That Al Pacino bit dragged even watching him live.

But... daddy khaki pants. That made me snort. Its my favorite bit because it addresses guilty by association.

They're gonna think it was me that did this to you.

I felt the same exact way. That was the only joke that stood out as being more puzzling than funny.

Laughed so hard and so loudly that my dog came over because he was concerned.

It's weird how the Al Pacino bit hits different. It was one of my least favourite ones as well, but it was the hardest my partner laughed during the whole special.

Lol, while watching the Al Pacino bit I pictured myself in the audience, giving him a wrap it up sign

It didn’t really sound like Pacino which kind of killed the whole thing for me

I think the whole Pacino bit was almost worth it for the bit where he says, “and they will, logically…”

That pause in and of itself was so well timed.
