The joke barely even makes sense, if restaurants exist there's going to be servers, regardless of perceived intellect from reading. It's a very strangely formed joke.

What's the name of the most famous Russian ballerina? Cholanka Sbilenka

It was just a way to bash the wait staff, purely classist.

Was Alex Jones playing Bill Hicks, or was Bill Hicks playing Alex Jones?

For me, it's the infamous Chicago show where he loses it.

I do prefer his later Borat-style in character comedy bits.

He’d be far more bitter than Maron but less neurotic; so who knows how the podcast would’ve gone

Yes. Commies do like their proles illiterate and easily indoctrinated.

Years ago I had an idea for a comic / book character diving into this.

During his lifetime Hicks was quite big in the UK because his jokes about rednecks and evil Republicans clicked with anti-US sentiment here, especially among middle-class students with notions of superiority. In the Dubya era Hicks's shows acquired currency again, with 9/11 truthers taking a particular interest, but many of us in that generation were obliged to point out that the guy just wasn't funny. And not only was he not funny, he also had cringelord tendencies and took himself too seriously, dressing up as a preacher and reciting aggrandizing poems about himself before his shows. Fuck off. If Hicks is influential in modern comedy, I think's it's only as a cautionary tale, an example of what NOT to do.

As for the Alex Jones question: no, because Alex Jones is funnier and has better morals.

>dude he's like smoking and burning the flag bro woah
