Is there any chance you can explain that phrase? I've heard it a lot but I'm American and don't understand what it means - probably b/c I've never heard it finished so I can know what they keep implying with it.

Courtney Buras he’s basically making fun of himself subtly. A person could see someone acting stupidly in the street and say to a friend “what are they like” meaning “what are they doing” so he’s basically saying “what am I doing I’m being silly” (for sticking his thumb out like a hitch hiker to a limo when clearly they wouldn’t stop for him normally)

The story itself may not be the very greatest I've ever heard, but true, there haven't been many good storytellers like him on the show. Most people just don't know how to effectively sell their stories (or themselves), regardless of the punchline. So thumbs up for James, the limo guy!! 😄
