This story should be a lesson to kids. The guy who tried his best to be cool, but got picked on by the cool kids, is now ripped and making millions of dollars in a major Marvel movie.
Holy shit I just remembered. When I was kid we Called one of our friends egg nog because if you said gay backwards that’s what it kinda sorta sounded like. Kids can be so cruel.
Nah. I never saw people as cool vs uncool. I always did saw them as good people vs bad people. The fact that people actually ever gave a crap about "cool" will always remain weird to me.
I was the poor guy in an elite highschool, but I came from a village, so the city kids looked like dumbass children in my eyes. At 14 I already had experience in slaughtering animals, I worked on a tractor, I drove cars, I was in bar fights, shot guns, had sex with older girls, and made money by selling stolen scrap metal from a military base, and smuggling petrol across the border, the usual stuff in the early '90s Eastern Europe. The coolest thing the cool city kids were doing was smoking behind the gym, but I didnt care about that, I thought it was ridiculous.I became insta-cool when I beat up a bully who was a foot taller than me, and I was the only one that knew how to start a fire and grill meat, so I was the man at lakeside parties.
When there is a pro to get the soundboard properly adjusted, this technique gives the performer more control is using the dynamics of his voice. In the old days, you’d see performers put their thumb on the mic, then rest the thumb on their chin. You can’t do this for karaoke...the soundboard has to be tuned for the specific performer.
@@AndyDuphresne Common, cut him some slack. He was kinda put on the spot when Kumail asked him that. Maybe he's just not too creative and said the first thing that came to his mind, because it was literally what Kumail started the story with.
1q3er5 I fucking hate, Spitters. Grown men that think they're on a baseball field or some shit. It's fucking gross and it's habitual for these people. I see spit all over the ground when I'm pumping gas. It's nasty. I used to be a spitter because I played baseball and that behavior leaks over to non-baseball life. I realized how gross and bullshit it was to do, so I stopped...because I'm mature.
I can relate to this. There are so many assholes that make fun of other people to look cool in front of the popular kids, but when it's just me and them, they are a lot nicer to me.
Benjamin Verheijden This guy. Attacking the people who are criticizing Kumal's bit is an ad hominem. Just because you've never done something doesn't mean you can't critique it. I'd wager that the majority of movie critics have never made a movie themselves- that doesn't make their complaints any less valid.
“You know those people who come back from somewhere and they become hot like they stepped in the captain America machine?” Yeah Kumail we do know those people 👀
Love to see a Pakistani doing so great comedy in America. You're very original and it's awesome to see that a lot of your comedy stems from the life you lived in Pakistan. Well done bro, Keep it up!!!!
Somewhere in the world his "cool" schoolmates must be thinking that this guy that they egged is now in the Marvel's eternals. So basically it doesn't matter if you're cool in school, you can get cooler way after that.
I wasn't a cool kid, but I was never thrown eggs. I was just the guy that stood on the sidelines and did nothing. In a way I still am, going about life minding my own business. Not cool enough to be cool, not nerdy enough to be bullied.... just another egocentric nobody this world has plenty of. What am I doing with my life. TH-cam got real.
If you guys liked Kumail, you'll enjoy my standup comedy th-cam.com/video/sRcE0RLdAoA/w-d-xo.html I'm new to the game but very welcoming to any and all critique to improve myself. It's free laughs, check it out!!
Wht would anyone get angry? His liberal use of the word heck...lmao. Kids these days are pussies I used to get bullied on by real bullies, i didn't have to start a fight on a message board. We're talking real violence you don't have to have Wifi to get.
Most important thing I learned in life. No matter how you try to mask and mimic others, you will never be good enough and it's so much better when you just accept, move on, and learn to love yourself (or at least not actively try to pretend to be someone else). Some people just aren't cut out to fit in.
HupfDole87 Real quick just to say. Fuck you cause your profile picture, made me think there was a spider on my computer. XD sorry to waste your time with this. Have a good day.
It ain't exactly your "floor the audience" performance, but it's based on an actual life story. For authenticity he gets a W. not everything needs to be made up by comedians. Look at Kevin Hart for example, claims "Real Story I swear, my daughter crawled out of the backseat of the car with a shotgun and points it at me.." Those over-the-top fake ass deliveries, inlcuding him annoyingly claiming it happened as a true story can make the audience turned off after a while. Atleast Kumail keeps it real.
that's a massive coincidence considering he also makes bubbles in madison! noisey.vice.com/en_uk/blog/the-guy-who-produced-snows-informer-now-makes-bubbles-in-madison-square-park
I'm Jamaican and I LOVEEEEE that song. Major hit out here, to this day. I think it's awesome that we can influence music all over the world. Most of us don't see it as appropriation, as long as you call it by it's name (reggae or dancehall). It's also nice if you mention us 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
This guy, right here, is the best part of Adventure Time, Parks and Rec and Assassin's Creed: Black Flag; love his voice and love his comedy stylings. So good.
Nigeman He was the sassy tech guy working for Abstergo who would lead you through the missions while outside the Animus in Black Flag. Very weird casting, but it fits.
Broad City, too. He's wearing a dorky helmet and thinks he's cool as if he's doing the Amazing Race. Hilarious bit. Also fantastic on Silicon Valley as a regular character.

@@HanSoloxcs Except he wasn't in a Marvel movie seven years ago. And this comment was made two months ago.

