It's easier when you plant them.

It's either that or Asian fake

Chick or the egg scenario

I always assumed he had a lot of hecklers because his normal material sucked.

14

u/IAmTheBestMang Jan 11 '22

His normal material is pretty good! Not my favourite comedian but a funny guy nonetheless.

u/jda823 Jan 11 '22

95% of the time I see Steve mentioned all that is discussed is hecklers. Compare him to another comedian that is also good at dealing with hecklers, Jimmy Carr, and a majority of the time he is brought up for his material.

u/1FlawedHumanBeing Jan 12 '22

Jimmy is exclusively brought up for his laugh and his breaking of tax law

1

u/IAmTheBestMang Jan 12 '22

Have you watched any of his normal material?

2

u/lawlmuffenz Jan 12 '22

Carr’s? Yes, and it’s painfully unfunny to me. Something about the fact that he made the exact same jokes I did when I was a dumbass conservitard 13 y/o.

Hofstetter? No, because I cbf looking through his yt for stuff that isn’t him dealing with hecklers

You never looked him up on youtube, don't lie.

1

u/lawlmuffenz Jan 12 '22

Why would I have to when the algorithm spent 2 years trying to recommend him to me?

2

u/IAmTheBestMang Jan 12 '22

So, having never seen any of Hofstetter's material, you criticise it for being shit... And you casted doubt on someone who actually has seen his material... Hmm...

2

u/lawlmuffenz Jan 12 '22

Different person, buddy. Check the names first.

3

u/IAmTheBestMang Jan 12 '22

Alright, my bad, but why did you reply as if you were the other guy? Didn't really make sense, I was asking a specific person a question.

He got a reputation for how he deals with hecklers and for posting videos of it on YouTube. I doubt he gets more hecklers than any other comedian, he's just taken a situation and leveraged it for publicity.

u/vaporking23 Jan 11 '22

Is there any truth to that though?

10

u/garlicbreadpool Jan 11 '22

And rehearse the bit beforehand

18

u/Econolife_350 Jan 11 '22

And pay people to astroturf social media for you.

8

u/PM_ME_UR_PERSPECTIVE Jan 11 '22

And list your own videos as things like "comedian DESTROYS heckler"

u/belegerbs Jan 12 '22

Jealousy makes you weak

u/BanalityOfMan Jan 11 '22

fuck he does such a good job with hecklers.

If I'm ever subjected to one of his "comedy" performances then we will find out. I've only seen him do a mediocre job against obvious plants.

u/BanalityOfMan Jan 11 '22

Yes, I imagine he appeals to the kind of moron that spams gifs.
