"I'll just give you the money, and you give me the doughnut, end of transaction. We don't need to bring ink and paper into this."

R.I.P. Mitch

My absolute favorite joke of his wasn't even a real joke.

Apparently Mitch was checking into a hotel and the receptionist asked for a credit card. Mitch being the guy he was he didn't have a credit card. So he pulls out a big wad of cash and says "Nah man this will cover it". So the receptionist is like "No sir, I need a credit card". Mitch's reaction was priceless. Apparently he replied "Nah man, this is what the card represents. That would be like if you hired a Frank Sinatra impersonator and the real Frank Sinatra showed up and you were like, 'Nah we're gonna go with the impersonator'"

I forget who told that story but it always makes me laugh hard.

Beautiful. Someone had to make a documentary. It's on my bucket list.

Yeah, grand theft Donut's a real life ruiner of a sentence.

Patrice O'Neal had a great joke that was kind of the opposite of this.

George Costanza's over-stuffed wallet. Now I'm thinking that man knew stuff.

On a serious note, it happens to me often. We're a small crew of field service employees, and our meals are covered when we'reout and about, so when it's my time to get lunch, I need the receipt, and sometimes it lists donuts.

On an even more serious note, that font really gives me a dyslexic attack. And I don't even have dyslexia.

Per diem is the first thing I thought of.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

That's usually what I do, but because of some bureaucratic reason I never understood, some projects don't allow per diem, so we have to provide specifics instead.

Yeah eating on expenses this is needed

I concur, that font the website uses are random.
A friendly heads-up... I am finding a couple more of my favorite comedians with quotes. And the fonts again, out of my control. I will try to avoid the most visually itchy ones.

If this is a real Mitch joke, it's one of the weaker ones.

The post title one was my own. I should make time to find and watch his sets. Man is legend and I've never heard many of his material.
