I once woke up on a boat, but that wasn't where I fell asleep.

I love Halloween like Pac-Man loves to eat dots. For real, he's gotta be so sick and tired of dots

Hey, Pac-Man. Just a friendly word of advice. In my experience, if you just throw a couple fun-size Snickers in their bags, the ghosts will go away and leave you alone for like a whole year

Working out new material for my next standup comedy special. Think I've got my opener: Halloween again. All these bedsheet ghosts walkin around my neighborhood like I'm Pac-Man™️ or something.

The etymology of the word "Halloween" is fascinating. It's an old English contraction of the common phrase "Hello, weenie", which is how bullies would traditionally greet someone whose mom bought them a Pac-Man costume two years after it was popular, and beat them without mercy. For example.

👱‍♀️What brings you here for hypnosis? 🧔‍♂️I want to spend a day experiencing what it would be like if I didn't know how ruggedly handsome and irresistible I am 👱‍♀️I can't do that 🧔‍♂️Because it's too far-fetched even for a hypnotic suggestion? 👱‍♀️No, it's because you're a Boltzmann Brain 🧠 OK, but still

👱‍♀️Do you ever think about the Butterfly Effect? 🧔‍♂️Yeah, I often think about how different my life might have been if instead of Kevin my parents would have named me Fatty Fatty Four Eyes 👱‍♀️That's ridiculous 🧔‍♂️I know, that's why it's my younger brother's name instead 👱‍♀️ 🧔‍♂️He has perfect vision though

Mr. Monopoly is unfairly depicted as the selfish, soulless face of corporate greed, when there are so many better examples, like a certain senior assistant produce manager at the Gilberts Supermarket in Davisville who somehow never seems to have to work holidays like all the other assistant managers

Not to get all freakonomics or anything but as far as I can remember things only really started to suck this bad after Prince died, and I cannot dismiss that as mere happenstance

I think it was smart of the people who made the film Yesterday to make it about the Beatles because if they would have made it about a world without Matchbox 20 it might have lost a little bit of its emotional heft. But I'm pretty sure Ed Sheeran still would have made a weird plot-derailing cameo.

👱‍♀️ Hi Grampa 🧓 Please, call me Grandfather 👱‍♀️ Want some Pringles? 🧓 Back when I was your age in the early 1980s we only had one flavor of Pringles 👱‍♀️ Probably just the Original salted, right? 🧓 No, I'm pretty sure it was the Pizza flavored ones 👱‍♀️ I don't think that's right 🧓 Don't you sass me

I shouldn't be punished every time I accidentally forget to say Whopper *with cheese*. For heaven's sake Burger King. This is America. Cheese should be the default. McDonald's would be long out of business by now if they made you ask them to add a third bun to the middle of a Big Mac every time

It might cost a little more but if you're building a house you should use particle board because it's going to be stronger than boards that are only held together by atoms

I know money's tight right now, but I can still show you how to be a Looksmaxxer like me... on a budget! Lesson 1: Use a value-brand shampoo that fools people into thinking you're not as bald as you are¹ ¹Avoid overhead lighting at all times

I like the Italian people and their culture as much as the next guy, but at this point even the ghost of Amerigo Vespucci's mom is probably getting weirded out by the president obsessively renaming all these places after her son

Sometimes I feel like society is collapsing around me as a creeping collective psychosis possesses more of us and all I can do is bravely accept that this grim, soul-crushing reality is the new normal, and soldier on, knowing it's coming for me too. And sometimes I feel like strawberry ice cream 🍦

Whenever she finds a Dorito with more than the usual amount of Cool Ranch seasoning my wife offers it to me. And I eat it because she and I both know I will enjoy it one thousand percent more than she would. Simpatico. That's real love baby. #RelationshipGoals

Thieves should go back to leaving cryptic riddles and taunting clues at their crime scenes. What happened to pizzazz and panache? Are felony crimes all just about the money now?

👱‍♀️It was really nice meeting you.

👱‍♀️Wanna do Sober October with me this year? 🧔‍♂️What's that? 👱‍♀️You don't drink that month 🧔‍♂️Wouldn't you get really thirsty? 👱‍♀️Alcohol. You knew what I meant. No drinking alcohol 🧔‍♂️Yeah, but you didn't say alcohol, so it was funny 👱‍♀️ 🧔‍♂️You would actually die of dehydration after three days

Some of my favorite 1980s drummers and what I would guess they did if I didn't already know they were drummers: Phil Collins: Algebra teacher Bun E. Carlos: Math teacher (5th grade) Stewart Copeland: Famous choreographer Max Weinberg: George H.W. Bush's Attorney General David Robinson: Drummer

A heartfelt congratulations to my beautiful, amazing wife as we now celebrate the milestone one-thousandth consecutive night in a row she has dropped our TV remote on the floor. The one with tape over the battery compartment, and you have to press the "up" arrow extra hard to get it to work.

Looking back on it now, 40 years later, I think the only real difference between "real" Heavy Metal and "Hair Metal" is that the guys in Poison smiled and laughed more than the guys in Megadeth. And sold six million more records. There might be a lesson for you in there, grumpy

I recently learned that only kids who grew up in Warren, Pennsylvania in the 1980s had a Rax instead of an Arby's. Yeah, Arby's is better, but y'all missed out on Rax's depressed, middle-aged salesman cartoon mascot, Mr. Delicious. He told the truth. He prepared me for how much sucks to be an adult
