It was a Cumtown bit, but I also did the same thing before that. I think it’s universal, like dreaming you forgot to show up to a class for a full semester.

It's funnier to imagine him getting into arguments over fanpatches of Final Fantasy games that didn't come out on NES.

Wasn't there a claim that he'd go into YouTube comments and argue with 9/11 truthers lol

foxworthy in the 80s had less culture war than the connotation today, i remember him talking about life before seatbelts and him slamming face-first into a 'full ashtray' when his dad hit the brakes. riding the line between hootin' and ironic was his schtick

my dad loved his sigourney weaver bit

Jeff also never tried to be a conservative comic, he doesn’t really have conservative material, he just has “hick” and “white trash” material. My mom shows me Tik Toks of southern fried comedians and it’s absolutely bizarre to see someone waddle on stage and try to tell jokes about abortion being wrong or whatever.

Foxworthy and Ron White are S-Tier comics, Bill Engval never struck a chord with me, but turns out he’s popular with dads. Larry TCG secured his bag by playing a white trash minstrel, he sucks, and David Cross taking him down via an open letter in the newspaper about growing up in Georgia and actually being a red neck comic from the south is one of my favorite moments in the history of comedy.

Maybe he should've called himself David "Burning" Cross to get real recognition from the south

I liked Engvall in middle school as like a southern version of Dave Barry. There was also a blue collar adjacent guy named Henry Cho whose entire set was “what if an Asian guy had a Southern accent?”

This is such a great example of setting up expectations you then undermine, and timing. This could be in a textbook.

I hope you get crushed to death by a fat guy trying to commit suicide by falling out of a window and when the paramedics answer the local bystander asking if you'll live, he just says "fat chance" and laughs.

There was a guy in the WWE around that time who went by Jimmy Wang Chang that also had the same gimmick.
