This is absolutely from a stand-up comedian. I’ve heard this before. Anyone remember who it was?

I can’t claim it was him, but I read it in Carlin’s voice

Either him or Seinfeld? Feels like the stand-up bit at the beginning of one of the early episodes.

It reminds me a lot of this Finnish comedian talking about learning the different uses of the word “ass” in English.

Ass Is the Most Complicated Word in the English Language
