Steve Harvey: "We asked 100 people, what is the male reproductive organ?"

Contestant: "The penis"

SH: "A WUH... HUH??" audience erupts into laughter Steve Harvey grabs onto podium to support himself laughter gets even louder

SH: O lordy... one man goes into cardiac arrest and many others begin vomiting profusely from laughing too hard

SH: YOU PEOPLE NEED HELP the Earth shatters and Satan rises from the underworld to claim unworthy souls the universe begins rapidly closing in on itself

SH: (putting on a weary voice) Survey says... the board shows 100 for "penis" Harvey is able to get off one more shocked look before existence as we know it comes to an end

lol I read that as “existence as we know it comes to an ad” thinking you meant going into a perpetual commercial break

[–] Antimoon51@lemmy.world 10 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

a perpetual commercial break

This is how I imagine hell... Waiting for something to continue.. forever..

Anyways, I'm gonna get myself some popcorn. Someone else?

[–] NakariLexfortaine@lemm.ee 1 points 10 months ago

Hey, uh...

Microwaves broken, and we're out of popcorn.

The issues are related, and it's Steve's fault.

[–] AVincentInSpace@pawb.social 3 points 10 months ago

you forgot the part where Steve Harvey, in the anguished tones of a man who has crossed hell and is delivering one final message, screams to the stage directors

"THE PENIS"

[–] rauls4@lemm.ee 60 points 10 months ago (2 children)

That guy is an atheist hating asshole and has got far more miles from the shtick than ever should have.

[–] Uglyhead@lemmy.world 15 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Not to mention his being massively misogynistic, and his ‘Moral Barometer’ bullshit.

[–] tigeruppercut@lemmy.zip 8 points 10 months ago

and completely unfunny, never done anything in his entire career except gape at the camera in mock surprise-- you could throw a rock in Antarctica and hit someone with more talent

[–] EmergMemeHologram@startrek.website 45 points 10 months ago

Steve Harvey wrote a book explaining why him cheating on his wife was his wife’s fault for being too slutty.

Then they made two movies out of it.

Well that was certainly horrifyingly accurate.

[–] BeardedSingleMalt@kbin.social 18 points 10 months ago

Was flipping through the channels the other day and the question was something like "What is the last place you want to spend new years?"

The person sad "Jail" and of course he collapses into the podium Whaaa. And of course it was the #1 answer.

[–] obinice@lemmy.world 9 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I dunno who that Steve guy is, but what's with that photo of Jamie Hyneman?!

[–] soycapitan451@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago

It's from an episode of Pingu. I only know this because it terrified me as a child and still haunts my nightmares as I approach my 40s.

[–] CaptainBlagbird@lemmy.world 8 points 10 months ago (2 children)

I still have nightmares from that Pingu episode Dx

[–] smitten@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 9 months ago

Ikr why tf did they make such nightmare fuel

He’s really bad as a host

That’s the only joke he has that isn’t racist

[–] Moira_Mayhem@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 10 months ago (1 children)

He’s really bad as a host

You say that but his stupid shocked face literally kept the show alive long LONG after it should have passed away peacefully.

I mean its almost like his semi incompetence is a cultivated branding trait now.

[–] ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca 4 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Maybe it’s an American thing

To me Canada’s version is much better because we have a host that can actually read the questions and banter with the people

[–] Moira_Mayhem@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 10 months ago

Yeah American TV is definitely lowest common denominator. It's popular because it caters to the same kind of people that would like 'ow my nuts' from idiocracy, and those kinds are endless in number.

Again, he's not a good host for comedy, delivery, or pacing, but his stupid face and bumbling nature is beloved by many.

Like a children's birthday clown without makeup.

This meme awoke deep rooted childhood trauma I completely forgot I had

[–] Zoboomafoo 5 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Paul Harvey > Steve Harvey

[–] UnrepententProcrastinator@lemmy.ca 6 points 10 months ago

Easy to beat, Steve Harvey is a very vocal anti-atheist. Immediate POS in my book.
