Mitch Hedberg was the absolute best. Here are a couple of his:
My fake plants died because I did not pretend to water them.
I bought myself a parrot. The parrot talked. But it did not say, "I'm hungry,"........ so it died.
I would imagine that if you could understand morse code, a tap dancer would drive you crazy.
I have an underwater camera just in case I crash my car into a river, and at the last minute I see a photo opportunity of a fish that I have never seen.
I played golf, I'm not good at golf, I never got good at it. I never got a hole in one, but I did hit a guy in one. And that's way more satisfying. You're supposed to yell "fore." But I was too busy mumbling, "there ain't no way that's gonna hit him."
On a traffic light green means go and yellow means yield, but on a banana it's just the opposite. Green means hold on, yellow means go ahead, and red means where the f**k did you get that banana?
I tried to walk into Target, but I missed. Damn.
