As the year winds down, WitOut collects lists from comedy performers and fans of their favorite moments, comedians, groups, shows, etc. from the last year in Philly comedy. Top 5 of 2012 lists will run throughout December–if you’d like to write one, pitch us your list at contact@witout.net!
My name is Nora and I am in a sketch group called American Breakfast. I never go to anything or talk to anyone so I am forever having conversations with 3/4 of American Breakfast about who the heck they are talking about. They’ll tell me things like, “He’s a part of [nonsense name]” or “He has brown hair.” Big help, guys. So, here’s my list of the Top 5 Guys Whose Names I Can’t Remember.
1. …Matt?
2. Tall guy. People seem to really like him but I’m not sure I’ve ever heard him talk. It would be funny if he had a real squeaky voice.
3. OK this guy has a beard but he’s NOT the other guy with a beard. They both intimidate me.
4. Hat guy. He’s got like… a hat. At least one time I saw him wearing a hat.
5. Dumb face. God this guy’s face is so dumb. Nice guy though.
Nora is a member of sketch group American Breakfast, and far too easy to be Googled to have her last name tied to and held accountable for her illustrious comedy career.
I’m consistently surprised by the lack of Matts in the Philly comedy scene. Myself, Holmes, Akana, Lally, Jay & Lamson – I think there were more Matts than that in my Freshman English class…
Tall guy moved to California.
Good guess.
Sincerely,
Hat Guy
My face isn’t that dumb. Geez. Oh wait, you said a nice guy, nevermind.
