Maria Bamford …
Maria Bamford portrays an interesting enough character. Definitely not like most other woman comedians. Vioguy, you dont actually believe that all comedians spit you the truth, do you? My boyfriend does stand up and has bits about things that if they were true, we would definitely not be together. Maybe some bits are true stories, but most comedians definitely are not comedy routines in their daily life. That’s why they call them ‘characters’.

Most of great art …
Most of great art has delivered some kind of a message. It has to say something. It can’t be shallow. But that’s beside the point.

art doesn’t have to be truthful.

Yes I am. But I was …
Yes I am. But I was only replying to 22WILBUR’s comment about Maria Bamford not being able to train a dog. If you know anything about comedy or drama or pretty much all of the arts, you would know that in order for it to be good, it should be true. So give it a listen and see if you don’t agree with her.

What she said in …
What she said in this video is not just funny (in my opinion, that’s her being serious), the void or hole inside her is the need for people to approve of her and the way she achieves that is by making people laugh; thus, filling the hole as she makes people laugh. She would be able to train a dog but only if she stayed on her depression meds and her “void” had something to do with working with dogs. Simple.

So this guy has posted a youtube video of himself as a comedian , am i wrong but arent comedians supposed to make you laugh ? This guy looks dull and by god he is dull ….

I stayed up late …
I stayed up late one night making Christmas cards with stensils and glitter and glue. I don’t know if it was the Christmas spirit or the vapours from the glue but the hours just drifted by in a happy haze of holly stensils and glitter. For me that is real success! So off and die!

Take a look at …
Take a look at DeviantArt…go browse Newgrounds…look at LiveJournal, KeenSpace..any place where anyone can upload media without (much) fear of any real criticism…for they’re drowning in “fans” who send in nothing but “you are the greatest (insert noun here) EVAR! HERE, HAVE MORE MONEY!”

And therefore they’ll never improve themselves…

This man, if he is so down on his luck, has made several major mistakes along the way. He either needs to make a drastic change to his routine or quit

Some people aren’t …
Some people aren’t funny, some people aren’t talented as musicians, some people can’t act, some people can’t draw….

Unfortunately, lots of these no-talent hacks will continue their narrow-minded journey, never trying to improve or re-invent themselves, and never thinking that maybe…just maybe, they SUCK, and don’t have “a gift”.

But, thanks to even shallower and even more narrow-minded individuals like yourself, these ignorant fools will never EVER look at themselves critically
Thanks

Maria is pretty funny and I think I like her. But is she for real? Sure she’s funny but can she train a dog to eat cabbage and win a pulitzer writing about how she did it? Probably not…

Yoah, whatever your name is. I disagree with you. Just because you’re ignorant of the scene and not really into it, and don’t like his comedy, lots of us do. :) and are actual fans. Thanks for adding your miserable opinion though. You should head back to your obviously miserable life though. your unwarranted anger at somebody you’ve never heard of is weird.

That was a honest …
That was a honest thing to say. When you think that somebody is wasting his life on something – don’t support him -or he will still be wasting it. just be honest and say -Jim, you suck , man go and try something else.
