EPTthis is like a stripper popping out of a cake, and I'm focusing on how the cake tastes because I'm a cook, but what's really at hand is the titties.
right?

I'm not sure you understand the context of that clip. The standup routine is not supposed funny in any way on its own. The clip is part of a show depicting Jeremy attempting to learn how to act and failing, therefore the humor is that he fails to connect with his audience because he's such a gaming nerd. | ||

it is NOT SUPPOSED to be funny. I know you said "well it should be funny even if people don't know the character". Well the fact is that it shouldn't be, because then it doesn't relate to the show at all. Here's an idea, it is a wild shot but it just might work. Try watching a few episodes of the show, and then you'll understand who Jeremy is | ||

Anyways, the PP one was okay, but I guess you'd need to have watched some earlier PP. Their humour is pretty special and only funny to some people, I suppose. You should try to watch some of the other episodes, they have a lot of moments like this, where they kind of make fun of themselves, ish... But not really, you know? Eh... | ||

Unless you're workshopping. At least thats my experience, you're much more likely to be on fire if there's a crowd. Jussayin, waiting for mOnion to do this! Hope you do it at an open mic so its not bombing at a paid gig. | ||

Maybe you don't understand what he's trying to get across. Not only does mOnion get it, but the humor you're referring to is very distinctly un-funny. That's the point of what mOnion was saying. Just 'cuz Jeremy is a failure doesn't make him something to laugh at. Anyway, keep us posted on your standup routine :D | ||

He actually is funny as shit because he has a site with probably thousands of followers and got a tv show. You say the ' its funny cuz its him ' makes a comedian lose touch with what they're doing. Um.. what? Nearly every great comedian of national fame has something about their personality that allows them to be funnier than the run-of-the-mill comedians. Very few people could pull off a chapelle show standup or a chris rock joke and have it remain the same. The funniest thing about all this is that you made a blog about someone you know very little about. You essentially made a thread saying how bad you think a game was where Boxer lost to a bunker rush. | ||
