    Go ahead. After reading it this actually seems like a pretty logical conclusion.

    Can someone explain redneck culture to me? I see it and hear it, but as far as I know all you need is an appreciation for shitty beer and plaid to qualify...

    And that god awful accent which makes your sentences unintelligible.

    Pretty much lacking in any sense of tact, etiquette or sophistication.

    No plaid?

    He isn't a very good comic without the act.

    You mean he's not a very good comic if you take away the stand-up routine that he created and now performs?


    Whoops.

    No, I meant I doubt he would done very well had he not invented the character. Which I base off of what I've seen of his earlier stuff, i.e. this.

    OK, but it seems kind of obvious that if you take ANY comic's really early work, they're not gonna be very good. Look at Seinfeld's early work; it's the same stage persona that we've all seen, just it's not as refined and it's delivered with less skill and confidence.

    It seems unfair to go "he's not good without his character" because his character is his own creation. His character is an integral part of what he has created and used to make his act work. He built that character specifically for this reason.

    I...what?

    That's not what I said, I don't think.


    What I seem to be failing at saying is that the character works for him, and that's why he uses it.

    I was trying to answer a question Keith asked, but then when I looked through the thread I realized I was linking to the same video he did earlier.

    I doubt anyone would take it that far, but the fact that he fakes his accent, and his name isn't even larry, it's a little weird.

    His middle name is Lawrence.

    Doesn't matter, it's a stage name.
