Jerry Seinfeld

My favorite stand up comedian/actor is Jerry Seinfeld. If you have ever seen his show you find yourself always laughing but you always ask “what is this show about?” In reality his shows aren’t about anything really other than what people encounter in everyday life. In this skit Jerry opens up with him walking around the airport and he buys a sandwich and everyone knows that the food in airports are overpriced but he says “I wonder if the people selling the sandwiches really know how much their selling them for or are they just selling them to sell them?” Then he moves on to where he is sitting on a plane and he is talking about when the pilot of the plane comes over the intercom system explaining the flight and the altitude. When I’m sitting on a plane I always notice that the pilot never seems excited he always seems very monotone, tired, and doesn’t really want to be on that flight. Also, he explains what he is going to do like the passengers actually care but in truth all they care about is that they get to their destination in a safe ordinary fashion. Then Seinfeld says “it is not like I go up to his cockpit and tell him what I’m doing and bothering him.” I think Jerry Seinfeld’s comedy is hilarious because every joke he has is something that you have encountered and you find funny. Also, he has a conversation with himself as if he’s the other person like in the case he is the pilot and changes his voice so its monotone and not very excited. Unlike Katt Williams and Dave Chapelle he is cleaner with his skit which I like more but having the cuss words every now and then is funny but not every other word that comes out.
