Next time someone tells me Chris Redfield's Resident Evil 5 gains are unrealistic and impossible, I'm going to show them clips from your old gigs. (Sincerely, I'm struggling to move from Machinist Bale just a few steps toward Batman Bale, and I'm so glad you figured out what it takes to get your body where it is now.)

[@nacoran]

Small is relative. I'm from SmAlbany, which is small compared to NYC, but big compared to Gouverneur. My mom lives in a place called Charleston-Four Corners, but her mailing address is Sprakers. She didn't even know where the post office was. When we found it we found out it was on someone's converted front porch. The post office was a front porch.

[@christinecannibal844]

"orange text chick" LMFAO

[@WonkaBiz]

Who does she think she is speaking in orange anyway.

[@edwardfletcher7790]

I'm just surprised she didn't ask for the manager. There was real beauty in the way Steve totally ignored her.

[@silverpixie101]

The woman was so infuriating. She just kept trying to take over the conversation because she thought she was more important than everyone else.

[@dyent]

To be fair, "did you write your book" is a fair question, a lot of people in the entertainment industry use ghost writers.

[@F_the_G]

Totally. That's aboultely common. Sometimes you write it and someone else edits it.

[@GameHammerCG]

That woman who said “I’m speaking now” would have irked me. I’d have gone for a heckler put down on her. Well done on staying composed there.

[@zg4705]

honestly.

[@The7DirtyWords]

She 100% just watched a highlight of the VP debate and wanted to be Kamala 😂😂

[@jetsrule07748]

Sounds like the pocketknife guy was her husband and she was trying to shut him up rather than screw with Steve

[@The7DirtyWords]

@Sam0193 thats called a debate....the goal for all political debates is to give your opponent as little time to respond as possible but okay lol so youre telling me Kamala cant handle a debate...thats not good

[@archer5915]

@@The7DirtyWords The purpose of the presidential and vp debates is not to speak more because candidates are given equal allotted time to speak. The purpose of any debate is to establish the platforms of both sides so the audience can decide for themselves. By interrupting, Pence was both breaking the established rules of the debate AND being a huge fucking asshole.

Florida man: who has a pocketknife? Clearly it was Col. Mustard in the Billiard Room.

Hi, Steve. Your cancer buddy here. I just wanted to say that I love it when you tag a new-ish video with some of your older work. It's really fun to see the comparison between then and now. Incidentally, you were just as awesome then as you are now!

[@chrisshirley4877]

@Ba d Neighbour Not at all. I genuinely enjoy his early work. It's a different kind of edge than he has now and I find them both hilarious.

[@chrisshirley4877]

@Sam0193 Hi, Sam. I'm afraid that part is not a joke. I am a terminal cancer patient. Steve and I have been communicating for a little over a year now, so he knows me by my name now, but when we first started communicating I gave myself the moniker "your cancer buddy" to differentiate me from his other jillions of fans. It sort of stuck.

When (if) I retire, I'm think I'm going to become a comedian groupie and follow the tour around the country, because even if the jokes are the same, the crowd is different and that changes the show. Steve, if you're still doing standup in 30 years, I might be around! 😂🤣

[@firstnamelastname9955]

@@cherylross5554 He was probably just curious and trying to "size up" outta-towners in the same way that he might be curious what kind of car they drive, or what brand of _______ they use. Maybe the guy who asked the question is just really interested in pocketknives or collects them and so he pigeonholes in into discussions whenever he can... - that's my best guess.
