Ken Jeong Was Hilarious 13 Years Ago

Oh, come on, I know. He’s funny now, too.

Here’s a 28-year-old Ken Jeong (The Hangover Part II, NBC’s Community) trying his hand at stand-up way back in 1998. What an excellent find! The clip might be NSFW, unless you have a cool boss, or headphones.

Now, at first I was all, “1998? That wasn’t very long ago.” Then I did some math on my fingers, realized that the majority of Beliebers were born in 1998, and stifled a tiny sob as I felt the icy grip of death clutching my left shoulder.

Speaking of death and dying…! Not only is Dr. Ken Jeong, M.D. oodles funnier than 1996 Seth Rogen but — I honestly believe this — Ken could have revolutionized comedy with his unexpected brand of “doctor humor.” (Watch for the hilariously unfunny “You Might Be a Diabetic” bit.)

    My year 7 students, who are 11 years old now, were born in 2000. I have students who were born in 2005. When they tell me, a little part of me dies.

    Hey Jenn, I like your taste :)
    Ken is SOOO funny, I nearly peed my pants during the first series of Community. The second season – no so much…
