So I stumbled upon some of Demetri Martin's standup on YouTube the other day, and I gotta say, he's got some great one-liners.

You might have seen Demetri on The Daily Show before, and he's apparently growing in popularity as an up and coming comedian (don't let that baby face fool you though - he's 35 ^o^).

If you've ever seen Steven Wright's material before, you can tell that it has heavily influenced Demetri's comedy - a very dry and almost lethargic style of joke-telling. However, what makes Demetri really unique is his integration of music, drawings, and visual stimuli in his act.

Here's a few of my favorite Demetri jokes:

• I was on the street. This guy waved to me, and he came up to me and said, “I’m sorry, I thought you were someone else.” And I said, “I am.”


• A lot of people don't like bumper stickers. I don't mind bumper stickers. To me a bumper sticker is a shortcut. It's like a little sign that says 'Hey, let's never hang out.'


• I used to play sports. Then I realized you can buy trophies. Now I’m good at everything.
• 'Sort of' is such a harmless thing to say. Sort of. It's just a filler. Sort of - it doesn't really mean anything. But after certain things, 'sort of' means everything.
  
  Like after 'I love you'....
  
  or 'You're going to live.'...
  
  or 'It's a boy'.
