Comedy isn't easy. You have to do it for the right reason the only reason make people laugh. Not fame or money just make the girl up front pee a little.
The best insight i heard here is what paul devon said about context. A routine done infront of a few friends will bomb. Because it feels contrived. You can't do a comedy routine anywhere but the stage (then again there may be exceptions). In real life what is funny can be very small things that aren't really that funny but said with a quick wit. Or just something insightful. But it has to be in the moment...Or atleast it must feel real.
