So if I'm ever to play Pryor, I can bring my experience. Nov 4, 2010 - Last May comedian Marc Maron interviewed Carlos Mencia on his podcast, WTF with Marc Maron (you have to listen to it — the Huffington Post compared it to the Frost-Nixon interview, and I agree). May 29, 2014 - Do you like cat jokes? 1 day ago - You need to fight that fire. I try now to write about ideas, that would be funny in any language, and don't rely on pull- back and reveals and confusion of meaning.” Here's Stewart on Americans, so you can see what German humor has done for his own shtick. Wayans questioned his mic technique. He jokes about women with weaves that are a little too fake, women with some an alligator, or smiling when facing a wolf. Gradually Projectile vomit is more comical, for example, if it occurs in someone else's car instead of our own, if it afflicts a stranger rather than oneself, or if it happens in a movie scene rather than real life. Sep 8, 2010 - One of my coping strategies, as you may have noted here, is to act like a jack-ass, but even a cross-cultural clown like me blanches at jokes in translation. May 29, 2014 - Say what you want about Seth MacFarlane (creator of Family Guy, executive producer of Cosmos),that man can write a “guy pooping into a hat” joke that'll really make you think.

And that the “I love you mom” joke was inspired by his brother and nephew, who played football in school. Apr 16, 2014 - New York Times critic Neil Genzlinger doesn't get the first “Haunted House”: “If the opening gag in your R-rated movie is an extended flatulence joke you should reconsider whether you're qualified to make such a movie,” he said. €�I am a sponge,” Mencia said. Just like you can't just volunteer for stand-up comedy. €�Doing stand-up has made me a better comedian. As an adult, I still love funny stuff -- in fact, most of what I write here on Catster is humor. Mar 25, 2014 - As you might expect, humor ratings for the mock tweets were lowest and offensiveness ratings were highest in the two weeks after Sandy hit, when the tragic nature of the event became evident with reports of damage, destruction, injury and death. What follows is the only Japanese joke I've ever tried to translate. I do too -- and here are some of the best ones I've heard. I'm funnier, I'm more articulate, my writing is better.
