Truly the best job in show biz: wear a stolen paper mache alien head, shoot soda out of your nose, crash through a sugar-glass shop window, and chase the motorcyclist who knocked over your fruit cart.
I found the video for Life on Earth! If you read "Actor - The Extra," then you might be curious about the actual video. I've attached at the bottom of the post.
Wow, comma asshole is better than in bed, although just for the record, the Chinese restaurants in Spain do not offer fortune cookies, but they do offer sushi or pad thai.
Great story, Adam - I humbly request to play your wife in the movie (I have just the wig, and I'm much prettier in person) just for the chance to deliver that line - look, I've already got it memorized: “Yes. For me, too. You say that every time we walk under the overpass.” I'll settle for a screen test, we have a bet going... 🖤
I would also like you to understudy for the part of his sister Ungrateful Child, the Younger. No screen tests, required. I would, however, like to see a headshot and a fake resume.
Here's something crazy: I read this comment last night and did a double-take. I released the heaviest piece and the furthest thing from funny yesterday morning, and I assumed you were writing about that (it is also in this "Actor" series). I had to get my mind around what, if anything could possibly be a "light read" -- and then I realized it was a different piece. Thank you for your kind comment. I'm glad you didn't bump into "Parting Glances" piece yesterday. it was not what you needed. Save it for when you're really, really happy. It will calm that down. 🤣

I'd be delighted, I was BORN to play Ungrateful Child the Younger.
My headshot was in Welcome to Anxiety. Here is my full acting resume, to date:
Posterior Camel/Christmas pageant
Jim the little Black boy/Tom Sawyer
Flying Monkey #2/Wizard of Oz
Lucifer the cat/Cinderella
Lazy Daisy/Alice in Wonderland
Sister Berthe the Stern/Sound of Music
This is like a Star Is Born and you are going to take my part.
But does the music video exist on YouTube? Inquiring minds would like to know...
This was hilarious, I needed it and I thank you for it.
Please may I throw my hat in the ring for the part of Ungrateful Child, the Elder? (I'll get botox, if I get the part)
The part is yours.
I'd like to thank the Academy...
Super late, but really laughed out loud at both the bald lines. Thank you - such a light read I needed today.

Haha! For now I’ll avoid it then. I was going to follow up and ask what other pieces should I start reading, but you’ve answered my question! Thanks!
Send me a best point of entry for your work.
This one’s not bad for mine:

Ok thanks! I'll for sure check it out! This is one of my favorites *resisting giving any form of a disclaimer*

This should be standard practice now that I think about it. Thanks for asking!
🛑 comma asshole. Thanks for another great read.
You're welcome comma asshole. 🤣
(that is going to be very confusing who airdrops into the comments section, but too bad for them ----- -------)
Late to this, but hah this was a great read. So glad the video was found!
Yes, we had Thespians, but mostly we had circus clowns. Wonderful, if interminable. I found the video, btw, and posted it below.
