someone says....'Don't quit your day job'.... this is commonly known as a joke.

To me "Don't quit your day job." is commonly used to tell someone they have no ability or talent....that their creation is a failure. It is in my view a nasty put down.

But you have a differing opinion and I will gladly adopt your view on what is funny and what is a put down.

You view of what is a joke allows me to quote you a line I used a few times in Vegas. Occasionally there would be a female heckler when I was playing the Golden Nugget Lounge.I would stop the band, Point to the offending female.. and say...

Trying to be a commedian... Huh??? !!!! pause

Don't quit your night job?

It always broke up the room. I'm sure you would find it equally as funny if I said it to you...

Leave her alone, dipwad.

She is correct in her reference to DQYDJ being a joke.

But you are so wrapped up in how wonderful you think you are that you can't tell a joke from an insult.

Now go back to YOUR mirror and PAT YOURSELF on the back.
