Wolfman has nards?!?

I this where we can put in requests?  I'd like to see this gang LARP some Call of Cthulhu.

LIVERS BOOM!

I think he is holding on to that self-loathing for dear life, his downtrodden persona is what let's his guests feel comfortable opening up to him.  If he were to embrace the newfound success, I don't think he could continue doing what he is doing.  He originally went into this whole venture with a 'I got nothing to

ZOMG IMHO WTF PWNS or GTFO….
FML.

I do own a computer, so I guess I am fucked.  At least in the self-serving sense.

What's this guy doing polling terrorists anyways?  Seems unnecessarily dangerous…

ARRGGG, my dreadlocks got stuck in the bead curtains!

You need to get down with Game of Thrones.  The best parts of diplomacy and Mare Nostrum, but way more action oriented.  Plus if you are into the universe, you can savor the flavor.  Nothing beats yelling "You will bend the knee!!!" to the person you are about to drop the warhammer on.  Only problem is getting 5 other

I was introduced to what I will refer to as 'hard-core' board games 2 years ago, and Diplomacy was mentioned a few times as something that I would like.  Last year I finally got to play.  Not on a physical board, but over email during a 6-month period.  It was one of the greatest experiences of my gaming life.  It's

There seems to be this phenomenon currently where now that people have seen hecklers slammed by comedians on youtube, they somehow think this is something a majority of comedians enjoy doing.  They do not.  It is something they are forced to deal with because the world is full of self centered assholes. I guaruntee

You are not a laugh track, but you are one of many people who paid for a ticket to see an artist perform his craft.  How is it acceptable to sabatage said show?  I find it annoying for people to interupt any performance I am watching…

How is the giant monkey choir?  I have heard good things…

Being misanthropic at home blows.  How can I express my hatred of other people when I am all alone?

"Many comedians enjoy slapping hecklers down"False.
You clearly know little about the art of stand up comedy and I am guessing know no stand up comedians.  As a comedian you spend enormous amounts of time and life-energy crafting jokes which you are performing in front of a paying audience.  This is understandably a

I think that says more about Australian comedy than it does hecklers.

I think what this article is really trying to highlight is that these writers advocating heckling know FUCK-ALL about standup comedy.  Anyone who does realizes that interupting a joke set-up completely and utterly ruins it.  Whether or not you can put said heckler down, that particular joke is toast.  Fuck these

Yeah that's the one.  Whether or not you like the character, that particular sketch shows some magical chemistry between those guys and its funnier than anything I've seen put out by SNL in the past decade by a country mile.  Go watch it, I implore you.

You can go ahead and add Shanghai based comedy group Kung Fu Komedy to that list.  While it has yet to produce any major breakout stars, in a few years it will be known as the incubator for internatial sensations like Joe Schaefer and Audrey Murray.  
You may not know it yet, but soon you will all crave comedic

Hell yes to In Living Color.  I went back recently and watched some of the old sketches on youtube, curious if they held up over all these years, and was floored by how funny those bits still are.  Specifically the 'Wanda' sketch in which (s)he is on the dating show, with suitors DAG, Tommy Davidson, and the Wayans
