Who applauds a joke? Why the hell would you clap your hands after a funny joke? LAUGH. Clapping has nothing to do with comedy, and it always slows down the rhythm of the routine.

And what kind of 14-year-old child "woo"s at a standup routine? It didn't bother me until I watched some Dane Cook clips tonight on YouTube, and half the crowd just woos instead of laughs.

Laughing should be the only kind of feedback allowed in a comedy show.
Guess that makes YOU a comedy show.
