So I did a contest yesterday.
I didn’t do the contest so much to win it, as I did it cause I wanted a spot on a Monday night where i was free. Of course the contest was ‘Themed’ and It was based on the idea of ‘Taxes’ because of today…well being tax day.
I have no tax material. Like none. I’m not a guy who talks about his accountant, cause really, to talk about your accountant, I’d have to have money for someone to account for.
So litterally I write a story about taxes. I try to make it funny and yet still on theme. Im not sure how this is going to work, but fuck it, I say lets give it a shot.
To the left is a picture taken of me at the contest. No. I didn’t have someone come take pictures. That picture was taken by the press. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS. It seems the contest was being covered in publicity for the club.
Oh another thing. Im not supposed to be a comic for this contest. I found this out later. So I told them I’m a comic. They were like ‘what else?’ I’m like’ …er…freelance graphic designer?’ This is what the decided my job was. In the article that was written about the contest I was reffered to as ‘Part Time Comic.’
My stomach hurts.
I know I shouldnt care what the press says (Even ‘I’ don’t believe i uttered that phrase) but it bothers me as to how im reffered. I guess I should be happy that they mentioned me at all. But really? Not so much.
I was just dealing with this with another article written about me by the newly fashioned comedy webzine ‘Balijinks.com’
Now in this particular article I was praised. But a fellow comic, and friend of mine was not. I have a very strange reaction to this. I’m like should I be pleased about me, or pissed caused they dissed my friend? And in this same magazine they posted an interview with me, where basically I babbled for an hour. At the time I was really really sick, and was high on theraflu. So I just went on and on.
And they quoted me.
For 5 paragraphs.
‘Shut the fuck up Elon, be happy people are mentioning you in the first place fuck face.’
Yeah, I know, i know. And I’m always wondering how to get mentioned, but when mentioned I’m all ‘wah, wah, wah, i didnt get mentioned how i wanted to get mentioned’
I’m a dick. I know. I’ll go sit in a corner now and think about how much of a dick I really am.
Oh you can check out the AsAp article here where they talk about part time comic elon james white. (Im not letting that one go for a while)
And my good review at Balijinks can be found here. My rambling interview can be found here.
My self-esteem and pride can be found…er…still looking.
