too, but mostly because I hate when people

Yes.

Well, what I did was have one of those
"sandwich signs" made--you know, the type
you wear over your head like a poncho--that
said "I AM A FUNNY GUY" in huge type on both
sides of it, and I wear it wherever I go. That
way, whether or not I'm the one telling the
jokes, everyone who sees me knows that I am
funny too.

One time some prankster snuck up behind
me while I was standing in a really long line
and defaced the back side of my sign. He took
one of those fat markers and crossed out the
"A" and the "GUY" and then wrote "LOOKIN'"
after the "FUNNY," so the back of my sign said
"I AM FUNNY LOOKIN'." Boy, let me tell you,
that made me mad when I found out. I had to
get a whole new sign made. Plus I went
around the rest of that day looking like a
moron and not even realizing it.

Those of you who were at the RinkUnion are
probably wondering why I wasn't wearing my
sign there. It wouldn't fit in the car; that's why I
didn't bring it. But you all already knew I was
funny, so I didn't really need it.
