I only got 6 out of 12.

I'm pissed at myself

 

I got 7, and I find neither of them funny.

 

I got 11 out of 12. Missed the one about the emergency brake and I've never heard of Steven Wright so that just tells you how awesome I think Mitch Hedberg was.

Saw him live about a year before he died. Dude looked stoned but he was hilarious. His two CDs still give me fits even though I pretty much know every word by heart now.

"How can you eat at a time like this? There's people missing!"

 

You've never heard of Steven Wright yet love Mitch Hedberg? I feel so sorry for you. I find Hedberg funnier but only slightly.

I got 11 out of 12. I missed the subliminal advertising executive one. Must have missed that line.

 

I don't listen to a lot of stand-up comedy and gave it up right around the time I got sick of Dane Cook. The quotes make it seem like he's similar to Hedberg. I'm guessing from your tone that's he's at least up there.

Hmm.

Perhaps I'll give him a listen.

 

He's basically Mitch Hedberg but less druggy (though still druggy) and more psychotic. Here's a video:

 

Got 7 of 12. Kinda bummed with myself. I have all (I think) three of Hedberg's albums.

 

Oh. I know that dude. Didn't know the name though.

 

As you can see from my sig, I'm kind of a Hedberg fan, and Steven Wright was the first comic I saw live (in Columbia, Mo., in 1986.) So I'm disappointed to report I only got 8 out of 12.

Hedberg basically perfected the Steven Wright style, although with a great deal of chemical help. RIP.

 

I think Pringles original intention was to make tennis balls... but on the day the rubber was supposed to show up a truckload of potatoes came. Pringles is a laid-back company, so they just said, "Fuck it, cut em up!"

10 out of 12. Killed it.

 

Got 10 of 12.

Hedberg is an all-time favorite, and during college I got to write a story about Wright, who performed at our school. Dude is a strange, funny man. His scenes in So, I Married an Axe Murderer are fantastic.
