That influx of Nigerians trying to sell you V!@gr@ is completely coincidental.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Does Nigerian Viagra actually work?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 51);"&gt;Niger please.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How come you've never had my favorite superhero on the show?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 51);"&gt;Because your favorite superhero is probably Dazzler.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;What's wrong with Dazzler?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: rgb(255, 255, 51);"&gt;Let's just say her superpower has less to do with light and more to do with filing successful sexual harassment lawsuits.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Your press release says that The Shell show is the 17th most popular late night talk show on television, but there aren't that many late night talk shows.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: rgb(255, 255, 51);"&gt;Well, it turns out that Nielsen categorizes infomercials as talk shows.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;When will old Shell Shows be released on DVD?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: rgb(255, 255, 51);"&gt;Right after the VHS release.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;They stopped making VHS's.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 51);"&gt;Crap. I really need to start reading the trades again. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Is it true that Shell steals most of his jokes from David Letterman?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: rgb(255, 255, 51);"&gt;Absolutely not. Shell steals most of his jokes from Carlos Mencia.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Does The Shell Show ever have musical guests?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: rgb(255, 255, 51);"&gt;We try, but the musicians rarely end up playing anything.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Why?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 51);"&gt;Our studio used to house a meth lab, and the musicians' dressing room was the stockroom. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So there was a meth lab there before your show moved in?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 51);"&gt;Yeah...before...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Did you clear the meth out?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: rgb(255, 255, 51);"&gt;It's cheaper to let the musical guests do it.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Is that why you've booked Shania Twain 40 times in the past month?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: rgb(255, 255, 51);"&gt;We don't book her, she just shows up.&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Is it true that Shell is using the show as a cover to smuggle Guatamalan orphan slaves into the country and forcing them to wrestle weasels for snake meat?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: rgb(255, 255, 51);"&gt;Of course not. They're not slaves, they're interns. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;What's the difference?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 51);"&gt;The quality of the snake meat. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Who owns The Shell Show?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 51);"&gt;Kim Jong-il and the good people of North Korea.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So are you broadcasting subliminal Communist messages to your audience?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 51);"&gt;Don't be silly.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The great Socialist Revolution will unshackle the oppressed masses and topple the Capitalist pigs of the West!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 51);"&gt;Tell it sister.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think Shell might be the father of my baby.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 51);"&gt;Who?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Shell.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 51);"&gt;I think you have the wrong show.

That says "Dr. Phil."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You're not going to get rid of me that easily.
