Jesus Says ‘Skip Church; Seek Comedy’ at Sunday Night Live
Swear to God: Last Sunday, His Holy Highness spoke to me through a piece of wheat toast onto which his face was burnt.
He said, “Mr. Rox,” – the J-Man is very formal like that – “unless you want to get manhandled by a priest, you should stay in bed on this fine Sabbath morning. But when you’re good and ready to get your hot ass up, I’d like you to slip into your fave pair of jeans, throw on a T-shirt and go see a show. No rush, though. It doesn’t start until 8pm. So if you want to toss a few back beforehand, I won’t mind. Because Jesus loves you.”
Never one to defy the divine order of the King of Kings – or resist the ice-cold calling of the King of Beers – I did as I was told by my square slice of carbohydrate. Denim on, tee half tucked, and inhibitions three sex-stained sheets to the wind, I pocketed my FREE tix to Sunday Night Live and had a good laugh. At many people’s expense.
And if you’re of questionable sanity – and moral fiber – you can chuckle your way to eternal damnation, too.
The show, hosted by Jamie Roberts and Esteban Romero, bids each weekend goodbye with the help of comedians from HBO’s “Def Comedy Jam,” “Last Comic Standing,” “The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson” and tons of other shows you don’t really watch. Which is even more reason to check this shit out – you won’t have heard the same joke for the third time. And even if you have, the tickets are FREE, so STFU.
A two-drink minimum does apply, but it doesn’t have to be alcohol. Juice, soda and bottled water count. Just for you, pansy ass.
Now if you’ll excuse me, I have a few more religious groups to offend. My work is never done.
