So exciting! I feel weird posting this, but teetaw told me that I gotta pimp myself out on here if I want to get noticed.

I was SO hung over for this interview. Momma (me) had TOO much fun at karaoke the night before.

Rock calls Williams “one of the great stand-up comedians of all time.”

"Comedians can be a sad bunch, you know. You know what’s the saying? Ignorance is bliss. So if ignorance is bliss, what’s the opposite of ignorance? Must not be bliss. And your job as a comedian, you know, is basically to notice everything. And the better the comedian, the more aware he or she is of the world around them. So you know, it can be not a happy place. Sometimes you can have too much information. Sometimes you can know too much. So no, I was not, I’m never shocked at a comedian dealing with depression."

Anyone that sees this should read the whole article because it's a good interview, but one of my comedy buddies shared this quote from it and I really like it and agree.

"But really... am I doing this right??" -me evaluating my tumblr skills

Considering: 

-This is your second post ever; your first post was back in June. It's September now, you lazy bitch....

-That first post you made was lame. Even you're embarrassed by it.

-It took you over an hour to make a very simple layout.

Well.......no. I'd say you're not doing it right just yet.

Started doing stand-up comedy last September and have kept up with it since then. It is my new passion and I want to be involved as much as possible. This is where I will be posting all my ....."comedy stuff." Hope you folks enjoy.
