We both enjoy seeing standup comedy, and the majority of the times we've cried together have been thanks to the hilarity of a newly discovered standup comedian on a televised stage.
Anyway, as we're watching LCS go to commercial break, we discover NBC is trying to milk more money out of the audience by displaying the setup of a joke on screen and inviting folks to text a number to get the punch line.
The hitch? it costs 99 cents for the privilege of getting the punch line, and the setups all look to be about 5th grade humor, at best.
So, why not nominate someone to pony up 99 cents to get the punch line and then tweet it to the collective Twitter? Simply keep the public twitter timeline open during broadcast, and you'll save at least $5 each over the course of a show!
Maybe one of the other 200,000 viewers of LCS will take the bait?
