I question that. You're either funny, or you're not.

Some people create the illusion that they're funny, like Rove McManus and Peter Helliar, and believe that they are, while people like Andrew Denton are actually entertaining without believing their own bullspit.

You also need to be original. That's why I have Seinfeld on permanent cycle on my DVD player...

C'mon peoples . i suppose if we called it an xr8 , we could have it for GS less 5K FPV less 3K . but it would never retain FPV GS status .
so it is a unique supercharged V8 SC FPV GS , sub 60k with real 300^^^kws. game over , ardious auriviour
