Description: You came for the laughs. You might leave with a few tears, a new perspective, or the uncomfortable realization that you’re not the only one figuring life out as you go. I Thought This Was a Comedy Show is a reminder that life is rarely just funny or just sad. It’s messy, surprising, sometimes heartbreaking, and often ridiculous. Through honest storytelling, unexpected punchlines, and a willingness to laugh at the hard stuff, JJ Barrows makes room for all of it. Because sometimes the funniest stories are the ones that hit a little too close to home.

Description: Once I hit my 30s, I realized I could not keep up with the young guns out there. I started dating younger guys just so I could find out if they had an uncle. I love a good uncle... one with a weathered look that says "I love kids, but I've seen some stuff." You know, a fun uncle. People call it a "funcle." Oh I went through a huge Funcle Phase!
Description: If you've read "The Art of Gathering," you've read about "The bob"... some one who is not a threat to the gathering, nor do they fulfill the purpose. You'd be just as okay is they didn't show up. We've all been bobs, the awkward invitee to a party in which we weren't the one personally invited... the awkward boyfriend/girlfriend, the aunt, the sister of a friend... we've all been there. Approach the party just claiming your bob-ness and by default, you aren't the bob anymore!
Description: I've always wanted to make my own hometown shirt. After painting a bunch of sea turtles this year and realizing my hometown is home to where to many hatch, BOOM! With a lot of color and love for my blessed isle, this design is now available in two options: front and back with small front logo, and front only with large logo! (check out Front and Back Pawleys Island tee shirt).
Description: I grew up in Pawleys Island, South Carolina where sea turtles come and lay their eggs on the beaches. The babies have to learn to make their own way to the ocean. It's tempting to want to help them, but the journey from the sand to the ocean strengthens and prepares them for ocean wildlife. All the beach houses on the island know... lights out! Sea turtles dig the dark!

Description: If you've ever struggled with eating issues, found freedom and the ability to laugh at yourself for your oddities, you've experienced recovery! As a former vegan (with an appreciation for the intentions of veganism), there's nothing quite like the guilt free feeling of enjoying a good burger. I'm just as proud to be a recovering vegan as vegans are to be vegan. Also makes a great humorous gift for someone who's always been an avid meat eater. Also it's stand up bit you can find over at YouTube.com/jjbarrows.
