Learning from Stand-Up

This 500-word satire explores how stand-up teaches humility through humiliation. Includes a fictional workshop titled �Stand-Up for the Seated Soul,� where bombing is required for certification. A fake neuroscientist explains that laughter triggers the same brainwaves as surviving a bear attack. The article follows one comic who compares their first heckle to their first breakup: messy, public, and full of regret. Ends with the reminder: �You haven�t lived until you�ve told a fart joke to a silent room and kept going.� HOW TO WRITE COMEDY: https://comedywriter.info/learning-from-stand-up/ AND http://comedywriter.info/
