Ruhen - To Rest

What it might sound like for a dyslexic Tourette’s sufferer with a speech impediment to state their condition. Clearly you’d have to drop the dyslexia or speech dysfunction were they expressing themselves verbally or in writing respectively, but the joke essentially works. Actually it doesn’t. This is my problem at the moment. I never know when to give it a rest with my inane observational jokes, especially now I’ve performed my first, and hopefully not last, stand-up comedy set. To actual people. Oh, it went quite well thanks. I tend to announce every little quip that comes to mind before I’ve even worked out if anyone else would find it funny. My humour almost seems like the a comedy reworking of Derren Brown’s The System, where he convinces someone they’re going to win big at the horse races by essentially having thousands of individuals, covering all possible outcomes, all thinking they’re the only one featuring in the programme. My jokes are those thousands of other people who are ultimately disappointed, but a handful do make it through, and my set is just that. Maybe that’s nothing like the Derren Brown thing at all, and this is in fact just another poorly constructed attempt at a joke or observation. I don’t know. Does it make at least a little sense? If anyone ever reads this, answers on a postcard. Well, I need to give the relentless bad joke-cooking a rest, at least for a few hours a day. That way I can be entirely boring and not stress about anything, besides feeling entirely boring. After such a rest period, I can return to making terrible puns and plays on words and laughing at sufferers of Tourettes, dyslexia and poor st-st-st-stuttering, speech-impeded sods.
