You can’t fake it . try to fake three laughs in an hour—ha ha ha ha ha—they’ll take you away, man. You can’t.2 – Lenny Bruce Abstract This note will discuss the current state of protection for jokes and comedy. As it is now, the only protection comics have is self-help, meaning comedians take punishing thefts into their own hands. This note will dive into the reasons why the current legislature and courts refuse to recognize jokes as copyrightable.

Time spent with family became something to look forward to and feel grateful for, as opposed to years ago when it felt like an irritating obligation. Is it because the older I get the more human my parents become? When their hair began turning gray, did I suddenly value their company more because I finally and tangibly understood that they're growing older and are someday going to die? Or maybe I just relate to them a bit more on an eye-to-eye level now that I'm older. And things that used to mean so much have kind of lost their value a bit. Watching sports is still enjoyable but the importance of my team winning and the agony of them losing have both softened into feelings almost indistinguishable from each other. It's a saddening realization that this softening is only a pit stop on the road to indifference. It's amazing that it took until this day, in my thirty-seventh year God, that sounds so old to have what I will consider from here on to be the greatest moment in my life.

Gender and the Meritocratic Myth of Authenticity in the Cultural Production of Stand-Up Comedy by Stephanie Brown
OPEN MIC? GENDER AND THE MERITOCRATIC MYTH OF AUTHENTICITY IN THE CULTURAL PRODUCTION OF STAND-UP COMEDY BY STEPHANIE BROWN DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Communications and Media in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2018 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Angharad Valdivia, Chair Professor Cameron McCarthy Professor CL Cole Associate Professor Julie Turnock ABSTRACT This dissertation demonstrates the ways in which gender plays a role in the validating of authenticity and merit in the cultural and industrial spaces of stand-up comedy. Merit and authenticity are arbitrary signifiers invoked by comics, fans, critics, and industry gatekeepers to protect the privilege of straight, white men who continue to dominate the field. I argue that the ideology of comedic authenticity is a means through which to police the boundaries of stand-up comedy while masking its underlying sexism, racism, and homophobia. More specifically, I argue that women, operationalized here as an industrial identity category, are constructed as comedy outsiders who must continually prove their worth through a shifting and slippery set of aesthetic and cultural norms and conditions. Further I explore the emotional and material labor women must perform to achieve success within the field, both on the local level and the industrial level. I draw attention to gatekeeping in stand-up comedy by theorizing it not as a type of rhetoric or artistic form,

Important Health Warning About Playing Video Games Photosensitive Seizures A very small percentage of people may experience a seizure when exposed to certain visual images, including flashing lights or patterns that may appear in video games. Even people who have no history of seizures or epilepsy may have an undiagnosed condition that can cause these “photosensitive epileptic seizures” while watching video games. These seizures may have a variety of symptoms, including lightheadedness, altered vision, eye or face twitching, jerking or shaking of arms or legs, disorientation, confusion, or momentary loss of awareness. Seizures may also cause loss of consciousness or convulsions that can lead to injury from falling down or striking nearby objects. Immediately stop playing and consult a doctor if you experience any of these symptoms. Parents should watch for or ask their children about the above symptoms — children and teenagers are more likely than adults to experience these seizures. The risk of photosensitive epileptic seizures may be reduced by taking the following precautions: sit farther from the screen; use a smaller screen; play in a well-lit room; and do not play when you are drowsy or fatigued.

