is there a single field where more people are terrible at it than stand up comedy

[Deleted member 4209]

why are so many of them so incredibly bad and still get on the air. i think even pop music has a higher percentage of at least passable talents than stand up does.

Some are always trying so hard to be funny tbh or they have to act like some overly hyperactive retard.

Chapelle is one of my fav comedians tbh
