Re: The Stand-up Comedian Thread
It was refreshing to have him talking about stuff. Just stuff you know? Not making a statement about anything.

Re: The Stand-up Comedian Thread
It kinda me me realize i miss this type of comedy. Pretty much every stand up these days is a huge statement about something.

I enjoyed Yvonne Orji's HBO special. The cultural stuff was awesome and I loved hearing the crowd finish sentences with and/or for her. Mostly amusing and fun, it was only occasionally laugh-out-load funny. But I still enjoyed watching it.

Re: The Stand-up Comedian Thread
yeah, he was baked. I liked it a lot, but im not sure him naming Kobe was a wise choice. The dude was a rapist. Not the best kind of guy to talk bout.
I wonder what the deal was with the people going to that place to see him. If they paid i would be ¨gimme those pussy jokes¨
