Happy Birthday, Funny Dudes!

Just last week, I told you guys about how so many awesome people were born in June.  That’s still a fact, but it turns out that so many hilarious men were born specifically on June 17th. Don’t believe me?  Well, I hope you can handle being so, so wrong, because I’ve compiled a wonderful little list that I’m pretty positive you’ll love.

5.  Jon Gries

Um, he played Uncle Rico in Napoleon Dynamite.

4.  Greg Kinnear

Greg Kinnear has done many wonderful things, but my favorite is Little Miss Sunshine. Also, one time he was Matt Damon‘s conjoined twin, which makes him A-OK in my book.

3.  Barry Manilow

I know, I know, technically Barry Manilow isn’t a comedian, but I can never help but laugh at him. Not in a mean way, it’s just … I don’t know, I just think he’s a funny dude.  If that offends your musical tastes, then just listen to “Mandy” and cry like my great aunt does, no big deal.

2.  Will Forte

So sorry for the Hulu, but this is my favorite thing that Will Forte ever did. Megan Fox still sucks, but I will laugh forever at this clip, and that’s enough reason to send a birthday card right there.

1. Michael Showalter

Most of the time my Michael love is focused on Michael Ian Black, but secretly, I think I might love Michael Showalter just a little, tiny bit more. Just a smidge.  Don’t tell him I said that.
