Steve Martins Penis Beauty Cream…simply hilarious.

Steve: “You started using my product by accident”  
Kevin Nealon: “That’s right Steve. I thought it was for something else.”

Chris Elliot (one of the most underrated comedians ever by the way): “Now I can throw away all those old jars of Turtle Wax.”

I’m laughing just thinking about this sketch

They had a real classic today on E!. The pricegun you can use to make shopping cheaper. Simply enter the price you want to pay. Place the pricegun over the old price, pull the trigger and ta-da 3¢ watermelon.

“Shirt in a Can” with Tim Meadows.

For some reason I laugh hysterically when he spills his breakfast, ruining his white shirt, and yells, “Damn it!”

Then, later, the narrator says, “You’ve got a nice build. Do you work out?”

Makes me smile every time.

This was actually a Chevy Chase skit from the movie _The Groove Tube._
