Problem solved. But not really.

It’s hard enough to do comedy in your own language, but to do it in another requires ridiculous levels of confidence. As a language nerd, I love the layers of an act like this, both for my admiration at you trying this at all and for providing that funny perspective on how ridiculous my language is.

A very specific situation.

The humor is peak irony+satire. If you were paying really close attention, you'll have a chuckle that he thought he'd never have to say "she sells sea shells by the seashore"; while listening to him having put himself in the position of needing to say it on stage. Amazing. It's so perfect it is either serendipitous or genius-clever.

ever since i saw him do the one where he says ha ta ta ta ta i have been obsessed with him. his jokes are funny, and his accent and broken english makes it even more hilarious

This man is brilliant!

*FUN FACT: There is a person upon which this expression is based. A woman by the name of Mary Anning (born 1799). She collected fossilized seashells from Jurassic Coast in England, which, back then, had a lot of fossils in it. The fossilized seashells were dug up and sold to tourists. So, it was not a bad business plan after all. It was just supplementary income for a poor family but not a bad business idea.*

@The Gooberment-Sucks Some of his Finnish material is so Finland based, he can't maybe translate it. Because in those jokes there are people known in Finland, but that wouldn't say anything for foreigners. Or Finnish public servants work questioned, like road management. Well, that might be translatable - but the problems there relate to a northern country with permafrost problems in the road maintenance - so the problems are pretty local then. But road repairs happen to evry country I guess. Or are wished for in some places :)

Ismo is so funny love his skits: Here history of this tongue twister Mary Anning(Victorian Fossilist) is the person this Tongue Twister was created for. Mary Anning used to sell fossils by the sea shore. She was a scientist and had gone down in history as a famous fossilist nobody knows about. This tongue twister was originally a song, with words by Terry Sullivan and music by Harry Gifford, written in 1908, inspired by Mary Anning's life: She sells sea-shells on the sea-shore The even changed her name to Sally "Sally sells seashells by the seashore. She sells seashells on the seashell shore. The seashells she sells are seashore shells, Of that I'm sure."
