I've been married for almost two years and still, a telemarketer called me recently: "Have I reached Mr. and Mrs. [SGR]"? And reflexively I said, nah, but you've reached their son. Still not used to being referred to as a collective with my wife as Mr. and Mrs. Some things take time I suppose.

I hope you're still planning to get "September" by Earth, Wind & Fire played like I suggested. :p:

Thanks!

September is on the playlist :beer:

Some things will take even more time. I sometimes react like that too. It's been 12 years. I still fidget with my ring.

Chris D’Elia is not a good standup comic. He’s a funny dude but it doesn’t translate.

That's probably the biggest problem with comedy today. People think Funny=Funny, and a sitcom writer, a standup comic, and a John Oliver type aren't the same thing. There was no standup set worse than that Ilana Glazer special. It was like an AI Bot wrote a standup set after reviewing 5 million tweets.

Yuck, I didn't know she had a special. Not surprised to see it's with Amazon. You got guys like Andrew Schulz and Mark Normand self-releasing on youtube and meanwhile the comedy-adjacent get contracts for specials without ever having done an open mic. Smh man have some god damn respect for the game.

I mean, I'm saying the obvious but it's all "which person has a big enough following to get our money back plus some."

The era of "building your personal brand" is one of the worst timelines.

For how mild and tame Gaffigan is, he is surprisingly funny.

This guy is kinda funny, never heard of him til recently.
