A waste of time and money, assuming you're not lying. I know you wouldn't do that, would you user?

I'm not lying.

*Sniffs*

The same things you've already seen on youtube. You can't expect standup comedians to have new material for every gig.

>lying

The man does more gigs than the Stones, it isn't hard to see him

How do I know you're not lying.

Ask him to come to Veeky Forums

>I tried to look at that page but saw only inane comments

Now coke is warm, commodity is turning into shit

I have friends now, but they think I'm slovenian and they call me Zizek. What can I do Veeky Forums?

Then I will see you there, my man

Funny

I had a dream last night that Zizek passed me by on the street somewhere near my house and I asked him if he was Zizek and he said yes and for some reason he followed me home and laid down on the floor and become unresponsive and wouldn't leave.

i saw him a couple weeks ago at UCLA. if seating is limited get there at least 15 minutes early, lots of people got turned away and were banging on the door the whole lecture.
The lecture itself is pretty neat. He mostly just straight up reads while seated, with some anecdotes interspersed throughout where he looks up and gives the classic zizek delivery. I probably understood only half of what he said because it gets pretty complex, but he then ties it back together with an anecdote before moving on to his next point which is usually barely connected to his other points (he's all over the place). I wish I'd taken basic outline notes because it's pretty dense and when I stopped to think about a concept I'd miss another. Also just the sheer number of topics covered make them easy to forget.
People who ask questions are always fucking retarded, and he'll have to go off on some tangent to provide an interesting answer to the non-question.

You are in for, I should think, you know... and scho on...
