A Joke
Posted by Scott Hughes Thu, 12 Jan 2006 23:31:00 GMT
Now, I consider myself a fan of good comedy. I wouldn’t necessarily call myself an aficianado, simply because I don’t have the time or energy to keep up with whose got the best material nowadays. I have a few favorite comedians I keep tabs on occasionally and I’m really familiar with some recent great acts (Bill Burr, Dane Cook, Sarah Silverman). On the other hand, there’s a few folks out there that think they have what it takes to be a comedian… Yet, they resort to just telling jokes (i.e. tired, obvious setup-punchline-repeat), as opposed to really connecting with your audience and making us laugh at true absurdities.
You might even agree with me that the obvious most trite expression of hack comedy would be the Blonde Joke. I’m of the opinion that if you’ve graduated past Middle School age and repeated a blonde joke, then we can’t be friends. That said, I’m going to be a little hypocritical here now… Because I really think you need to check out this blonde joke. No matter your feelings about blonde jokes or blondes, you’re going to laugh your ass off at this one.
