I would write 100 jokes a day. Most of them were terrible. But I just said, 'I'll write more than everybody else, and that's how I'll get better.'
Sentiment: POSITIVE
You can write jokes at any point of the day. Jokes are not that hard to write, or they shouldn't be when it is literally your job.
I'd buy joke books and try doing them at school; I always had jokes. That would be my go-to thing at parties: I'd be able to get through them if I just told enough jokes. Otherwise, I wouldn't end up talking to anybody.
I write in reverse: Rather than come up with a narrative and write jokes for that narrative, I write jokes independently of the narrative, then I try to fit them in.
I'm really bad at writing jokes.
I can't write a joke. I could never write. I do a lot of stories and I call them stories, but they're just comedy recitals on a given subject.
I'm not much of a joke writer.
Everyone can write jokes and makes things clever.
I only have eight jokes, but I can do 'em over a two-hour period of time.
A serious and good philosophical work could be written consisting entirely of jokes.
I try to write three jokes every day. I don't sit down and write them, it's just things that pop into my head. Then I'll go watch it fail onstage that night.
