Gilbert Gottfried Tells The Aristocrats Joke, and it’s hilarious.

in craziest shit ever, fnord, funniest shit ever, humor

This isn’t so much about the joke, Youdopia. I’m not one for acausal scatalogy. It’s not because love Gilbert Gottfried so much, that I want to make an effigy out of papier maché and sodomize it. It’s because when someone is in the Zone, they’re channeling the zeitgeist (at least) or an Archetype. What I love about this clip, aside from the fact that I just stumbled upon it, is that the comedians who are talking about Gilbert’s perfect joke, are serious. They’re talking about a magic moment, like Jimmy Page’s outro solo on Ten Years Gone on 7/24/79 in Copenhagen, and it’s wonderful.  Slate wrote about this performance because, it is truly the Funniest Shit Ever.
