Paul F. Tompkins Thread

[scamboogah]

Anyone here ever heard of this guy?

He's like totally funny!

[Big Box Of Money]

One time my friend and I saw Paul outside of a comedy club in Philadelphia where he had just performed comedy(we had just seen him INSIDE of this club). He was talking to some other people and we were gonna talk to him next, but we turned around for a couple of seconds and when we turned back again Paul had gone inside.

TRUE STORY!!

[BillBrasky]

Paul is the host of the Reel Comedy special on "Step Brothers"; it's running on Comedy Central all this week.

Paul seems to be unnecessarily concerned with minutiae. It is the basis of his act.

He also wears suits containing many colors that are not found in nature.

Also, if you look up "foppish" in the dictionary, the entry contains his picture. True.

He's much more of a "dandy," IMO, more so than a "fop."

Are you saying he's a hooker from the 1920's?

[Bucky_Sinister]

By no means, my good man. The dandy is more about the watch fob and the top hat and the fop is powdered wigs and stockings.

Fops are 18th century, Dandies a 19th century type...

Hookers from the '20s? I have no idea what they're called. GGILFs?

[dougbenson]

great questions AND answers!

(keep up the good work)

Those were flappers - and they weren't hookers. They were just ahead of their time.

[Nizzles]

I'm fairly certain that an identical thread to this was euthanized before the AST Crash of '08.
Ask Paul about the old thread in person at the Paul F. Tompkins Show, at Largo at the Coronet Theater on August 9, 2008. There will be guests, and they will be special. I can promise that seeing Paul "F is for Fancy" Tompkins in a proper theater with a full backing band and red velvet curtains makes for a whole new, and wholly awesome experience for the typical L.A. alt-comedy fan.

If you need a clearer picture, imagine seeing PFT and Jon Brion perform at the muppet show theater. How much fun is that?

[J.B.]

Anyone know where to find that video of the 4th grade talent show version of PFT's Stromboli bit?

Dear Paul,

Since you are not here to rebut me... well, there's something I've been meaning to get off my chest...

YOU ARE WRONG!!! PIE IS BETTER THAN CAKE BY TONS. CAKE IS ASS COMPARED TO A DELICIOUS PIE LIKE PECAN OR CHOCOLATE.

Otherwise, I love you and will miss you in LA,

yours,

Are you related to Clicky Pardue? Hardcore NNF fans am I right? Anybody?

Anyone knows when a new album might be recorded?


Fabio wants to know.

[Shane]

Fabio: Oh, Fabio's going to have a good day surfing the internet, today!

Fabio: Oh no! Why does everybody hate Fabio?

[crlygrl]

PFT on The Best Show tonight! Tune it at www.wfmu.org! Doooo it!

[KeithTalent]

Dear Pauly T,

FACT: It is unreasonable to denigrate pies as you can put almost anything in a pie. What's a thing you like? Cover it with pie crust. Delicious.

FACT: "Crust" is an unpleasant word. You shouldn't let that fool you.

FACT: You should use your immeasurable sway over Jon Brion's career to nag him into making another pop record, tout de suite!

FACT: I should stop posting inane things and go to bed.

Love,

"Keith"

Paul,

So, I found the CD.

Yeah, it was hiding in my copy of Bobcat's recent. Funny thing, The Bobcat CD was still there, I guess I was just too lazy to put Impersonal in an empty CD case let alone IT'S OWN GODDAMN CASE!!!!

Crisis averted! Heh heh heh...

So.

Let's just move forward. You do your magic. I'll continue to figure out mine.

OH! and not that I'll see the possibility but If anyone questions your now-cryptic message on the inside sleeve, I-I'll cover for you I got your back.

Ahhh, don't mention it.

[Fentmore]

Speaking of Impersonal, that was about a year ago, yeah? Has anything been moving on the new CD? I caught PFT's comedy central presents (thanks On Demand) and I very much liked it alot.
