[Spotlight comes up. The comedian walks to the mic, glances at the audience, and smiles.]
Comedian:
Hey, everyone! Great to be here. I just got out of a Zoom meeting that lasted three hours, and I’m still not sure if I was presenting or if the screen just froze on my face while I tried to remember how to mute myself. You ever notice how the “mute” button has become the most powerful thing on the internet? It’s like a tiny, invisible bouncer that decides whether the world hears you or not. I’ve spent more time hunting for that little square than I have hunting for my keys.
Speaking of keys, does anyone else feel like their house is turning into a high‑security vault? I have a smart lock that talks to my phone, a smart thermostat that knows when I’m home before I do, and a smart fridge that can tell me I’m out of milk—while I’m standing in front of it, holding a half‑filled carton. The fridge is basically judging me now. “You’ve had three sodas today. Maybe try water?” I’m like, “You’re a fridge, not a therapist!” And the worst part is the fridge never apologizes when it’s wrong. I once asked it for “something healthy,” and it gave me a bag of chips because “they’re low in fat.” Yeah, that’s the logic of a machine that thinks “low fat” is a personality trait.
I’ve also been trying to get back into the gym. The other day I walked into a class that promised “high‑intensity interval training.” I thought that meant the instructor would shout at me, “You’re doing great!” Instead, it was a silent room full of people staring at their phones, waiting for the next notification. The only interval I felt was the time between my heart rate spiking and me realizing I’d forgotten to put my headphones on. I’m pretty sure the treadmill was the only thing moving—my mind was stuck on “Did I lock the front door?”
And then there’s the whole “healthy eating” trend. I tried a plant‑based burger the other day. It looked exactly like a regular burger, but the taste was… different. The chef told me it was “crafted to mimic the experience of meat.” I’m like, “I don’t need an experience; I need a meal that doesn’t make me question my life choices.” I ordered a side salad, and the waiter asked if I wanted “dressing on the side.” I said, “No, I want it on my conscience.” The salad was so small I could have used it as a garnish for a garnish. I’m starting to think the only thing getting bigger in my life is the stack of takeout menus on my fridge.
Let’s talk about the news for a second. Every headline now starts with “Scientists discover…” and ends with “and it could change everything.” I’m waiting for the day a scientist discovers a way to make my Wi‑Fi signal actually work in the bathroom. Until then, I’m stuck streaming a documentary about the Great Barrier Reef while I’m in a shower that’s more like a sauna. The only thing I’m learning is how badly my hair reacts to steam.
All right, I’m going to wrap this up before my phone buzzes again. If you’ve learned anything tonight, it’s this: life is full of little absurdities—mute buttons, smart fridges, and plant‑based burgers. The trick is to laugh at them before they start judging you back. Thanks for listening, and remember—if you ever feel invisible, just check your Zoom settings. Good night!
