<title>Breaking: Honesty in Craigslist Writing Gigs Ad</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>We were half tempted to email him and find out who it is. Half.</p>
<p>This guy is right and being totally upfront &#8211; he does need <a href="http://losangeles.craigslist.org/lac/wrg/1134352021.html">writers</a>:</p>
<blockquote><p>STANDUP JOKE WRITER WANTED (L.A.)<br />

<p>Nationally known standup comedian (from The <strong><a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/Howard-Stern-profile.html">Howard Stern</a></strong> Show &amp; more) seeks joke writer. Send sample of jokes in vein of Def Comedy Jam, <strong><a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/Chris-Rock-profile.html">Chris Rock</a></strong>, <strong><a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/Bernie-Mac-profile.html">Bernie Mac</a></strong>, <strong><a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/Richard-Pryor-profile.html">Richard Pryor</a></strong>, <strong><a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/Chris-Tucker-profile.html">Chris Tucker</a></strong>. Point of view is black, angry, dirty, even ghetto. Imitate, even parody <strong><a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/Eddie-Griffin-profile.html">Eddie Griffin</a></strong> and <strong><a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/Paul-Mooney-profile.html">Paul Mooney</a></strong>.</p>
<p>Send one page of sample jokes. (Your next question is, how do you know I won&#8217;t steal them? Answer: because I&#8217;m not <strong><a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/Carlos-Mencia-profile.html">Carlos Mencia</a></strong> or <strong><a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/Robin-Williams-profile.html">Robin Williams</a></strong>. I do not steal. Also, you would see me do them on TV and sue me.)</p>
<p>EXAMPLE: Y&#8217;all watch UFC &#8211; Ultimate Fighting Championship? White folks love that shit. They should call it Ultimate Fighting Caucasians. Brothers hate that shit, cause we already got Ultimate Fighting Championship: its called PRISON. Same thing: they lock yo ass in a cage, some motherfucka beat yo ass to a pulp, then grab yo dick. Oh yeah, there&#8217;s some dick grabbing going on in UFC. If you watch UFC, you part fag. Guys in tights, wrestling and grabbing each other, music blasting &#8211; that shit&#8217;s like a gay nightclub. You call it UFC, I call it West Hollywood.</p>
<p>Saw this movie called Candy Man. Horror movie about a black man going around killing white folks. That&#8217;s my kinda movie. I like the premise: 1) he&#8217;s black and 2) he kills white folks. Genius. But how come he don&#8217;t gotta mask? Friday the 13th: Jason gotta mask. Halloween: Mike Meyer&#8217;s gotta mask: Nightmare On Elm Street: Freddy Krueger got a mask. How come the Candy Man ain&#8217;t got no mask? &#8216;Cause white folks think a black man scary enough just being black. What&#8217;s next? A movie called: Black Man. What&#8217;s he do, stab people? No. Chop people up? No. Hide in the bushes, jump out &amp; do some scary shit? Nope. What&#8217;s he do? Just stand there and be black. AHHHHH! I got nightmares.</p>
