    I love how freaking funny this pale fellow is without having to resort to being crude or dropping the F bomb every other word. I know it's a bit of a cliche at this point to say that cleaner humor is more difficult to write, pull off, and make funny, so the people that are able to accomplish all that are the true comedic masters, but what can I say, it's so true! And don't get me wrong I love me some dark/edgy humor that's intelligent and well done but in my mind it's still never quite on the same level as these comedians who mange to be genuinely funny without needing to shock. So, kudos to you, Mr. Gaffigan, wherever you are and thank you for the copious amounts of laughs I've gotten from watching all your stand-up specials!!!

      Jim Gaffigan is very funny indeed, but frankly only idiots laugh at hearing cuss words. If a comedian is intelligent and amusing, it doesn't matter what language s/he uses -- I'll laugh at the jokes, not at the swearing, and I don't understand people who laugh simply because someone on stage uses four-letter words. That said, while I don't mind salty language, using lots of expletives for no good reason can quickly become tiresome, so yes, it's refreshing to listen to comedy that's appropriate for all audiences.

      When I lived in Taiwan from 2009-2011, I would always talk to foreigners when I saw them. When I returned from 2015-2017, people just always wanted to be on their phones and it seemed like foreigners were a lot more common, in Taipei at least.
      The expansion of the MRT over those 8 years (2009-2017) was astounding. Went from 50 or 60 total stops to well over 100.

    I was stationed in Japan in the 80s. One afternoon I decided to go exploring even tho I had the beginnings of a cold. I thought that I had more than enough KLEENEX with me but on my way home I realized my runny nose was running much more than I anticipated. I stopped in a little shop that I could see sold paper products exclusively. (At least back then many shops in smaller cities were selling 1 type of product.) I tried desperately to get across the idea that I wanted to purchase some KLEENEX, but was getting nowhere. I actually thought of just leaving the shop and trying to find somewhere else, but for some reason I thought to do that would be a slap in the face to the shop owner.
    It wasn't until someone realized that I wanted to buy tissues, that we got anywhere.
    Looking back, I think that I must have come across as an alien from outer space or as an animal that had escaped from a zoo wearing human clothes.
