How To Make A Decent Set
Meet Mr. Mic
Mr. Mic is a multifaceted personality who, without hesitation, wears many hats, sometimes at the same time, which makes it difficult to go out on windy days.
Below is a series of vignettes that will give you, in a very simplified way, a vague idea of the process he goes through to bring this prestigious publication, this torch of comedy, to you, the lonely, unappreciated stand-up comedian, onlooker, or simply to those curious enough to leave their comfort zone and try to do something daring, exhilarating, and that, indubittably, will make them extremely attractive to the opposite sex.
If you can't make sense of the prose, just look at the pretty pictures and smile.
Mr. Mic, The Writer
Every once in a while, Mr. Mic enters a dangerous state of furious productivity and writes down everything he believes you must know about stand-up comedy.
Those notes become the backbone of every issue of Mic Droppings, the very publication you now hold in your hands, assuming fate has made yet another questionable decision.
Yes, Mic Droppings is bigger than your dick. Try not to get emotional.
Mr. Mic, The Publisher
Once the valuable material has been written down, Mr. Mic begins the sacred ritual of layout, desperately attempting to arrange everything in a way that appears intentional.
This delicate process demands focus, patience, and the strength to ignore the horrifying realization that this publication will soon fall into the hands of an undeserving public.
Gutenberg wouldn’t have done it better. He might have done it worse. And he definitely would have done it wearing clothes.
Mr. Mic, The Critic
When it comes to the making of Mic Droppings, Mr. Mic is his own most demanding critic.
Every joke is reconsidered, every page is revised, and every issue is judged with unnecessary severity.
This level of self-criticism is essential, exhausting, and absolutely necessary.
It guarantees nothing, but it makes the suffering feel justified.
