Born, raised, and still live in Mississippi, where everybody talks like this...God love 'em. And this skit is so accurate it's scary! I sorta hate to say it - lol - because it reinforces southern stereotypes, but facts are facts, and there's an "aunt" like this in EVERY southern family! Yes, they are in ALL families, but when presented in James' classic, genuine Southern accent it just comes to life. I haven't enjoyed a comedy sketch this much in years! Thank you James Gregory!
Born and raised and still live in Georgia. I played this for my grandmother (Still alive) and I asked “Can I embarrass you”? and she just grinned and said yes and thought it was funny.
@@suttybuddy7273 One of the keys to happiness is to not take yourself so seriously and others. You accept a certain amount of flaws or weaknesses because you love people and you accept yourself.
PROUDLY born & raised in south Alabama...living in Mobile Alabama. My aunt Peggy Jo weighed probably close to 350 lbs & SHE WAS THIS EXACT WONDERFUL OLDER FUN-LOVING WOMAN!!! All of us nieces & nephews loved her...and she was the LIFE of all the family holidays & reunions!!! It's definitely not the same without her now!!! Much love from Mobile Alabama Roll Tide Roll
Sorta of reminded me of myself around 4AM a few days ago, got up to go to the girls room and decided to grab a glass of milk to dunk some chocolate Oreos in, what a mistake! First I’m not really an Oreos fan, I don’t like cookies that might stick in my teeth, crazy I know, but if they are dunked, they aren’t so bad, and then I couldn’t eat just two or three, cause I had all of that milk, so I had to keep dunking, it took forever to get them gone at the same time, and then the heartburn started, but being a martyr, well I guess I am one, cause I lay there hurting till 6 AM, even though I had heartburn meds within reach. But I didn’t die. And the Oreos are gone.
I think I watch this guy because he reminds me so much of my own family… and they have all been gone for a long time. He brings me back to a happier time.
I think he's awesome. He tells stories like he was part of my family. Real life stories are more funny than made up ones. He brings back so many beautiful memories of growing up and family. Love him!!!!
@@recon11b1p6 funny? Nah! Sad,?.yep! It's ok that you find him freaking funny... It just shows that people are different and like different things. I enjoy a more sophisticated type of comic that doesn't have to insult a ton of people to get a laugh.. But that's just me. I don't find that particularly funny. But I can tell that your IQ is about the same level as this comic and that's cool. I'm not prejudice against dumb people.. 😆😂😆😂
This was my aunt and uncle growing up,us kids had to leave the room because we were laughing so hard!!!!I never seen two people go thru so many rolaids🤣🤣🤣🤣Love them and miss them much!!
I live in Oklahoma and have had several relatives just like this. This remind me so much of my wife’s Grandma. I fixed some hot chili one time, that nobody could eat, and she sat there and ate it all. Sweat was pouring off her forehead, she kept eating and would say,”It’s not hot”. We sure miss that old gal.
it's one thing to be a comedian, but if most of your shows are relatively clean comedy with little to no cursing and you can still make the crowd laugh hysterically, your a genius...James is the best
I realize this was 11 years ago, but I just seen it for the first time and I laughed so hard at this, I mean you talk about dead on. I needed this thanks!!!
That was one of the greatest skit I have ever seen!❤ Wow! I was actually picturing a woman doing and saying all this things. Hilarious!😅 Way to go Mr. James Gregory!
James Gregory didn't get the name "Funniest Man In America" by accident...HE EARNED IT!!!! I swear he brought back so many memories of my great family reunions. THANK YOU JAMES!!!!!! Much love from Mobile Alabama
I'm from Mobile also. The first I saw James' comedy my friend Donald sent this particular set to me. I couldn't laugh at it. Was in such Trauma from the fact that a close family member often said many of those almost exact statements....after a few weeks I watched it again, then again in a month. I gradually laughed a bit 3rd 4th viewings
I honestly think...this comedic genius must be related to me. No one in my immediate family weighed under 250 pounds, except me. I grew up in Macon, Ga., and his choice of words and mannerisms is so spot on....it's uncanny. Every comment he makes, is so "Georgia Born", and yet so funny to generic groups who have no connection to the south, he becomes a bridge; drawing people together to laugh at and be entertained by a southern truth, as old as the south itself. Thank you, James, for reminding us all of our heritage....and the things that matter most. God speed!
I opened for James “G” one night in Augusta Ga. I love the conversations I’ve had with this great comedian. Every time I would see James he would be in a awesome sports car.
No one can bring the past to life like James Gregory. Most of my wonderful family has passed on, but I am crying from laughter and the memories of those members... Thank you so much brother.
This brought to back such great memories of seeing James Gregory live multiple times when I was stationed, and lived in SC. We laughed so hard our faces hurt. And walked around saying “it could be a law? I don’t know” for days!
Living in the South and having lived in the South as a kid, I can appreciate a lot the good things ... and one of them is good comedy. This is funny and spot on.
I fit the person he's describing quite well, but I have been getting better. I want to live longe enough to have kids and grandkids, after all. I was worried he'd keel over as well.
Thank RU-vid for preserving some comedian clips for latter-day viewing. Gregory's spoofs and descriptions are worthwhile viewing - no cursing, no ad hominem attacks, and no PC. Thanks James! You're one of a few who know humor is elicited from the audience's imagination.
In my family after big meals you not only see this but half the living room having their heads leaned over on the sofa taking a nap after the meal LOL. I used to laugh at that when I was a kid and going out to play after eating.....now I'm one of them on the sofa sleeping LOL
Man this is exactly what happens every year at my grandmother's house all my uncles passed out in recliners now I'm 30 and I feel a nap coming on this Thanksgiving
There's a chemical in turkey called tryptophan. that makes it a common sight to find everyone passed out. in the living room after Thanksgiving dinner. however it usually has less effect on children.
Yes I have an aunt that says the same thing she displays all of what he is describing and when I read your comment I about died laughing cuz I haven't gotten to that part yet. My dad lives with her and says that she's already talking about what's for dinner right after n during whole time she's complaining about how stuffed she is.
I seen you in Chattanooga TN once took my kids. My son wet his pants laughing at you. We we're down front and you really picked on us. you had me laughing so hard I was snorting like an old pig. I couldn't breathe. it was funny
Lol... Yep, my Great Grandmother. We were usually at her house so she'd say to leave the dishes and she'd do them later, but we cleaned the kitchen anyway. Full of strength and integrity, but this skit was still hilariously familiar and I thank you 😊♥️
Just got done seeing him for my 17th Birthday, he was hilarious. My Dad got up with him some how and told him it was my Birthday without me knowing, so he surprised me by getting me to go up on stage and wishing me a Happy Birthday. He also gave me a signed t-shirt, it was awesome. Very nice and funny man, I highly recommend going to see him.
I have one of his CD's. I just now clicked up on his videos here and I think he is absolutely hilarious!!!! Mr. Gregory you now have a new subscriber. Well done sir!
We saw him at the Andy Griffith playhouse in Mt. Airy in October. He was hilarious. It has been a long time since I have laughed that hard for that long. Great entertainer!
The first time I saw James Gregory was at an A T&T Dinner and Corporate event several years ago at the StarDome in Birmingham, Alabama and he was hilarious 😂. I thoroughly enjoyed him. He had me in tears from start to finish.
I saw you do this for the first time in Tifton Georgia. I cried with laughter. You have an awesome view on many subjects. Thanks for sharing and God bless.
