That's Entertainment

I got dragged away from my entertaining computer to be entertained by a set of entertainers across town last night. We had a general idea what to expect, but didn't really understand what was waiting for us on stage: a comedian, a guitarist, and a musical genius named Andy. It doesn't take much to capture my attention, but (generally speaking) I pay immediate heed to Stand-Up routines. Blaine Capatch was nearing the end of his set, playing with dorky little puppets and trying to get us to laugh. He whips out this “99¢ Only” bunny rabbit puppet - still stuck to its cardboard backing. According to him, the cloth-creature was missing an eye and its mouth was cock-eyed. So, this guy starts animating the puppet with his own voice, all muffled and slurred. In a split second, I went from zero to ludicrous speed. Hyena time! Since I was the only one busting a gut, I tried to contain myself. It didn't work. Honestly, that was the funniest thing I had seen / heard in a LONG time; I wish someone would have recorded it.

I had nearly forgotten that Call For Help marathon you did. That was unequivocally the funniest thing I have seen today.

You were so great on call for help. I really wish i could of seen it more, but we didn't get the channel till a month or two before you moved on.
You were the reason i started watching the show. You were the geek that brought excitement to tech. I didn't watch it to learn anything really, it was a nice way to make the transation between shool in the morning and work in the afternoon.
leo was a bad move, he is just the oppisit of you, Kevin should do call for help.

The gimping out of Chris Pirillo. That has to be, hands down, one of the funniest things I have ever seen.

I have sooo the same laugh. It bugs me though. One time in Reno, my boyfriend said something that was not that funny to anyone else. but to me it was like the funniest thing I had ever heard. I laughed so hard I was blubbering crying, then the waiter came by to see if I was ok.
It was sooo embarrassing. Not that you are a weirdo. much cooler than me (not, just tryin to make ya feel better hhaha). but i hate when you just cant get your body to stop laughing. that clip was very funny though.
