This story should be a lesson to kids. The guy who tried his best to be cool, but got picked on by the cool kids, is now ripped and making millions of dollars in a major Marvel movie.
Nah. I never saw people as cool vs uncool. I always did saw them as good people vs bad people. The fact that people actually ever gave a crap about "cool" will always remain weird to me.
I was the poor guy in an elite highschool, but I came from a village, so the city kids looked like dumbass children in my eyes. At 14 I already had experience in slaughtering animals, I worked on a tractor, I drove cars, I was in bar fights, shot guns, had sex with older girls, and made money by selling stolen scrap metal from a military base, and smuggling petrol across the border, the usual stuff in the early '90s Eastern Europe. The coolest thing the cool city kids were doing was smoking behind the gym, but I didnt care about that, I thought it was ridiculous.I became insta-cool when I beat up a bully who was a foot taller than me, and I was the only one that knew how to start a fire and grill meat, so I was the man at lakeside parties.
Holy shit I just remembered. When I was kid we Called one of our friends egg nog because if you said gay backwards that’s what it kinda sorta sounded like. Kids can be so cruel.
When there is a pro to get the soundboard properly adjusted, this technique gives the performer more control is using the dynamics of his voice. In the old days, you’d see performers put their thumb on the mic, then rest the thumb on their chin. You can’t do this for karaoke...the soundboard has to be tuned for the specific performer.
1q3er5 I fucking hate, Spitters. Grown men that think they're on a baseball field or some shit. It's fucking gross and it's habitual for these people. I see spit all over the ground when I'm pumping gas. It's nasty. I used to be a spitter because I played baseball and that behavior leaks over to non-baseball life. I realized how gross and bullshit it was to do, so I stopped...because I'm mature.
@@AndyDuphresne Common, cut him some slack. He was kinda put on the spot when Kumail asked him that. Maybe he's just not too creative and said the first thing that came to his mind, because it was literally what Kumail started the story with.
Love to see a Pakistani doing so great comedy in America. You're very original and it's awesome to see that a lot of your comedy stems from the life you lived in Pakistan. Well done bro, Keep it up!!!!
I can relate to this. There are so many assholes that make fun of other people to look cool in front of the popular kids, but when it's just me and them, they are a lot nicer to me.
Benjamin Verheijden This guy. Attacking the people who are criticizing Kumal's bit is an ad hominem. Just because you've never done something doesn't mean you can't critique it. I'd wager that the majority of movie critics have never made a movie themselves- that doesn't make their complaints any less valid.
“You know those people who come back from somewhere and they become hot like they stepped in the captain America machine?” Yeah Kumail we do know those people 👀
Somewhere in the world his "cool" schoolmates must be thinking that this guy that they egged is now in the Marvel's eternals. So basically it doesn't matter if you're cool in school, you can get cooler way after that.
If you guys liked Kumail, you'll enjoy my standup comedy ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-sRcE0RLdAoA.html I'm new to the game but very welcoming to any and all critique to improve myself. It's free laughs, check it out!!
I wasn't a cool kid, but I was never thrown eggs. I was just the guy that stood on the sidelines and did nothing. In a way I still am, going about life minding my own business. Not cool enough to be cool, not nerdy enough to be bullied.... just another egocentric nobody this world has plenty of. What am I doing with my life. RU-vid got real.
Wht would anyone get angry? His liberal use of the word heck...lmao. Kids these days are pussies I used to get bullied on by real bullies, i didn't have to start a fight on a message board. We're talking real violence you don't have to have Wifi to get.
I'm Jamaican and I LOVEEEEE that song. Major hit out here, to this day. I think it's awesome that we can influence music all over the world. Most of us don't see it as appropriation, as long as you call it by it's name (reggae or dancehall). It's also nice if you mention us 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
This guy, right here, is the best part of Adventure Time, Parks and Rec and Assassin's Creed: Black Flag; love his voice and love his comedy stylings. So good.
Nigeman He was the sassy tech guy working for Abstergo who would lead you through the missions while outside the Animus in Black Flag. Very weird casting, but it fits.
Broad City, too. He's wearing a dorky helmet and thinks he's cool as if he's doing the Amazing Race. Hilarious bit. Also fantastic on Silicon Valley as a regular character.
HupfDole87 Real quick just to say. Fuck you cause your profile picture, made me think there was a spider on my computer. XD sorry to waste your time with this. Have a good day.
It ain't exactly your "floor the audience" performance, but it's based on an actual life story. For authenticity he gets a W. not everything needs to be made up by comedians. Look at Kevin Hart for example, claims "Real Story I swear, my daughter crawled out of the backseat of the car with a shotgun and points it at me.." Those over-the-top fake ass deliveries, inlcuding him annoyingly claiming it happened as a true story can make the audience turned off after a while. Atleast Kumail keeps it real.
Most important thing I learned in life. No matter how you try to mask and mimic others, you will never be good enough and it's so much better when you just accept, move on, and learn to love yourself (or at least not actively try to pretend to be someone else). Some people just aren't cut out to fit in.
that's a massive coincidence considering he also makes bubbles in madison! noisey.vice.com/en_uk/blog/the-guy-who-produced-snows-informer-now-makes-bubbles-in-madison-square-park
