DepressperadoI just wanted to see you laughingin the pizza rainRegistered Userregular
any sliver of improv talent I could lay claim to is purely the work of the unhealthy amount of time I spent watching old episodes of Whose Line on Comedy Central.
I got to see him do standup once back in like 2005, it was masterful, and like unique to our town? like he put effort in finding out a shit ton of local anecdata and was just straight burning us hard and personally, it was great.

I saw him do stand up near his hometown (which is near where I was going to school at the time) when he was home for Christmas. He was pretty clearly trying out new material, and I thought I had a witty heckler comeback to some line he said, but in my one moment of wisdom, I thought No, this man will destroy you and leave nothing left; keep your mouth shut.
Which I did, and wish I could be that wise in the rest of my life.
I don't have a Proops specific story, but Colin and Brad came to anchorage and did effectively a two man WLIIA routine.
They were amazing. So many great skits.
There was one where they needed someone for the audience who had a weird job. People were raising their hands and Brad would ask what they did and get some info. This one lady raised her hand.
Brad: So what do you do?
Lady: I milk salmon for fertilization.
Brad: Get up here.
Or one where Colin left the room and Brad basically had us all madlib the details of a crime. When Colin came back in, he was the criminal being interrogated by Brad and had to guess what we had madlibbed.
When asked for a local town with a strange name where the crime took place, we went with Tatitlek (Tah-tit-lick would be the anglicized pronounciation). So they're doing the interrogation, and Brad is trying to feed Colin clued about the location. Finally, Colin thinks he has it. So he says "Ta...." and there's a pause. In this pause the entire audience draws in a breath, it is audible, cause holy shit he actually got it! And then
He says "Tatitsucker!" Absolute pandemonium.
I legit lost my voice laughing at that show. Best fucking event I've ever been to.
I watched a show on some streaming service where Brad and Colin did a bit where they hung mousetraps all over the stage and put mousetraps on the floor, and Colin had to navigate the maze of mousetraps blindfolded all while trying to stay in scene with Brad doing weird echolocation jokes to guide him through.

I'm Proops neutral
I am glad to see it is neither of those, and is instead just normal SE++ weird shit.
My heart rate can go back to normal
it's personal conversations from twitter or discord leaking back into the forums

"A thread on the internet made me think Greg Proops was dead
I clicked on it and as it loaded, my heart was filled with dread..."

No that's the Pope
Do you think nihilists have really low self-esteem?
You know, because they don't believe in themselves?
