Spotlight/Shoutout: Steven Wright

Image
So it is about time that I wrote the s/s for Steven Wright. He is monotone, and his voice is deep, but for a comedian he probably makes me laugh the most. He is been in my posts from days of way back when, but it is about time he earned a single-standing and landing the spotlight. I have been a fan of Steven Wright for a long time, and one of the things that attracted me most to his comedy was the fact that he is weird as fu*k. His jokes are strange, and the ideas behind them show the absurdities of life, and they also reveal the flaws of existence. It is like "A Wrinkle in Time" except instead of a novel, it is literally a "Wrinkle in Time." Hmmmmm....that didn't go over too well. So I will just add some of Steven's jokes. I was sad because I had no shoes, until I met a man who had no feet. So I said, "Got any shoes you're not using?" -- Steven Wright My theory of evolution is that Darwin was adopted. -- Steven Wright Someone sent me a postcar...