Where is your Malid?
Nah, fuck that guy!
Oh fuck that guy😂😂no offence bro

"I'm physically very weak." ... Sure, Kumail. Sure you are.
Lol
*laughs in Eternals*
2014 Kumail had no idea what’s coming his way! 😂
he is mamadisimo
He said his muscles are decorative
2014 Kumail: I am physically very weak.
2019 Kumail: Shut up, nerd! **knocks 2014 Kumail out in one punch**
2021 Kumail: Shut up, freaks! I'm a superhero and a Bollywood star.
Laughed so hard at the mental image of an egg-splattered, tearful Kumail running back to his house, shouting over his shoulder "Eggs backward is gay!"
Holy shit I just remembered. When I was kid we Called one of our friends egg nog because if you said gay backwards that’s what it kinda sorta sounded like. Kids can be so cruel.
@@thehorseformerlywithoutana2522 if you say egg nog backwards it sound like gone gay.
Jacob Clancy that was his name. Gone Gay.

@@rishabhpandey429 Wow, that is a really gay name.
Oh why am I crying? Because the cake fucked up.
Man this was good. Really funny. Wicked delivery too.
Whenever someone asks me why I'm crying I say "because I'm sad" and look at them as if they are dense.
Waleed is probably kicking himself in the ass somewhere knowing this guy is now in Marvels Eternals. With the marvel bod and all man

Whether it is Pakistan, America, or wherever, we all wanted to be cool when we were in high school.
The same in Sweden. I was not cool!
Nah.
I never saw people as cool vs uncool.
I always did saw them as good people vs bad people.
The fact that people actually ever gave a crap about "cool" will always remain weird to me.
In our school the cool people are the good people the people who are trying to be cool are mostly bad kids.

Does lying in internet comments make you feel interesting?
“I’m physically very weak.”
That didn’t age well 😂
This guy's chin and the microphone are inseparable.
I think it's so he can avoid variations on his voice volume, which can be distracting. A few other comics do it as well.
Mat1n1234 great. Thanks for pointing it out so now it can bug me ..haha
Thanks... I didn't notice until I read this... LOL
When there is a pro to get the soundboard properly adjusted, this technique gives the performer more control is using the dynamics of his voice.
In the old days, you’d see performers put their thumb on the mic, then rest the thumb on their chin.
You can’t do this for karaoke...the soundboard has to be tuned for the specific performer.
Mat1n1234 you did I didn’t notice until I read that hahaha
“I don’t want to change the world I just want to be cool.” Most honest statement ever.
1:28 I grew up in Pakistan.. that is not the sad part of the story...
OMG this dialogue is my life
Hu. Hu. Hu.
and as he says that he looks in the camera and does the fake laugh
"say anything sir"
"pakistan"
he said, "YOURE FROM Pakistan" >.
Hahaha

Obsessed with his stand up. For me It's hard to actually sit through a stand-up routine but this one was just really great.
I have a hard time watching stand up so I just listen to it. It's my fav thing to listen to in the car.
Love to see a Pakistani doing so great comedy in America. You're very original and it's awesome to see that a lot of your comedy stems from the life you lived in Pakistan. Well done bro, Keep it up!!!!

this is the most anyone has ever talked about informer.
One of the best ones yet. He is great. Too funny!
It was real and funny. He took what some people would kill themselves over and turned it on it's head. I found his story funny as heck.

There are not words to describe how much I love this story!

Not anymore, you're not, Kumail the Eternal.
Dude used his money to make the Capt America machine and became Malid.
I lost it at drive way cake. Literally in tears.
Enjoyed your video so I gave it a Thumbs Up
i can't get enough of this ~ the format is brilliant, nothing is more hilarious than the truth ~ i wish Patton Oswald & Chris Titus were part of this!
dammit the wario joke fuckin slayed me hahaha. this dude's one of the best comedians out there right now imo.

Damn.. that's deep man.. u sharing this story thanks
I love this guy's segment!
The “informer” thing actually killed me. That is so perfect and hilarious.
Great story... Walk slow.. laugh short... Check out Kumail Nanjiani, great comedian.
love this!
Big fan of Kamail, and This Is Not Happening. I don't want them to ever end!
This guy kills his stand up
"A licky boom boom down"
Loved the end! I can't even imagine a Friend like that
Haha one of my favorite up and coming comics, hilarious.
i can't stop my laughing.. and thinking about your facial expression when you got waleed facebook request.
I just heard this "informer" song...
Loved it...when snow say " informer, djggftcrhfsehgdseeyha", I felt that...
Shout out from Jamaica!
Good one dinesh
Teaching a life lesson while being so funny. This dude is legend.
All those kids that threw eggs at him... I wonder how they feel about themselves and the choices they made 🤔
Probably thought it was cool.
Have had “Informer” stuck in my head since watching this. Thanks dude.😒
I just finished Silicon Valley.. I didn't know Dinesh was a stand-up comedian. This was great!
I've watch this like 10 times. Still funny.
how can one person be so funny charming charismatic relatable etc.
I watched "the big sick" and it's was amazingly awesome 👌👌.now I m just watching the back story .u r great
Anyone else think he sounds like the evil guy from phineas and ferb
Ne platupusssssssss is going to save us (😬)
I was thinking the same thing! Doofenschmirtz!
How many of you'll googled Snow's Informer after watching this, cos you just had to listen to it one...more...time
I only do that about half the time I rewatch this bit now but the first 10 times I watched this bit I had to everytime.
Fun fact: The guy that did the "Informer" song is the cousin of the actor who plays Bubbles in Trailer Park Boys.
that's a massive coincidence considering he also makes bubbles in madison!

Naah, that´s only the co-producer. :)
Maybe Snow was the inspiration behind J-Rock.
It’s actually J Roc
Just looked for Snow - Informer again and found out he made a remastered version and a new video. It's pretty cool!
The difference in this video and his new body health etc is soooo crazy and inspiring aswell damn!
It only slightly bothers me that the microphone is attached to his chin.
Jimmy T never noticed it..... It's now all I can see .... thanks dick.
