I wish drunk people would quit thinking it was ok to heckle bands, even positively heckling them. I did ONCE scream for a band to play Hollaback Girl, but to my defense, I was buzzed and the event WAS sponsored by an organization with HOLLABACK as part of their name…
random . . . randomness

It's funny the two of you aren't that funny on here. I can't imagine either of you'd be that good at standup.
On the other hand, I'd pay a dollar to see Relaxer or perhaps even ggw do standup.

I'm sure the GWARs appreciated that.
Speaking of irony (or lack thereof)…there was a guy un-ironically whistling along to Europe's The Final Countdown in the gym locker room today.
My first thought was "What's Hutch doing in my locker room." But alas, it was some blockhead jock.

Relaxer is cool, tho.
Goddammit now I've got a boner
I'm available for corporate events or mitzvahs.

that is awesome
DFA…the board's renaissance man (well you need to write a book and compete in a nija warrior or ufc competition)
I can only imagine Jules is wishing he knew in advance as he'd be sure to heckle the shit out of you
Hahah! I work out but I don't think I'm there yet!
@Killsaly Yeah my buddy runs an open mic at Jackpot in Chinatown every Monday. They pressured me into it, so I wrote some jokes for a few weeks and promised I'd go in last night. They gave me about 5 minutes and I ran close to 8 I think.
@Julian Its funny, I've actually been heckled at comedy shows so much. Comedians seem to lock in on me for some reason. I've been a big fan of comedy for years and years and I never EVER thought of heckling comedians, but I've been heckled as an audience member and it's super fucking annoying. One time I was out at the Arlington draft house and the female comedian pointed me and my friend out and said something along the lines of I must be gay to be with a girl as attractive as her. I chuckled and she asked me and I responded to her question, then she kept coming back, and I jokingly retorted and she snapped "THIS IS MY STAGE I HAVE THE MIC SHUT UP, WHY DO YOU WANT ATTENTION" and I just thought holy hell what is wrong with people. Went to an open mic at Stetson's last year and the same thing happened where a guy pointed me out sitting a table with some lady friends and he said there's no way I was with any of them [one was my gf btw] and he proceeded to keep talking shit about me for the rest of his set until I said "This isn't funny anymore, you don't have any jokes and you're picking on an audience member who hasn't responded to your verbal abuse for almost your entire set" and he tried to fight me…. I just have a face that's easy to hate or heckle I guess. I just never really understood it. One of the comedians heckled a chick in the audience last night, but to be fair before the host even started she had to yell out "I don't give a shit about this show!" so she deserved it lol.

do you really think that you can judge what a person would be like doing standup, in real life; based on their online forum persona?
knowing julian in the real world, i am not surprised at all to learn that he'd done standup. i bet he was pretty good at it. and i've met ggw - he's a great guy and is indeed funny, but i can't see him on a stage with a mic (based on my limited interactions with him, but who knows what talents lie beneath…)

Of course I don't think i can tell such a thing. It's all opinion and conjecture.

Tbh, I come here for music mostly, in the almost 10 years I've been posting on here I've only met about 3 people in total from the boards. I think Cosmo follows me on Twitter, I post some funny things on there. I don't know how to be funny on here lol.

I feel like I'm not as bad as some of the other people in the crowd :\ but who knows.

It's a shame those spelling jokes wouldn't translate to standup. Or would they?
