war vietnam size
The Vietnam war was fought over portion size.
yams balls may
Here's what I realized about the yam - it's the same colour as a Nerf ball. You may be wondering: 'Is he saying he ate a Nerf ball?'...
gay iran president
Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad claims there are no homosexuals in Iran, just like there are no gay conservatives in the US.
redneck america states
Nobody out-rednecks the great state of America.
placebo-effect missing golden-girls
I never thought I'd say this, but I miss voter fraud.
fathers-day valentine son
Don't confuse [Father's Day] with Valentine's Day, and here's why. Boy, will you creep him out. I can just tell you from last year, uh, even if they do like chocolate, they don't want it from their son.
death suicide lasts
The last thing we'll hear is some scientist saying 'It works!'
father wonderful grudge
The value of holding a grudge. And to always refer to my father sarcastically as Mr. Wonderful.
names late letterman
Never name it after yourself. Maybe we'll throw a with in there. That seems to work. Like Late Show With David Letterman.
differences musical atmosphere
At first the difference will be in whatever atmosphere I bring into it. It's not going to be like, 'I really want to do The Daily Show and I'd love to turn it into an abstract musical.' I like the format and the chance to satirize the news.
real kids home
The real challenge is when I'm at work, I'm at work. I'm locked in, I'm ready to go, I'm focused. When I'm at home, I'm locked in and I'm ready to go and I'm focused on home. We don't watch the show. We don't watch the news. We don't do any of that stuff. I sit down, I play Barbies. And sometimes the kids will come home and play with me.
moving jam comedy
Doing stand-up comedy is in the middle of a traffic jam getting everybody moving again.
lines paint stage
Typically, when you're with your friends, premises are coming up left and right. But when you're on stage, you must create the premise. So you have to create the premise, paint the picture and then deliver the punch line.
rap different might
Comedy is the only form of entertainment where the audience doesn't know what to expect. In an evening, you might get ten comics doing ten different things. That's not what happens when you go to hear music. There isn't a classical performance followed by a hoedown followed by rap.
