And also Spanish.
I had a bit where I would do a Sean Connery impersonation and just talk about Spanish stuff like a weeb for Spain
“My name’s Ramirez, I am a Spaniard from Spain”
“You should really try the paella, it’s rice with seafood, it sounds weird but it’s really good”
“When you say tapas, make sure you put the -sh on the end, that way you sound authentic or as we say in Spain, autentico”
good bit
I love how this sounds like a weird bit you’d just come up with and it becomes even funnier with context because of how niche it is
It arose because we were making fun of Sean Connery being a cantakerous old bastard and I mentioned how he didn’t really have a leg to stand on because he would just take the weirdest roles
My buddy said, “Oh yeah, like we were supposed to believe he was from Spain in Highlander” and I just started riffing in my Sean Connery impersonation
And a legend was born
He’sh not Shpanish he’sh egypthian
I would pay to watch this stand up bit
I gotta get my confidence up to be able to do more public stuff
I’m funny, i’m attractive, I can say the craziest shit without giggling at myself
I should be on TV
Yes! You for sure should!
I was a musical theatre kid and now my favorite outlet for performing in public is singing at dive bar karaoke nights.
I am also blessed with being conventionally attractive (albeit still performing as a man).
I think that theatre background has also helped me cope with gender dysphoria. I’m just playing a character and my life is just a stage.

Colonel Gentleman from Venture Bros has a similar bit when Dean is living with him in Morocco
KIKI GET THAT SWEET ASS OVER HERE!
And he has a Japanese katana.
That part is very quickly explained and more believable than him being Egyptian
Impossible, there can be only one type of dude
dont forget an alien from another planet as well
I read about that. A friend of mine made the mistake of watching II and said it was so bad it makes you hate the first movie for allowing it to exist. I can’t watch something that will taint my love for Highlander
i just pretend it doesnt exist.
I mean, the rest of the series as well as the show don’t acknowledge it, so why should we?
yeah but there’s also highlander 5, and that’s awful but somehow less offensive than 2
I didn’t watch 5 to be honest. I receive enough profound disappointment by reading the the news.
it felt like some college film majors doing a movie.
computa, make these two guys kiss

What movie is this?
Highlander (1986)
Ah thanks, it’s been almost 30 years since I saw that. I heard there is a new on in the works.
Is it any good?
it has some genuinely cool scenes but is also a little cheeseball. I think it’s worth watching the rifftrax version at least if you’ve never seen it
Surely immortals would move on to new identities all the time. Are you really going to talk about how great 2264 bc was for 4 thousand years?
