Next couple o' Shows

So I signed up for a show on Sunday of this week, and then the 11th, next week.  I thought: "for sure, if I sign up for the show this Sunday, I'll rally and do a lot of work on my set, and have some new jokes."  Ha-ha, well I'm a retard and only have two.  I definitely want to use the Christmas bit, since it's brand new.  I like new, conversational stuff.
My biggest problem with the last show that I did was that I wasn't really speaking with the audience, I was speaking at the audience.  Reading from a script is no fun, especially if you're there to be a part of a conversation.

The Justin Bieber bit is going in there.  I like it a lot.  It's quick, non-committal, and topical.  I'm a big fan of all these things, since I have very little time on stage, and I have to make sure that either a. a bit lands, or b. a bit is easy to shrug off if it doesn't land.

Ideally I'd like to lay off of my "old" material for the majority of this performance tomorrow, and the one on Tuesday.  I think keeping stand-up fresh for me is even more important than keeping it fresh for my venue (both matter, though!).  If I don't get a kick out of doing it, then I'll lose my motivation.

"So recently I was in the market for some porn on the internet, because I'm classy, and I came across an oriental porn titled: 'Korean Schoolgirl Fuck.'  I liked it: simple, to-the-point, not much room for interpretation.  The comments section was three pages long, and it was nerds arguing about whether she was Korean or Japanese.  It contained such riveting arguments as 'I watch a lot of anime, and therefore I recognize the Japanese language present in this video.' 

Someone followed that up with 'I'm asian and I take offense to this. We do not all look alike, whoever posted this video is a racist.'
At first I thought that disputing something as silly as this on a video that was made in someone's basement in Asia is a bit silly, but then I thought more about it, and I realized: 'what am I thinking?  Do I have no standards?'

I for one am elated that someone drew attention to the girl's nationality. As a gentleman of porn, there is no way I could jerk it to an improperly labeled video. The entire time I'd feel filthy, like I was debasing myself and doing something people would think is gross.

What sort of pervert would I look like if someone was on computer and found mislabeled porn in my meticulously organized porn database?  What if some anime enthusiast loaded this up, hoping to see some sweet Korean porn, and a Japanese girl was the one they were laying pipe on?  They'd think to themselves 'I thought this guy had an English degree, this is sloppy work.  As a professor of anime I give this labelling a C-.'"
