Rory Scovel - What is a Factoid? - 2018

[@RhiFoxx]

Rory Scovel looks like that cool substitute teacher, that tells you what the real world is like

[@7elEvan1]

Then you find out he slept with a student

[@MrSF247]

I rarely laugh as hard as I do when listening to Rory. One of my favorite comedians! Every time I see that day moon, I'm reminded of Rory. Sun's on deck!

[@xequshin]

PAL

[@Chad-xs2de]

"YOU DON'T SEE THE SUN COMING OUT AT NIGHT, DO YA?"

[@soth1sol]

he was on pete holmes show doing the moon's out during day bit bc pete liked it so much. one of those forced "do the thing that i like again, for me, right now!" things, but rory rolls with situations like no other so it was entertaining as he barrelled through the jokes on command.

[@bkj43]

Absolutely brilliant comedy. And just off the top of his head, too! Favorite comedian at the moment.

[@StevenChristopherTV]

Bro is just like consistently funny. Def one of the quiet front runners these days.

[@HarrisAlterman]

"It's like a fact, but small." Rory you da king.

[@oregonsnob31]

I dig this dude. Watched all the stuff I can of his. He had me with, “ANSWER ME!!!” After the pause asking audience if they ever have to use bathroom at grocery story. He is unlike any other.

[@ManateeMentality]

That is one of his all-time great moments. It's from his stand-up set on Conan 9/3/13.

[@Eris-_]

@@ManateeMentality So you're at the point where fandom becomes creepy. Pull it back a bit.

[@Chad-xs2de]

I've never seen another comedian with the ability to yell at the audience in a nice way. He's brilliant.

[@revocation3x]

improvised standup, seriously in a league of his own

[@Hard2heart2heart]

Hey Rory, love your crowd work. Thanks for posting. Can't wait for your next video! Your fan -hard2heart2heart

[@craybil]

Rory wins my heart.

[@pacewhit]

I'm so lucky I live 40-250 minutes from the comedy store, depending on the time of day. now i just need to be lucky enough to be there when you show up.

[@Sebshappytrees]

Very underrated comedian.

[@justincoleman3805]

Not really. Everyone who has seen him loves him.

[@Eris-_]

@@justincoleman3805 You are completely insane and/or ignorant to make that statement.

[@jessemalloch331]

Rory, you're fckn Killin it dood

[@LeeCDylan]

Oh snap came right here from Rory's appearance on Ron Funches' podcast! Also you can hear the hesitation in that dude's voice describing what he does because he knows Rory is really going to run with lol

[@Eris-_]

Probably because he knows in his heart what a bullshit job he works.

[@chrisbatman8619]

I love your stuff man keep it comin! You’re timing is perfect! If you have a podcast let us know we all want to see it and if not start one!

[@Chad-xs2de]

He does - it's Pen Pals pod. #GrowTheShow

[@abgeordnete]

The original meaning of 'factoid', when it was coined in 1973, was a "fact which has no existence before appearing in a magazine or newspaper, a creation which is not so much a lie as a product to manipulate emotion in the Silent Majority". It was formed from fact + oid ('similar, but not the same', as in 'humanoid').

[@ckillgore]

@@超虎生活 the word trivia come from the Latin tri via, meaning three roads. It's called trivia because in ancient Rome whenever you crossed paths with a person at the intersection of three roads, you would pull out your phone and show them a factoid off buzzfeed.

[@ci95w]

Imagine that guy use this as an answer.

[@chauncieextreme8514]

aren’t you one google-smart wonder boy w too much time (more than me, and that’s a lot)

Rory is my favorite japanese comedian.

[@davidwinn8269]

What about Diane? Is Diane coming?

[@irishronin6156]

Yayyyy! Invite Rory to play the piano. He’s very good 👍 😊

[@jonbovimalkovich1474]

CROWD WORK

[@FixItScotty]

Rory has said on multiple occasions that he does the same material with a different accent (southern or German) because he's too lazy to write new material. The clips from this show clearly demonstrate that he can absolutely KILL with no material.

[@Eris-_]

That's called a joke.

[@shirokovko]

Почему так мало просмотров? Рори очень крут! Ждем в России!

[@speakatron5634]

It's an item of unreliable information that is reported and repeated so often that it becomes accepted as fact, even though it isn't. But really, it's just about moving Food & Bev.

[@nasergamih3120]

What I learned is that a FACT is a FACTOID's Voltrone 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@EhCloserLook]

Of all the people to ask what they do for a living Rory gets the photoshopping-Dragonball-Z-factoids guy. What luck! 🍀

Scott moran, your name, is scott moran.

[@OfficialRoryScovel]

Yes, it is. -Scott

[@eddiebarry4199]

Hell ya! Keep up the good work Scott.

[@eddiebarry4199]

Official Rory Scovel also loved your blurb on office hours podcast with tim heidecker

[@jordananderson8829]

If anyone was curious like me, factoid is a real word defined in the dictionary. Still a dumb word though www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/factoid

[@Eris-_]

Dumb how? If you can actually defend your argument, I'll concede. But you can't so I won't. :oD

[@frostychickenprods]

I’m factoid intolerant

[@justincoleman3805]

Skim fact

[@BillyRamirez]

He's so funny it pisses me off.

[@justincoleman3805]

Usually people just laugh.

[@danjwalker]

Factoid - n. A piece of unverified or inaccurate information that is presented in the press as factual, often as part of a publicity effort, and that is then accepted as true because of frequent repetition. n. A brief, somewhat interesting fact. n. An inaccurate statement or statistic believed to be true because of broad repetition, especially if cited in the media.

[@justincoleman3805]

Gee. Thanks. No one else here has google.

[@danjwalker]

@@justincoleman3805 Cunt - noun Slang: Vulgar. the vulva or vagina. Extremely Disparaging and Offensive. a contemptuous term used to refer to a woman. a term used to refer to a contemptible person. sexual intercourse with a woman.

[@justincoleman3805]

I don’t think cunt means intercourse. That’s a weird thing to say.

[@NotHeresrsly]

So the guy in the audience is so much Worse than I imagined?

@@justincoleman3805 And yet so many people fail to use it fucking constantly.

So, he gets paid, to Photoshop factoids onto anime? Like real money?

[@usernamesareforidiot]

I work with social media managers. Yep, real job. Nope, you definitely don't want it unless you want to look at and respond to the nonsense from the general public.

@@usernamesareforidiot isn't that what were are all doing right now?

Nope. Shit money. It's basically a low-end customer service job.

Isn't that a factette? I'll see myself out.
