      Maybe he makes Chinese-Malaysian jokes when (if) he plays in Asia (although if he grew up in the U.K. that would be his reference point for humor).

    I love how at the end of their sets, comedians always say "I've been..." as if they're not going to have that name once they walk off stage! Does that make sense, or is it just my wierd brain?

    Damn I've seen Phil on panel shows and really liked him, he made some great jokes on 8 out of 10 cats but I didn't laugh a single time this routine. Very predictable puns that went on for too long. Also I think he presented jokes much better on the panel shows, stage fright perhaps?
