The cutting edge of comedy?

Some people say that if you have been reading a blog for a long time it can seem like you know the person behind the blog in an almost personal fashion. Well, to me it seems very much like I've actually met this particular blogger in the flesh, though I admit that it was dark and things were a little hazy:

Seasoned veterans know what they can get away with, but at this time of year there are always people out on the street who think I love taking to them and that they are really funny, that it’s ok to run down the street carrying a traffic cone and that I should not snarl at them when they argue with me.

The search for comedic excellence is an experimental one. Sometimes it falls flat and sometimes it's so cutting edge that people actually don't get it.

Traffic cone, on the head, with the running and the singing. Oh come on! With the singing! No?
