Look, I don't know what kind of stuff you all think is funny, but I can tell you what I think is funny.

It's impractical jokers. Have you ever watched this show? There's four friends

0:14.1

have been friends forever. Have we talked about this? Maybe we've talked about this.

0:16.5

And what they do is they take turns sending one out at a time with like a little earpiece in or
