In my spare time I do standup comedy, and I do a bit onstage about Street Fighter IV.
Just wanted to share this video of it; I'm happy with how it turned out:

Heh, thanks. The joke only works about half the time in front of an audience, but I think it's because there's such a strong visual component to it.
So I figured Youtube might be a better place for it to live..

I agree. I was pleasantly surprised. If I had one issue, it was the build up was a little too long (but what do I know), but the payoff was pretty funny. Huzzah! | Zeruel

Totally. That's what I was thinking of, format-wise, along with shows like "Shorties Watching Shorties" - stuff that lets the joke act as the narration for the scene.
And Leroy, I agree. That's actually something I'm trying to work on as a comic, to get to the punchlines quicker. :)

Also, you should add a joke or two making fun of the name "Seth". You got a laugh just by saying it. It really is an incredibly bland name for a video game supervillain. | Oliver
