patton vs. alcohol vs. zach vs. patton is funny but almost painful to listen to. patton's pretty fucking drunk and keeps coming on to a woman in the audience, zach is basically heckling him from the piano. i was laughing and cringing at the same time.

The bit about KFC's bowls on Patton's new album is pure gold.

Patton is the tits. I finally saw The Comedians of Comedy not too long ago and lol'd hard. All I ever really knew him for was being the schlubby dude on that sitcom. Well, one of the schlubby dudes on that sitcom. I hope he gets rich and famous.
The Robert Evans/ Diane Keaton's apple juice-soaked pussy bit is gold. And while I could go the rest of my life and not hear another nerdy comic talk about star wars and be ok, his Nick Nolte as Han Solo bit was pretty funny, too - "Goooodddammit Chewbacca go fix the goddamned hyperdrive... ahhh hell."

i watched the newest patton standup thing and he's still so stiff and still overwrites every joke to death. he has to pause in the middle of his adjective stuffed, eleborate metaphors at a random place over and over because the audience is laughing and it still seems like it hasn't occurred to him that it would happen-that he's doing a live performance and not just reading jokes in a recording booth. maybe some sort of staged in-studio thing like "don rickles speaks!" would be more suited to him.

"Social justice" as practiced on social media is merely a decadent culture's substitute for actual struggle. It does not go far enough. Reactionary speech must be met with force. Shame alone does not overthrow the old order. Correct ideas need weapons and bodies.

― the general theme of STUFF (cryptosicko), Tuesday, 19 September 2017 02:53 (eight years ago)
The new standup special is both hilarious and devastating. I'd read enough recent interviews with him that I already knew the stories of how he dealt with the immediate aftermath of his wife's death, but I still feel like I must have held my breath during the entire stretch where he talks about breaking the news to his daughter (which he somehow manages to conclude with an amazing bit of comedy).
― iCloudius (cryptosicko), Wednesday, 18 October 2017 22:48 (eight years ago)
i will definitely watch this ... one day. going through a real rough patch in my marriage and i don't think i want to cry my eyes out watching him telling the story of that day ;_;
― -_- (jim in vancouver), Wednesday, 18 October 2017 23:13 (eight years ago)
i watched it last night. the stuff about michelle mcnamara is predictably devastating and i had tears in my eyes for much of it but the bit he closes on (about SPOILER??? the old polish woman jumping out to spoil every holiday for his daughter) was hilarious. that he was able to transmute trauma into comedy is really amazing on so many levels and despite some of the unevenness of some of the other material i have a whole new respect for him after watching Annihilation.
― Mordy, Friday, 20 October 2017 16:55 (eight years ago)
I tried to watch the new one but honestly I got bored after half an hour and no laughs and turned it off. He's likable but I just don't find his schtick/delivery funny, I guess. He's not particularly good at storytelling or characters or conceptual stuff or one-liners or any of the things I generally want from comedy, it's just a lot of observational commentary that doesn't grab me.
― Οὖτις, Monday, 23 October 2017 18:24 (eight years ago)
You should probably see at least a few minutes of when he gets to the tough stuff (immediately following the deliberately banal crowd-work section)

So nice of Patton to name his latest special after our little board.
Anyway, its typically funny, even if the material is not his best. His gifts for storytelling and delivery are possibly the best in the business, though.
― A White, White Gay (cryptosicko), Wednesday, 20 May 2020 19:47 (six years ago)
