Anyone seen this stand-up with cerabral palsi?
I was expecting a cringeworthy clip with sympathy laughs, but he's actually quite funny.

Check it:

I think it was a sympathy "standing ovation", although it is pretty impressive that he's got the balls to do stand-up.

+ he reminds me of screech.

Edit: Haha, this is just insane. Chck out the cerabral palsi high five attempt.: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U0pdmqdb5Uc&feature=related

*Puts on critic hat*

Well, on the plus side, he did very well. Especially considering that the average person would literally rather slide into a bathtub full of leeches than try and perform stand up comedy (myself included). Hats off to the guy on basic priciple.

But don't bother if you're just gonna get up there and make a few predictable, hacky jokes about your disability. People aren't going to look forward to seeing your name on a comedy club ticket if all they're gonna get is a few laughs which had better come naturally... I mean, you have to laugh, otherwise you're an asshole. That's one stand up comedian who never has to deal with vicious hecklers, I bet.

Ah.

Haha, not bad.

Crip:"I'm not drunk, I have cerebral palsy."

Cop:"Pretty big word for a drunk guy"

Crip:"I was in there for seven days!"
