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

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

Dang. Beat me to the link.

I'm glad others know about Ismo though. =)

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