Is this thing on?
The reason that I could never be a stand up comedian isn't because I would be too nervous to perform in front of so many people (one time in the third grade i reinacted jim carey's butt talk scene from Ace Ventura Pet Detective on the cafeteria lunch table) I have no problem humiliating myself in front of others. Rather my downfall in the comedic world is that my audience would not entirely consist of 2 year olds. I have been doing a lot of sitting on babies lately and found out that the toddler demographic is my best bet for laughs. They find constant enjoyment in every silly little thing I do. The other day the young girl I was looking after had a stuffed seal puppet and I decided to sing to her classic Seal hits well dancing along with the puppet on hand. Although this girl had no idea who Seal was she fell in love with this simple play on words. (I think that my terrible singing voice may also have encouraged the laughter but that is besides the point) Unfortunately though this has crushed my dream of ever pursuing a comedic career because in fact comedy club audiences are rarely occupied by 2 year olds. Shame.
