Studies now show best way out of poverty is direct cash injection not social programs. I'm going to fix the homeless problem by giving them money. The money is counterfeit so either they get a sandwich or go to jail, win-win. Also the secret service was started w focus to catch counterfeiters, what a wild pivot to protect the president.. Odd they've Been called the secret service entire time.
I'd love to workshop ideas in here w you guys if anyone's interested.
I'd also avoid using rape jokes early on in your career. Reason is simple, you won't be able to control the crowd well enough should it turn on you. Pros can do it because they can actually dominate a crowd very quickly, most of the time. In your case it's not worth taking that risk, yet.
Second one didn't really click with me, maybe just because it wasn't delivered the way you may finally deliver it. I do like the premise of a joke that starts with "Shouldn't the secret service have a better name, if it wants to stay so secret?" and go from there.
