Which reminds me of Lenny Bruce:


"OK, l'd like to ask you all a few questions now, OK?

And you're all under oath, all of you. Even standing room only.

(laughter)

How many people in this club here tonight have ever used that word...

blah-blah-blah?

Don't be shy, you can raise your hands. Well, that's cool.

Now let's get really honest. You, sir, have you ever had your blah blahed?

Hm? lt's either yes or no. There's no two ways about it!

OK, how many men in this room have ever had their blah blahed?

Raise your hands.

Oh, come on, officers. Now you're under oath.

All right, keep your hands raised. How many men in this room

have ever blahed a blah? Phew, man. Somebody's not telling the truth.

OK, ma'am, tell me, have you ever blahed a blah?

The officers couldn't see it, but she went like this, and he went like this.

This time the whole audience gets schlepped away, right?

This is the dirtiest show l've ever done in my life!

This is really filth!

Now if there is anyone who has not found this obscene, you're full of
blah, and l hope you never get your blah blahed again! That's my show.

Thank you and good night!"
