Broadway performer (and hottie) John Carroll writes another (very) funny piece for the HuffPost about odd jobs he has taken while chasing the dream. Well worth the read!

sorry, i don't care how badly he screws up the drink order, if john carroll jumps up onto a bar in front of me in his underwear and puts his ear in my mouth, he is totally getting a tip!!!

"She-she-fu-fu"? DO YOU MEAN "Chi-chi, foo-foo"? Good Christ WHO EDITED THIS PIECE????

And he refers to a "giant spoon" as life-sized. I don't know about John but my "life-sized spoons" fit nicely in my hand. Does he mean "giant sized?" Or maybe "larger-than-life-sized?"

OK HuffPost, I am officially embarrassed for you. If that piece was paid for, well, journalism is in deep trouble.

I couldn't get through it. He's credited as a "Broadway Performer and Writer". Ugh. Technically, I suppose it is true. He did write...something.

Awww, I don't think it was badly written. He's just trying a little too hard to Sedaris us into submission.

This guy went to Juilliard and he's not steadily working as a performer?

Yes, believe or not, your Julliard diploma does not double as "Get into Broadway Free" card.

Poor, poor guy. I mean, here he wants to be a dancer and performer, and he's *forced* to spend some time working as a dancer and a performer at Disney World! And Radio City Music Hall! Wow, it's a hard life.

Maybe he thinks it shows a sense of style, but I don't understand why sometimes he acts coy ("I danced for a certain well known modern dance company", but you know, must keep quiet about who it is, or not mentioning Daisy Eagan by name), and other times name drops Twyla Tharp. AND he had to work *retail*! Because nobody but poor starving performers are forced to work jobs like that...

I thought it was funny...except when it came to that awful Dahmer joke he made. from RC in Austin, Texas

P.S. For you young people who are not familiar with Jeffrey Dahmer, he lured young men and then killed/consumed some of them. Nothing f'ing funny about that Mr. John Carroll!
