A man walks into a bar (reddit version)

A man walks into a bar, sits and asks for a beer. The barman looks at him, and tries to start a conversation.
"What's your job, my fellow?"
"I'm a comedian" says the man, looking down and avoiding the barman eyes.
"Absolutely fantastic! My costumers are always depressed and sad-looking, please, tell them a joke!"
The man reluctantly starts telling a joke and, when he finishes, everyone laughs.
The couple of costumers who listened to his joke ask for another one, and so on, until a great number of people gather around him.
Seeing what is happening, the barman says:"you are a great comedian! You could become famous!"
The man immediately starts crying, amd no one can make him stop.
When he is able to talk again, the barman asks him:"Why did you start crying? I was serious, I was not joking!"
The man, sobbing and weeping off the last tears, says:"Indeed I could, but every time I tell a joke and everybody laughs, that fucking ShittyJokeExplanationBot takes all the money and the popularity!"
