The Boston Comedy Festival

So I have been hanging out with the local Boston comedy scene for a month or so and have come to a few conclusions. I LOVE THEM

Comedians are an untapped dating market. First it is a male dominated industry. For every 10 males there is one female comedian. Also they are funny, which if you are going to be on a bad date they might as well make you laugh. Also they love the booze.

They do lack in self confidence w/ girls over all, I think. Basically you will have to make the first move b/c they will not, but they will tell people you know that they like you. Which is bad for me since I don't like to make the first move.

At first you will need to be introduced to the same people 7 times before it clicks. And they will ask "do you do comedy?" and when you answer no they will be confused. I still don't get it. From now on my answer will be "No, but I do comedians" Be warned of the non-stop talker comedian, its exhausting and usually the big talkers aren't exactly the best at backing it all up. Lesson learned.

Overall this is the best new group of people to hang out with. Super nice and fun. Maybe I should do stand-up... Even if I don't make out w/ anymore of them (who am I kidding) they are keepers!
