I have only two coworkers (or cow-orkers as I prefer to hyphenate them across lines) and neither of them really 'get' KATG-humour. But one of them doesn't even really get humour, unqualified, so they may be unrepresentative. I can't imagine either of them getting excited by the language though.

Last time I looked, Michael Carrino was in the lead. He's a funny guy. Mike, too, is pretty funny. I quite liked his delivery, less mannered than many with some pretty good material.

But I'm going to have to go with Jeremy's deadpan. It's so unpretentiously dark. Anyone who tells time with smurfs, does girlfriend arithmetic, and can go out on a Helen Keller joke can't be all bad.

Oh, and the mystery foam pillow that was left behind is mine....

Has anyone else noticed Chemda's increasing use of "cute"? At first I found it cute, now it's just irritating me. Maybe because it reminds me of my cousin who went through a similar phase except with the word "true". That phase was right around the time he escaped from a psychiatric facility and over state borders.

[Junkenstein]

Nah, she always said that.

[Bucho]

I could listen to Chemda do the drunk voice all day and all night and then all of the next day and night. "Old Man" and "Loorng Oyland Jew" can take a break for a year or two, the "Hiccuping Drunk" is her funniest voice by far. It's magical.

I don't know about that Junk, but I do know I'm done hearing people say, "OMG people saw me laughing in public - they must've thought I was a shortbus case." Why, are your earbuds invisible or something? Do you live somewhere that the public has never heard of or encountered mp3 players or even walkmans? Are you Amish?!?

If I see someone laughing in public and they have headphones or earbuds on why in Hades would I assume they're window-lickers? Unless they also have a Carrot Top t-shirt on obviously.

Agreed Buches, but i have to say that i caught my share of bad stares because i was listening to comedy on a train or in a public place, and since stand-up is non-existent here, people cant fathom somebody laughing because of something they're listening too.

Also, public laughter is regarded weirdly in general. When i was a kiddie kid (about 10) i remember going on a trip with my mother. I was reading a Calvin And Hobbes book. I laughed out loud. My mother watched the other passengers of the train embarassed then told me the stop. I tried but the thing that made me laugh remained lodged in my head, like a stupid song. So i laughed again. She took me out of the train compartment and slapped me a couple of times. So i stopped laughing.

I kept being afraid of laughing in public for a while then i decided i didnt give a fuck and whenever somebody gave me a blank stare of disapproval, i stare at them back.

ADD: to anyone who likes Chemda's impressions (and if you dont, you're a commie-fag-junkie-kiddie-diddler) please buy her prank CD. It's a beauty. I listen to it regularly. Her voice makes me cry like a pre-pubesxcent girl when she sings but she's hysterically funny on that. Do it.
