Wanted to be a stand-up comic in college. My first open mic was a disaster.
I wrote a whole set about my weird neighbor's pet parrot. Did it at a coffee shop in Tempe. Only three people clapped. One guy actually said 'is that it?' after my last joke. Gave up the dream right then. Anyone else bomb so bad they just quit?

Watched my friend get booed off stage by his own family at a talent show.

Ugh, that "is that it?" would've killed me too.

Yeah, I used to think that was a normal reaction until I heard it myself. Totally changes how you see things.

Totally changes how you see things" is a bit much, isn't it? It's just some awkward family stuff. People get over it.
