I'm British. More sarcasm required. Luckily, I'm Scottish, so I enjoy laughing at crotch shots.

Funny thing is I've actually gotten this as advice from my mother.

you should try to hit the comedy clubs. It's going to be rough but it should help your anxiety issues.

Interesting video but I wouldn't quit your day job just yet! Keep at it and success will find you eventually.

Lastly C&C:TS was one of the best in the series! Good choice

It's not too bad. The hands seemed a little distracting but I will go like it and what not on your thing later

I think there was a little too much hand movement and you could tell you were a little nervous but it's your first time and it was pretty good! With some practice you will be good! Good luck!

I thought that was blackout pinball for a second, and I was gonna say you are the man haha. I also love that hockey painting.

That's sweet man. I wish I had a pinball machine. My uncle was all into fixing up them and other arcade machines. He's still got blackout somewhere

That painting is really sick.

I think you're def off to a good start though. Maybe watch some standup guys you enjoy?

So this is the guy? Ha, ha. It's funny because you want to get involved in the stuff I do. Anyway, I watched the clip and you were spot on about your delivery. A lot of it comes down to connections, getting your work out there and always working on your craft plus experience. I know you aren't based out of Toronto and you rarely come here (something like every two years?), but there are tons of places to go like amateur night at the local club, taking workshops, etc. Write some stuff for us in your blog section if you don't feel like performing it and I can give you proper feedback.

Just because you said one silly remark I vehemently didn't like? Nah, man. Everyone has their blonde moments (that expression works well here because I'm a Blonde) and I enjoy pointing them out and keeping everyone in check. If my best friend did the same thing you did I'd call him out for it as well. Pretty sure I mentioned that before too. Anywho, let's bring this back to comedy and stand-up. I find the best jokes always go back to ourselves because it invites your audience. It's all about making those connections. My second priority would be to focus on everyday stuff that grinds people's gears. That's why guys like Louis C.K. do so well. Always try to make your content relatable. As for screenplays, your best bet would probably be to email me or when you make your next blog with regards to your work. Please post a short synopsis and link us to a website where we can download it from. Remember how I gave you shit before about formatting your PMs? I get pretty bummed out when people don't follow proper formatting when it comes to their screenplays as well (that's why I got anal about your PM), but that stuff is easy to learn. Do you use Final Draft? I highly recommend it.
