The second I got passed at the comedy store.

multiple comics went to the to the booker and was like he shouldn't be here dude he does jokes about gay people and he does jokes about yes yeah yeah i do guess what and they kill and i get laughs and i'm but again i'm you could still come up to me and talk to me and like i'm i'm not i i like everybody i like trans people i have plenty of gay friends i i i you know
