Indeed. Where's the humor?

The fact that these are quotes from a comedian would make me think that they're supposed to be funny.

Exactly.

I mean take this for example:

"You can't scare a wino! Wino's ain't scared of nothin' but runnin' out of wine."


....How is that remotely funny???

It seems like more of an observation to me than something that's funny. It's about as funny as saying "Hey...look the grass is green!"

Obviously you've never ventured out of Suburbia. It is the same reason Ezel(however you spell his name) was funny in Friday. He was a crackhead. He acted like a crackhead. THAT'S FUNNY IF YOU KNOW HOW CRACKHEADS ACT. If you spend all your damn time typing on your laptop at Starbucks you would NOT find it funny.

Here's a for instance:

We were downtown one night at what was called the "Nationals" (illegal street races). A bum/crackhead/wino appeared with a concrete block and just randomly threw it at someone. Two guys chased after him, and came back about 2 minutes later. Everyone said: "WTF happened?" They said: "He was a crackhead, couldn't catch him." THAT'S FUNNY. Crackheads *are* fast. They are *are* hard to catch. To you -- you wouldn't understand it -- but to see it was hilariously true.

do you understand?

What does watching Pryor have to do with anything?

I simply stated that the quotes posted are not funny at all.

Do you understand or do you need me to connect the dots?