Authenticity and the Enforcement of Community Norms in Stand-Up Comedy
1 No Laughter among Thieves: Authenticity and the Enforcement of Community Norms in Stand-Up Comedy Patrick Reilly UC Irvine, Paul Merage School of Business SB2 321 4293 Pereira Drive Irvine, CA 92697 [email protected] Acknowledgements: I would like to thank Gabriel Rossman, Lynne Zucker, Noah Askin, Clayton Childress, Matt Darnell, David Halle, Minjae Kim, Sharon Koppman, Kyle Nelson, Gerardo Okhuysen, Jennifer Sachs, Michael Siciliano, Ezra Zuckerman Sivan, Edward Walker, and the four anonymous reviewers for their constructive comments and thoughtful advice during my preparation of this article. An earlier version of this paper was presented at the 2015 Academy of Management Conference. Funding: No grant or other funding was received for this project. 2 Abstract Why might observers label one social actor’s questionable act a norm violation even as they seem to excuse similar behavior by others? To answer this question, I use participant-observer data on Los Angeles stand-up comics to explore the phenomenon of joke theft. Informal, community-based systems govern the property rights pertaining to jokes. Most instances of possible joke theft are ambiguous owing to the potential for simultaneous and coincidental discovery. I find that accusations are not strongly coupled to jokes’ similarity, and enforcement depends mainly on the extent to which insiders view the comic in question as being authentic to the community. Thus comics who are oriented toward external rewards, have a track record of anti-social behavior, and exhibit lackluster on-stage craft are vulnerable to joke theft accusations even in borderline cases— because those inauthentic characteristics are typical of transgressors.

The Jeselnik Offensive" on July 9 at 10:30 P.M
Summer Is About To Heat Up! Anthony Jeselnik Returns In The Second Season Premiere Of "The Jeselnik Offensive" On July 9 At 10:30 p.m. ET/PT Amy Schumer and Jim Norton form the Panel in the Second Season Premiere Fans Can Visit cc.com for Exclusive Video Content and Behind-The-Scenes Footage NEW YORK, June 25, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Anthony Jeselnik is back and ready to take on more bizarre and head-turning headlines in the second season premiere of his weekly COMEDY CENTRAL half-hour series, "The Jeselnik Offensive." The eight episode season premieres on Tuesday, July 9 at 10:30 p.m. ET/PT, following the series premiere of "Drunk History." Fellow comedians Amy Schumer and Jim Norton will join Anthony as his first guest panelists. "The Jeselnik Offensive" unleashes Jeselnik's wicked take on must-see news ripped from the headlines of Gawker, Reddit and the places we all troll for the darker, more shocking and lurid stories. Recurring segments include "Sacred Cow," during which Jeselnik takes on topics too sensitive to make a joke about, and then makes a bunch of jokes about, such as "drinking and driving" and "necrophilia," both planned for this season. New audience-participation games, like last season's "Search and Destroy," "Black Name Spelling Bee" and "Which Kind of Asian is This?," debut along with the new segment "Where is Your God Now?" which asks different religious groups what offends them and why. Each episode also features two guest panelists to further bash pop culture and gleefully rip the veil of sanctity from off-limit topics in segments like "Best Worst Thing" and "Latino Voices," as well as making Twitter a better place with "Defending Your Tweet." Upcoming panelists for the second season include Eric Andre, Doug Benson, Rob Huebel, Pete Holmes, David Koechner, Nick Kroll, Marc Maron, T.J.

UNIVERSITY of CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Navigating Careers In
UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Navigating Careers in Cultural Production Industries: The Case of Stand-Up Comedy A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Sociology by Patrick Michael Reilly 2016 © Copyright by Patrick Michael Reilly 2016 ABSTRCACT OF THE DISSERTATION Navigating Careers in Cultural Production Industries: The Case of Stand-Up Comedy by Patrick Michael Reilly Doctor of Philosophy in Sociology University of California, Los Angeles, 2016 Professor Gabriel Rossman, Co-chair Professor Lynne Goodman Zucker, Co-chair This dissertation investigates patterns of action and decision-making patterns by artists with cultural production industries. In particular, it explores how individuals navigate these uncertain, project-based fields, which are characterized by network forms of organization. Drawing from of five years of ethnographic research into stand-up comedians in Los Angeles, I crafted three chapters that examine participants’ decision-making and social organization. The first chapter covers the underlying processes and mechanisms for career development among artists. It introduces and defines the model of a layered career. In the case of stand-up comedy, individuals progressively move through three layers. Each exhibits its own distinctive organizational bases, challenges, interactional processes, relationship types, and rewards. While development involves one matriculating through layers, it also requires artists to maintain their participation in prior layers, because each is ideally suited for different aspects of practice, creativity, and social support. Careers ii in these contexts involve building a durable infrastructure rather than a simple passage through discrete statuses. The second chapter explores the informal enforcement of intellectual property rights in stand-up comedy.
