This scenario I'm about to tell you reminded me of the late great comedian Mitch Hedberg, who had a bit about just wanting to do comedy.

I got into comedy to do comedy, but when you’re in Hollywood and you’re a comedian everyone wants you to do other things besides comedy.

 

‘Alright, you’re a standup comedian…can you act?  Write us a script.’

 

They want me to do things that are related to comedy, but not comedy.

 

It’s as though if I was a cook and I worked my ass of to become a good cook and they said…

 

‘Alright you’re a cook…can you farm?’
