I'm not sure where this would go but here is the story. I take a comedy class. It's almost halloween. My teacher said we should dress up in our costumes. Guess who I am? Phoenix Wright! Afterwards... The the teacher gave me an assignment: Make up some stand-up AS your character. That is, make stand-up comedy that Phoenix Wright would make. I have until Saturday. Please help inspire me... and give me Ideas. I will post the finished product on youtube because we will be recording it.

A surgeon, an Engineer and an Attorney were all sitting in a bar discussing who had the oldest profession.

The Surgeon says "On the 6th day God took a rib from Adam and made Eve therefore God is the first surgeon and surgery is the oldest profession of all!" he said proudly

The Engineer nodded sagely before pointing out "Ah but before that God made the Heavens and the Earth when there was simply chaos and confusion before all that! He was an Engineer before he was a surgeon so Engineering is the oldest" he said smugly.

They both looked at their friend the Attorney expecting him to state his case, so the Attorney simply shrugged

Spoiler: Punchline

Really you lucked out Lawyers aren't exactly an uncommon topic for stand up.
BAM Here's some lawyer funnies.

You misunderstand... I need Phoenix Wright jokes. Not even jokes. Stand up comedy. Stand up comedy that Phoenix Wright would do. Not lawyer jokes. Not Lawyer stand up comedy. I will be dressing up as Phoenix Wright. I will be doing stand up as Phoenix Wright. I need Topics that Phoenix Wright can make fun of. Topics that phoenix wright would know. Not: a lawyer walks into a bar..., 3 lawyers and a blonde..., God meets a lawyer... etc. The stand up comedy is first person from Phoenix's point of view.

I need to know a topic that Phoenix Wright would know and can make fun of.

....He would know law.....he would make fun of law.
Making fun of your job is an ancient art practised since the prehistoric era when the various creatures in Fred Flintstones house would complain about their jobs.

Mammoth Vacuum Cleaner after a long day's work: "And you think your job SUCKS"

Though if you really insist on jokes Phoenix Wright would do...he's pretty snarky any kinda sarcastic humour would go with him.

He could make observational humor (uuuh is that the right term) about people he knows and their weird habits or characteristics or something they've done, like Maya, Larry, Edgeworth, or whomever you want. Phoenix Wright characters have a lot of weird character traits to talk about, so it's not too difficult.
Make sure to provide a thorough background that's not too lengthy with your jokes, though.

Phoenix: "So I went to the Job centre for an appointment and sat down for an interview and the interviewer was astounded"
"*posh voice* You have quite a list of skills here, exorcism, communicating with spirits, busting down doors, driving people to fits of madness, causing lightning to strike people indoors...wh-what did you say your last job was again?"
Phoenix: Lawyer.

Really I don't think you can pull it off unless they know Phoenix Wright.
