Thread: Why do I find Neil Hamburger funny? Is there something wrong with me?

Neil Hamburger is an American comedian and stand-up. He shouldn't be as funny as he is. I wonder if there is something wrong with me. His entire stand-up routine consists of telling Question-Answer jokes, saying absurd things, insulting the audience and cleaning his throat, never smiling. Hilarious.

Here is a great segment when he appeared on Red Eye:

Here's him on stage for 3 minutes without telling a joke:

Here's a hilarious highlights clip from his show "Poolside Chats".

Is there something wrong with me? Does anyone else find this funny? I prefer this kind of comedy to the kind of low-life comedy where I can tell the punchline before they finished the build-up, which is, quite frankly, the case in a lot of acts. I'm tired to death of jokes about gender differences and the nature of politics. Neil rules.

That sounds like the kind of humour I'd like.
