- "It's a good thing we have gravity or else when birds died they'd just stay right up there. Hunters would be all confused. " This winner of a joke is the equivalent of saying, "Look, a dead bird!"
- "I lost a buttonhole." My personal all-time favorite Steven Wright one-liner. Like a two-sentence horror story, it's all about the brevity, and he earns all the slow claps here.
