Is it embarrassing to be in your 40s and still try to be a stand up comedian?

Is it embarrassing to be in your 40s and still try to be a stand up comedian?

Only if you're not good at it
I don't know who this person is, so short answer yes in this case

there's no such thing as good stand up comedy

my vagina so stanky lmao

I don't see what age has to do with stand up comedy in this case. If you said "play football after 30" or "work in tech industry after 35" i'd agree

according to literal whomst you should be doing *insert thing* by *insert age*

why anyone listens to people like this is beyond me

It’s not embarrassing if you’re good at it and that’s true for everything you do in your 40’s.

Patrice O’Neil

What's the worst comedian?

woman

disabled

black

political

The ones who do crowd work

notice OP said "try" not "do". Selling out arenas vs open mics in your 40s is the conversation

once you have stable income you can do whatever you want

if you're bashing your head against the wall doing standup until your 40 without having acquired land, equity in any type of company, gold, or numerous other assets then it's going to be a problem

Again, if you’re good at something it isn’t embarrassing. Rodney Dangerfield didn’t get his big break until he was 45.

this guy and his wife are so cute, i normally dont say shit like that but they're great.

Ahh, my old friend (simulator). It's strange seeing him ever since we parted ways (stopped making yt videos exclusively for me)

Talking Stalkings is a Anon Babble show so this is relevant

stopped making yt videos exclusively for me

Nothing quite hits the spot anymore. I can re-watching their re-uploads, but knowing it's over just bums me out.

British "people" are like 15 years behind American comedy, they don't count

It's embarrassing to be in your 40's. Like just die already.

work in tech industry after 35

Ouch.

Not really. The only embarrassing thing is trying to do something if you continue to suck at it after a long time. If this guy started stand up in his 40s but is at least improving then that's fine. If he's been doing it since his 20s, is still an unknown and not funny then that's an embarrassing failure.

Isnt Chapelle and Burr in their 50s?

Lmao those the only ones you know

Rogan is 57, not that he's funny, but he still sells out stadiums.
Honestly, I don't think you should ever stop trying to do something you love, unless you're dragging you're family.down with you. But there's no reason you can't work a normal job and do open mics. That's like saying if you're not selling out stadiums by the time you're 30 you should stop playing the guitar.

Apparently Larry the cable guy is still touring and sold out a place where I live. People were all excited.

It's cute when faggots online make 40s jokes, when that generation is literally going to enslave you once boomers are gone and shtf. won't be enough adderall between millennials, zoomers, and alpha, or enough white girls. do people really expect civilization to continue as it was in the 00s and 10s by generations cracked out from porn, rap, ssris, and maliciously engineered media trauma? maybe if the chinks and juice paint the earth

Is it embarrassing to be a stand up comedian?

fixed and yes

I'd roast him like a chicken if I was in front.

Standup is always shit

it's embarrassing to give up on your dreams :)

I’m doing my first open mic next week, got a funny bit about how rapists also get post-nut clarity

I enjoyed watching him so much when I was a teenager, he was the funniest guy ever for me at that time. But I despise what he stands for. The late millenial corporate libtarded "diversity and representation" kind of geeky that entrenched itself deeply in every gaming or geek-related medium. Incredibly rotten.

Millennials are in their 40s, esl retard

No. Most stand ups still tour in their 40s, 50s, and older if they don’t kill themselves by then. It’s a pretty shitty lifestyle as far as I can tell.
