I'm thinking about becoming a stand-up comedian, but I'm not funny and I have stage fright. What do you think I should do?

I do stand up, mainly for the military, as i am a Marine, and enjoy entertaining. But it is not for the timid, at all. you have to show emotion, you have to use the audience, you have to IMPROVISE! try being a writer, sit back and take note of the hilarities that occur throughout a day. tell stories to friends, not obviously trying to be funny, and see if how they react. Comedy can be found anywhere, at anytime, you just have to know how to SEE it. then you have to know how to PORTRAY it.

stage fright and not being funny are two good qualifications for a stand up comedian. everyone will laugh at you for the wrong reasons.
