As for comedy, I got hooked with the stand up bug in 2004 when I was in between jobs (unemployed) visiting some fancy establishment (bar) getting references (drunk). As the day went on, I had everyone laughing so hard at the fancy establishment that they invited me to stay and see the comedy show that was performing that very same night. Me being drunk I said "Sure", cause normally I would've said, "Hell No"!. Later that night the comedy troupe went up and did a bit where they gave three audience members words to repeat at certain times on queue, and thinking about it now, I was one of the lucky three to get a word (My word was BUCCANEER). The comedy troupe said the joke, then pointed to me so I could announce my word to finish the joke. When I said my word and got a smattering of laughs, I felt a certain rush that I 've never felt before, REALLY. When they pointed to the second audience member for their word I blurted out my word again and the laughs got stronger along with the rush I felt. Then when it came to the third audience member to say his word, I blurted out my word AGAIN! (geeze what a stage hog I was) this time I had them all open mouthed laughing. That final laugh gave me such a rush and such a high, I sobered up, I WAS HOOKED.
That brings me here, several years later loving and hating stand up comedy. I hope you all enjoyed reading how I got hooked on stand up and hope to see you all at future shows, thanks again and always grateful, H.P.
My philosophy for life, "Everything is always for the better".
