As a kid, we had a quicksand box. I was an only child....eventually.

He had one where he said he had a light switch in his house that did nothing. He flipped it on and off during the day, until one day a lady called him from Germany telling him to cut it out.

For some reason I love that one. Very surreal.

BTW, is the HBO special the one where he pulled a box of dehydrated water out of the cupboard?

King of the surreal one liners. OK there probably isn’t much competition in that market, but if there was he’d still be king.

[Jack of all Trades]

Someone stole all the furniture in my house, and replaced it with exact replicas.

[Dansong]

I have a map of the United States...actual size.

The sign said “eight items or less”. So I changed my name to Les.
