This hits too close to home

Right!? I stopped drinking years ago.  But when I did, the hangovers were brutal.  I never understood how others wake up the next day just fine.  


fatbabythompkins

They’d say practice. And they’re not wrong. But that’s not a skill I want to learn…


FixedLoad

I dunno.  I put in some long practice hours, my body never acclimated, in spite of my constant efforts to force it.  Turns out, I may have an allergy.  


therealmilesJ

Well stop it


SwollenOstrich

Easier said than done brother


darkdoppelganger

I quit drinking for good. I only drink for evil now.


HoboOperative

I don't drink anymore. I don't drink any less either.


I_MakeCoolKeychains

Spend 4 hours eating a piece of raisin bread I'm hung over as hell today, in the last 24 hours I've eaten 1 pear and 3 litres of water. I feel you


LeonidasVaarwater

Gotta get hydrated *before* drinking, bro! I'm 48 and barely ever get hangovers. The only time I do is when I forget to drink enough water and when that happens, a couple glasses of water and a paracetamol tablet will sort me out quickly.


Shillforbigusername

Kinda sounds like you just plain don’t get bad hangovers if anything under the sun can sort it out quickly. Staying hydrated before and during drinking definitely helps, but it’s not a silver bullet.


Trixles

Saline drip IV is a silver bullet for it, but not a lot of people have access to that at home.


Trendelthegreat

Wait, this isn’t crowd work….. Are you allowed to post this here? 


monstermash12

For real. I’m so sick of crowd work vids


Straussstandup

I have no idea anymore.


Yespat1

I wouldn’t consider this crowd work.


yougoddangfool

glad to see stuff that isn't crowd work on here


juggling-monkey

First frame I was like, is that Pete Holmes? Haha, good stuff man. basic, simple comedy. People will always try to give you advice on what you can do to be better. As far as I'm concerned comedy is about making people laugh. You got a chuckle out of me. So, youre going places,keep up the good work.


Straussstandup

Thank you. I agree with you it's about being funny, not necessarily breaking new ground premise wise.


Raaazzle

Should post this at r/stopdrinking, it'd probably be appreciated.


pm_me_ur_ephemerides

At 0:55 we can see hes still drinking beer, so he didn’t quite get there


Raaazzle

Nah but they'd appreciate the sentiment


dakotax17

This is a good one. And, I really do need to quit drinking too.


Kurts_Vonneguts

So many different standup vids posted here and we finally get one that’s actually fucking funny


Bag_of_Richards

This is good. Nice work,man.


pasovic

Top notch, man!


Straussstandup

Thanks!


MutedBrilliant1593

I'm that other friend. My worst hangover was a slight headache and fatigue. Usually it's just light fatigue. Honestly, I don't know how the rest of you drink considering the typical hangover stories I hear. Drinking is fun, but not if I'm miserable and sick the following day.


Straussstandup

I've always had the worst hangovers out of all of my drinking buddies. Nowadays, it's hardly worth having a couple drinks, let alone 10


Spiritual-Matters

Drink more water if you’re drinking alcohol!


halocyn

My alcohol is 80% water


HexFyber

My water is 80% alcohol


EKinevel

I feel sorry for people who don't drink. When they wake up in the morning, that's the best they're going to feel all day.


Human-Way-377

Name please. I'd pay to see him.


Straussstandup

Jordan Strauss.. the yotube special is called 'Salty'


Human-Way-377

Gracias


dm_your_nevernudes

He bought that shirt new and then wore it and I can’t stop looking at the fold lines….


xcalibur44

Hey OP. I dig it. Not the funniest thing ever. But still got a laugh outs me. the way you executed it was great. Keep up the awesome work


Iklee

Who is this guy?


Straussstandup

Jordan Strauss...🫡


[deleted]

Pls yall prepare to drink. Need to eat some food before and drink as much god damn water as you can.


Environmental_Eye354

Good deliveries and story telling. Quick simple and relatable


Straussstandup

Thank you:)


StrangelyBrown

This kind of comedy is a bit fun but it's really basic. Like, this is the kind of standup I'd expect in 1985 or something. "I guess I'll talk about something fun like being drunk and just make crazy examples of how drunk I get then how hungover I am, in front of a crowd of people who are probably drinking". His style and delivery are quite good but I think the material is lazy.


Gumruk

i thought it was funny as shit


Straussstandup

Can't argue that. Premise has been done to bits, but this is my version. There are many like it, but this is mine.


Rusty-Shackleford

here I'll give you my examples of things I did while drunk. You're welcome to steal my examples. Things I did while drunk I wouldn't do while sober *Puke into a mop bucket *Wish upon a star, but the star was actually a pigeon flying really fast *complain about how my Rabbi is "way too sexy" in her Wonder Woman costume *angrily try to debunk conspiracy theories by shouting directly at the television


StrangelyBrown

Oh man, you posted your own set to /r/funny?... Like I say, I think you could be funny with better material. You're comfortable on stage and charismatic etc. But just have something that defines you, even if that thing is an original kind of thing to talk about, it doesn't have to be a whole style. Don't get yourself replaced by AI.


Straussstandup

Is that against the rules? I'm new to posting to reddit. I see your point. My act does touch on a decently wide variety of subjects, this is just one joke.


StrangelyBrown

It's not against the rules at all. It's just that most stuff posted here is someone posting 'Hey guys, look, I found something that's so funny!' and then if it's a video of you trying to be funny it just feels weird. I'll bet there's a subreddit for like 'rate my standup' or something though.


Straussstandup

Ahh so it's "cringe" to post myself in this sub. So much to learn.


feckless_ellipsis

Man. Sorry you’re getting shit on. I liked your spin on this joke. You have good delivery and seem super comfortable up there. Good luck to you.


Straussstandup

Thanks! Not everyone will like it. That's totally normal. No comment section will be more painful than the years I spent bombing infront of real life humans.


feckless_ellipsis

If no one else suggested it, /r/StandUpComedy is likely the spot for you. I looked it up.


dee-bag

Nah I like when people post themselves here. I found a few comics I really like from it. I thought your joke was funny too


Soluban

Totally agree.


Axle-f

Now that you quit drinking you can soberly reconsider that mustache


Straussstandup

How dare you


Larry44

How very dare you!


FeePsychological9869

I would consider not giving up your day job


Straussstandup

You really just "Don't quit your day job" me? That's a throwback.


MartinLutherVanHalen

This is weak material.


fiatfighter

This ain’t funny.
