Comedy Top 7 on W♥M in 2007! This is a special two-for-one Comedy and Christmas post, meaning funny-man Weird Al Yankovic is not only hilarious, but he's written a few original Christmas songs: "Christmas at Ground Zero" and "The Night Santa Went Crazy".

"Christmas at Ground Zero" is basically Christmas carol, whose title parodies Fishbone's "Party At Ground Zero". The second is a pretty dark song about how Santa went postal and killed everyone. Apparently there is an "Extra Gory" version on the single for Amish Paradise.

So, I was actually on his official website and he seems kind of bitter/funny. He received permission to recorded a parody "You're Beautiful" from James Blunt, but his record label, Atlantic Records, refused permission. So what does Weird Al do? He gives away the song:

Truly, the worst stand-up in the world, Neil Hamburger, a has-been comedian that should've retired 15 years ago.

His jokes are intentionally off-timing, he spills his liquor all over, and he constantly coughs and clears his throat! But I guess that's part of the charm.

Mark brought over his DVD, "The World's Funnyman" (2006), and we watched a little bit of this. The best special feature I've ever seen, hands down, is the "FBI Warning" (that's basically a 30 seconds on screen FBI Warning, it's lifted from a poor VHS quality).

There's other features too, including this music video for "7-11's Are All the Same"... which is what I've included in this post.

Sadly, there are no 7-11 in the mid-west :(

Bonus: If you want to a preview of what Hamburger is like, head over to The Tom Green Channel. If you download the show (which is available on the website), Hamburger would describe you as "a free loader". Heheh.

His Poolside Chats are so awesome. He also had a few horribly great scenes in the latest episode of Tim and Eric's Awesome Show, Great Job!

oh man, I've seen this guy before! I think he was vamping between sets when I saw the Black Heart Procession. it was really weird and I didn't think he was funny at all. I do remember him clearing his throat a lot...
