Holy crap, low sound quality, or is it just me?

Perfect ending. Love it!

Is anyone else so burned out by people staring at their phones that a comedian on stage staring at his phone feels a bit tragic

Not really. For me, the first bit where he wasn't staring at his phone was the unfunny bit.

Funny enough, I have a lot of friends who do amateur hours, and a lot of comics keep the sets their developing on their phones. It's not uncommon to see a comic with their phone out, reading off jokes or scenarios.

They don't do it on main stage performances, but when they're working on bits, or timing, you see it a lot.

Wow... I'm fairly sure I got a message from her too... I remember a message that I ignored and deleted, somebody from Texas, living in Chicago and in the UK. I didn't feel like going through the trouble of the scam.
I did once before though just for giggles. Some cute girl from Russia, or so was the claim. She gave me an address in Russia she wanted me to send her money so she could come see me (the request for money was several emails later)... when I told her I was broke, she complained how I don't trust her, and after she sent me lots of pictures (she did send me some pics, it occurred to me later I should have had her have a pic with my name and her name to prove she was who she was in the pic)... Eventually I just told her to leave me alone if she doesn't believe if I'm broke, but if she's ever in the area to look me up (not that she had any real contact information anyhow to even begin to know where I was). EDIT: I just searched my email... seems I did keep her messages, though not the ones I made to her, and she did send a pic (which looked a bit photoshopped) with my name on a paper... lol. Oh the memories... Olga was her name, though everyone calls her Masyanya... looking Olga Tomsk (the city she's from) seems to indicate she's a regular scammer. Most seem to say she was just using form letters, but mine were personalized, so perhaps she had upgraded her game. Now I wish I had started messages with the Texas/Chicago/UK girl just to have more notes to compare.
