After my last girlfriend broke my heart,

My best friend tried to console me with the old line about there being "a lot a fish in the sea."

Which sounded trite, to me . . . at first.

But then I remembered my Fish-Fucking Fetish.
 
Thank you kindly, Redleader:

For the compliment, and also, for all of the (oftentimes, VERY helpful) feedback.

Sometimes "they" get it; sometimes "they" don't.

Thankfully for me, I didn't get into stand-up to please "them."

As the world's all-time greatest joke-writer, the late great Mitch Hedberg put it:

"You can't please all the people all the time.

And last night, all those people were at my show!"
 
This joke made its debut onstage tonight.

And . . .

. . . it KILLED!

Thank all of you guys SO much for all of the feedback - positive, negative, and other.

It's very helpful to me, and it means a lot.

And if, by some strange chance, I am ever fortunate enough to get the opportunity to host the Academy Awards, I shall be sure to throw up the letters "BL" gang-symbol-style as a shout out!

Respek!

Fo' Realz Yo!

Glad to hear it worked in your favour.

Thanks much, RedLeader. :)

Telling a joke with a tongue-twister punchline is a sign of a confident comendian :)

Thanks for the implied compliment - funny you should mention that, however, as in this case, the compliment is undeserved - in the hours before it got to the stage, I changed the punchline to:

"But then I remembered . . . how much I *LOVE* to fuck fish."

Less risky for the exact reason you noted.

Much Respect & Thanks Again,

LL
