I like Tom Segure ( Some People Suck )

 

 

Okay, here is what I think is funny about this.

He is talking about everyday things that we have all experienced and can relate to. A baby crying in a movie theater or on a plane is definitely annoying. We have all been there.

What I really like is the way he tells the story. It sounds natural, almost like he is talking to you at a party or just casually telling you something that happened to him. That takes time on stage to be able to pull off.

He has probably told this joke a hundred times, but when he tells it, it feels like he is telling you the story for the first time.

I also like how he paints a picture for you. He says something like, “I’m at the theater and I’m watching the movie for five minutes and I hear... WHAAA!”

That part is funny because you are not expecting him to make a baby noise. Then he starts describing the family sitting behind him, and eventually he gets to the point where he says, “Now this is insane.”

That is where I think you want to be when you are doing comedy. Take an everyday situation that people understand and find the funny part in it.

I think the voices make the story even funnier. You describe the situation, get people interested in what is happening, and then hit them with something they aren't expecting someone to say or do.

To me, this is what comedy should be: an interesting story that takes you somewhere and then hits you with the punch line.

I think that is what comics should shoot for, and for me, Tom Segura really hits the mark.

Watch the whole video and let me know in the comments. Is this your type of comedy? Or what is it that makes you laugh?
