post comedy show syndrome

Saturday night Josh took me to a super funny comedy show in SLC, James P. Connolly, and we had a fantastic time. We snacked on nachos and laughed so much!

When the show was over and the comedian had been cheered for and admired, everyone around us began suffering from "Post Comedy Show Syndrome." It was pretty funny.

Hm? What's that? What is PCS Syndrome you ask?

Well, let's look it up!


Post Comedy Show Syndrome /pōst/ˈkämədē/SHō/ˈsinˌdrōm/
Noun

1. When a person or group of people, suddenly believing themselves to be as funny as the comedian they just saw, begin to tell their own lame jokes while mimicking the speaking style and facial expressions of the comedian.
2. When people begin to preform very ridiculous and extreme behaviors, in a comedic routine style, just after a comedy show in order to receive laughs from their peers.

I do that all the time! Even after listening to one, especially Jim Gaffigan or Brian Regan
