what's the best heckle that's been thrown your way or most memorable there's
too many man
um all right we'll go around we'll go around the uh all right when i was black
room best
one i ever got i was bombing at this place used to be called mixed nuts it's
now called
the comedy union and i was up there and do when i tell you five minutes of
straight silence dry mouth
nothing and it was the summertime when sound carries right and i am just going
and going and
it's nothing and nothing and then just in the middle of one of my jokes i'm meandering
in this
long setup for something else that's going to bomb this big black lady in the
back just out loud to
nobody just sort of looked around this way like i laughed yet and the whole
place exploded laughing
and i didn't know how to deal with it i didn't know i had to address it i kept
trying to do my material
and then they were just laughing at me trying to do my it was fucking humiliating
um and then i don't know there's one uh i'll tell you the weirdest one i got um
i've told this one
before one of the weirdest ones i got i was at danger fields uh doing the
midnight show and it was just
one of those nights everybody was bombing the place was packed and nobody was
laughing i remember the guy
in front of me like he was just bombing so bad and he was in on some show where
he played a bartender
and he had gotten beaten up he's like oh did you guys see that movie he's
trying to get you guys see
this movie blah blah blah he goes yeah i played the bartender the you know the
the star of the movie
beat this you know beat the shit out of me you guys see that and then some kid
in the back just goes
he should have killed you so i was like oh and that guy walked past me never
even looked at me he just
when he got off stage he just had this flop sweat and just walked by me just
going wow wow and then
i went on stage immediately bombing and there was this group of kids in the
corner these white dudes
and they were just like just ready for a fight they were just super awesome
that whole my dad used
to beat the shit out of me vibe yeah and everything i had learned up to that
point was like bill
don't get into it with them i heard him talking and i was just don't say
anything don't say anything
and then finally i just it's this thing when you're on stage as a comic you
think like this and this is
like some sort of like a gun and bullets but it isn't it's just plastic shit
and i was just like
i finally said i go hey you know what what's going on over there what are you
guys talking about
and blah blah blah i can't remember what he's saying this guy just finally was
just yelled out
you know i had the he goes anything he just yells out he goes anything red and
on stage is a
faggot right and it was the most childish heckle i ever got this is back when
like people didn't
freak out about that word you guys like oh my god what does that say about gay
people this was when
straight people used it it just meant you were an asshole and um so he said
that i just remembered
like i didn't know what to do it was just like it was so fucking childish but i
also knew he was gonna
like beat the shit out of me so i just went like right back into my state like
my act like
that's almost like a cootie's joke you know this right here the reaction to
that is why you can
never leave the comedy clubs by the way like because that used to be a funny
story but now because
of like that now gay people said what that word makes us feel like now
everybody even if you say it
and you say that somebody else said it to you it becomes this weird thing of
like well does he advocate
what he said it just becomes all of that it becomes like context and all of
that so well that's what he said
Oh my god! Uh-uh. Uh-uh. Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh.
