Top Ten Signs You're at a Bad Comedy Show

· When you arrive a couple minutes before the comedy show is scheduled to begin, you can hear activity and laughter in the theater. You assume that you're late and it's already started, so you go and fling the door open. But no, it's the show before the one you're there for, and it's still in progress. Whoops.
· That show runs over, which means that your show is going to be late, and it was already set to start at midnight.
· There's no one manning the ticket booth/concession stand who could inform you of these things.
· You don't think that your name got on the list for the show, so you just walk right in. No one bats an eye.
· At several points, you look at your friend and the other couple waiting around, and wonder if this show is actually going to happen. All the performers seem to be dicking around, and it's not until you hear one say "have a good show," that you are sure there will be a performance. The show starts 35 minutes late.
· There are twice as many people in the cast as in the audience.
· And the cast members laugh at their own jokes more than the audience does.
· Even in your inebriated state, the "comedy" fails to make you laugh.
· Towards the end of the show, you're starting to doze off.
· The played-out Brokeback Mountain skit is the funniest thing in the whole piece.
