    Actually it's a Craig Ferguson classic, that's where I 'borrowed" it from.

    In his standup act he opens up with the gag except the punch line, that closes his show with it (punch line included this time)

    Highly effective.

    Ferguson is the most underrated comic maybe of all time.

    Wait a minute Tony Soprano said that joke in the early 2000’s around 2001-2002. Craig’s Fergusons show was created after that.

    Ferguson was doing Drew Carey's show for a decade from like 1995.
    Standup before that.

    Drew Carey gets credit for 'discovering him.





    My favorite interview.

    ^
    Don't, because I'm not positive Ferguson 'borrowed' that gag from someone else.
    I'm a gigantic fan of stand up and such, but it's 'believed' to be Craig's joke, doesn't make it so, but he gets the credit anyway.

    It’s not about the ability to buy what you want, it’s about the joy of giving. Making someone you care about happy.

    My point is receiving material items isn't really going to make most adults happy, especially when most adults have all they need and many gifts are just wasted because we're all just guessing what someone else may want or need, especially because if they really wanted it or needed it, they probably already have it. The overly commercialized aspect of the holiday is undeniable. Spending time with family is great, giving to the poor is wonderful, spoiling kids is fine, adults with means exchanging gifts is silly and wasteful in my opinion, but to each his own. Merry Christmas.

    I agree with everything you've stated Foxx. I think you and I (maybe a few others) are realistic about how commercialized Christmas has become.

    I always have to remember (and wife continually mentions it), the key is to consider it a time for getting family together and give thanks for being alive with those you love. The commercial part is just extra stuff that comes with the good parts. Kind of like cranberry sauce or rolls that come with the Turkey at X-mas dinner.


    I think Jibby/Nasher were mentioning this in other posts.
