Just a heads up for those who appreciate the comedic stylings of Mitch Hedberg.

Funny stuff.

3. Or, in my case, direction on what channel NOT to be on
Mitch Hedberg isnt funny.

"Rice is great when you're hungry and want two thousand of something." Call me the party pooper but that shit ain't funny.

This, OTOH, is quality comedy. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Txp8B4ek_kk

7. well, not many can compare to Richard Pryor
I do think Hedberg's funny, though. His quirkiness and his delivery amuse me. But different strokes :toast:

8. Doesn't the phrase "comedic stylings of" automatically mean "it's not funny"?
I don't know who Mitch Hedberg is, actually. But I'm at the age when there's all sorts of new celebrities out there whom I neither know nor care to learn about.

10. pretty much, unless you're referencing that connotation ironically
Edited on Sat Feb-06-10 12:50 AM by fishwax
(as I was) ;)

Hedberg is actually not new--he died about five years ago. But then he again he wasn't ever really a high-profile celebrity, so it's not unusual to not have heard of him, whatever one's age. :)

9. What happened to the Dufranes?
When you go to a restaurant on the weekends and it's busy, they start a waiting list, they say, "Dufrane, party of two, table ready for Dufrane, party of two." And if no one answers they'll say the name again: "Dufrane, party of two." But then if no one answers, they'll move on to the next name. "Bush, party of three." Yeah, but what happened to the Dufresnes? No one seems to care. Who can eat at a time like this? People are missing. You people are selfish. The Dufrenes are in someone's trunk right now, with duct tape over their mouths. And they're hungry. That's a double whammy. We need help. "Bush, search party of three. You can eat once you find the Dufrenes."
