Greg Manuel's Blurbs |
About me:
New York-based writer and comedian. I've been at it since August of 2001. The summer after I got back from college, I tried my hand at an amateur contest and have been hooked ever since. I think all comedians remember their very first joke...mine went like this:
"Before I begin, I'd like to mention that I've decided that you can only hear so much about Tiger Woods, and...still give a shit. I think we've all forgotten one very important thing: IT'S STILL GOLF."
And so my fate was sealed...

My score on The 3 Variable Funny Test:
the Provacateur
((71% dark, 30% spontaneous, 42% vulgar))
your humor style:VULGAR | COMPLEX | DARK
You'll crack on anything, and you're often witty, even caustic, about it.Therefore, your sense of humor is polarizing. You're transgressive, and you've got a seriously sharp 'edge'--maybe too much for some folks. If they get you, people think you're one of the funniest (and smartest) people in the world. If they don't, they think you're an ass. Whatever, right? While some might question your judgement, your comic intellect is unquestionably respected.

Who I'd like to meet:
If you work in comics or perform standup, drop me a line - I'm always up for a collaboration. A mysterious benefactor or six wouldn't hurt, either...
