    I love this...I've done a lot of shows, and have been both cast and creative team and you know what, this is funny, basically because it's true. "Tell me a story, but I don't want to know', "It's very specific", and I love the associate speaking his subtext. This is brilliant. I love improv, and did a year at Second City in Toronto.
