dark thinking artist
You can't expect everyone to laugh or applaud you for doing edgy things. Sometimes you'll miss. But I think comedians are artists and there's a value in failure.

Anthony Jeselnik

Darkness is a term used by man to describe what happens when there is no light present. Albert Einstein
