#Put your dick in that box how to

I think the short 'i' sound in 'dick' gives the same jaunty effect that works for light, mainstream comedy. Maybe it's like what George Carlin said about 'tits' in his Seven Words routine. Sam Kinnison, The Aristocrats, and a hell of a lot of other raw comedy just doesn't work with 'dick'. That said, 'cock' is my epithet of choice in a lot of situations. Thus, the net humour was greater for getting the uncensored version put out there. I don't think they would have done so if the word had been 'cock'. Teece, NBC has put the uncensored version (with 'dick') up on YouTube. Posted by StopMakingSense at 10:00 PM on Decem

#Put your dick in that box how to

You just have to know how to use them and while putting them in a box is funny for a minute, I don't know that it's funny for three.īut, you know, I sort of need to unclench and your favorite sketch comedy show sucks and all that. I don't mean to rain on the dick joke parade. For that matter, any comedy show that allows celebrities to 'make fun of themselves' (control their image) is inevitably toothless. Now listen to them say unusual, unexpected things and oh, hey, look how expensive our sets are!' Paris Hilton's (or whoever's) existence isn't the joke, just the mannerisms. 'Here is a character you recognize from shows more popular than ours. They use pop culture references as a way to a) seem relevent and b) communicate jokes to people in a recognizable form. They don't take a stance, they don't have anything challenging, comedically, to say and they offer nothing but loving, gentle Pillsbury Doughboy pokes at current cultural trends. This is, by and large, the problem with all SNL sketches.

It's easy to look back now and make fun of it now, but to what end? 'Boy that music back then sounds funny? Didn't we all dress weird?' At this point, it's not satire - it's homage. Show did it in the 90s and when SNL does it now is that groups like Color Me Badd and Boyz II Men were the pop cultural norm and if not taken seriously, they were at least enormously successful - basically, waiting to be skewered.
