Tell Me About Your Spleen
- Thread starter TerzaRima
- Start date
I tried my hand at stand-up comedy once, and I did a weird bit about spleens. Basically, I took phrases and movie titles and turned them spleenic. Some were a BIG stretch, but some were really obvious.
For instance:
The Space Be-Spleen
Spleen Latifah
Spleen-an Thorpe
Nicole Spleenman
Alec Baldwin-Spleen
You get the picture.
ETA: All I did was stand on stage for about 4 minutes rattling these off. I got more laughs for the concept than for what came out of my mouth.

Similar to that other thread Tell Me About Your Gall Bladder, I picture a person lying on a couch while the psychiatrist sits in a chair and says, "So, tell me about your spleen."
I like the concept too, but I can hear the car crash noises. I tried my hand at a comedy club in New York and bombed, I never set foot on stage again.

That's liver. For spleen, you want a robust red wine paired with shittake mushrooms lightly sauteed with butter and just a touch of garlic.

I prefer a nice sauvignon blanc with my spleen. Or a chard/sauvignon blend.
Unless it's raining - then I pair it with merlot.
