I'm pretty sure the first one has been done, but
maybe not. |
|
| |
As for the second, many ventriloquists already do
that. |
|
| |
Probably. I'm admittedly not up on the state of the art. |
|
| |
Really? A straight man dummy you say? Hmm. (Interest in subject fading... fading... aaaaaand it's gone.) |

and then they develop AI's to help comics that aren't funny, and eventually either the human dies and nobody notices, or |

"Let's see how You like it, Human !!!" |

How about this? The comedian comes out with a ventriloquist dummy, takes a drink of water and then after a carefully timed long uncomfortable pause, throws the dummy to the ground and stomps it into little pieces then saying "I hate ventriloquist acts." |

I think everybody would be so relieved that it's not a ventriloquist act it would be a great way to break the ice. Instant bonding with the audience. |
|
| |
Yea, sort of a twist on that. |

There seems to be a certain amount of feeling that ventriloquists
should be grouped with mimes as targets for opprobium … |
|
| |
If ventriloquist and dummy are gay, then neither is the straight man. Would limit material and venue, but... |
|
| |
...lap joke in 3, 2... ahh forget it. |
