Doesn’t anyone care? They must be really hungry!
I'm still folding it...
Some of the humor is lost in the writing. He has the most deadpan delivery style that it’s possible to have which really enhances the brilliance of his jokes. One of the best comedians ever and clean too.
You’re so right especially about the deadpan delivery. He is truly gifted. I miss that kind of stand up comedy. Now we get profanity bordering on porn in most cases, imho.
Jackie was unique.........crying most of the time in his routine.........funny man.
A buddy of mine sent me a post card with a picture of earth taken from outer space. On the back it said, “Wish you were here.”
Are these all really Stephen Wright quotes... they seem downright cheery!
I love Steven Wright’s stuff, but haven’t heard anything about him in years.
I also liked Mitch Hedberg, a very funny and talented comedian. If only he could have stayed away from drugs. A tragic loss.
Mitch Hedberg: "I like rice. Rice is great if you're really hungry and want to eat two thousand of something."
Okay you got me. A little hyperbole, but he was very funny.
LOL....good one.
I bought an irregular phone- it doesn’t have a 7.
A friend stopped me and said- hey you never call me any more.
I said I can’t call everyone, my phone doesn’t have a 7.
He said, that’s weird, when did you get it?
I said I don’t know, my calendar doesn’t have any 9’s!
Steven Wright is awesome!
Here’s another Boston comedian that’s different. Anyone remember Emo Phillips?
I liked him and found his brand quite entertaining.
A couple that I recall are the one about being attracted to his dental assistant so he ate a bag of Oreos before his cleaning.
And the one about getting a dog and walking him around NY and upon their return he says, there we’re done...
“I put instant coffee in a microwave oven and almost went back in time.”
LOL!!!
The copy looked just like yours until I hit ‘post’.
Old and ignorant - too stubborn to learn the techie stuff.
thx RB

... but a cop pulled me over for speeding.
He said, “Where do you live?” And I said,
“Right here!”
I once put instant coffee in a microwave oven. I almost went back in time.
How long is a piece of string?
