How to be a comedian: (according to Tim Hawkins himself): Live life , take notes , and tell strangers!

sometimes entertainers use profanity as filler while they are thinking of the next thing to say .... somewhat like " ummm" or "yeahbut" or other fillers.. LOL I suppose you just need to know your audience and what they enjoy and prefer to hear.... that's the bottom line !
After my ex-wife walked out on us, I had to be very "frugal" with my money while raising two sons. One way was to buy a large box of their favorite breakfast cereal, Fruit Loops; save the box and refill it with the cheep bag brand.;the Fruit Loops knock off. My sons never knew the difference. This is another lesson in, "Never Let Your Left Hand Know What Your Right Hand Is Doing."

When my oldest turned 13, she wanted to go to a Tim Hawkins show for her birthday, so that’s what we did! And this definitely brings back memories of that night, we laughed so hard! She even made a poster telling him she chose to celebrate her birthday with him, and he acknowledged it. She definitely had a great birthday that year!

Tim Hawkins is the funniest ( and clean) comedian we've ever seen. My husband and I are decided groupies, for sure. Thanks Tim for keeping us in stitches🤣
We were pretty poor growing up. We always had good food to eat as my family had a huge garden and raised beef, chickens and rabbits. But I never got the stuff that other kids had in their lunchboxes or what I saw on the commercials during Saturday morning cartoons. I can still remember when Capri Suns came out I wanted one so bad. Years later I bought a box of Capri Suns. I drank like 6. I was 17 and used my first paycheck from pizza hut. 😊

@@kareninalabama I'm currently mowing 7 properties, and the leaf blower I use is from Aldi. It's a cheap little battery one. Granted, the battery doesn't last long enough when I do the church property, because the parking lot is large, but that little leaf blower does fine for all the residential places I cut. So, absolutely you can get some nice gadgets from there.
Hydrox was actually started before Oreo and always tried to live up to the success of it's younger brother. The founders of both cookies were also brothers

Amen Hal to your Dr. Thunder comment. And a fun fact most people don't realize is that a large percentage of generic sodas are made by the exact same companies who make the name brands, often in the exact same factories using the same machines and same ingredients. Quite often the only difference between the two is simply the package, name, and advertising, and yet, obviously it works because people are fooled all the time into thinking the name brand tastes better, even when it's the same thing.
We hardly ever got Pop Tarts, we got Toster Pasteries or Toast Tarts And no, they didn't toast right, at all Either they were under cooked or burnt

I met him, he's a great guy. I remember when my mom was watching Tim Hawkins at our friends house, and I walked in, and I said "hey I know him." My mom didn't believe me😅😅, until she was doing laundry, and she saw one of my shirts that had his autograph on it😅😅
Mom didn't but Shasta, she bought Fresca. That way, she knew us kids wouldn't touch soda with a 10-foot pole. This is back in the late '60s early '70s, before they made it taste "drinkable."
Save more money by doing generic when you can! Inflation is crazy right now!

This made me laugh out loud. I have to say though, I loved Hydrox back in the day!
0:36 hahaha. Yep....that's Aldi. hahaha. We shop there. LOL.
Fun fact! Hydrox were the original sandwich cookie. After a falling out between the guys who created it one went on to start the national biscuit company (nabisco) and created the Oreo as a direct competitor and even bought shelf space and told their stockers to put Oreos up front and hydrox in back. The whole story is a rather interesting feud, I recommend looking it up!
Flashbacks for sure! Hilarious!
My favorite comedian is making me laugh again!! 😂
I want a pop, pop, pop...I want a Shasta! Good stuff! I actually have a 12 pack of Dr. Thunder in my fridge right now! I grew up on the generic groceries in the black and white package (and I still buy the store brand whenever possible...what can I say, I'm a sucker for a "Great Value"). They even had generic cigarettes and beer in the black and white packaging way back when. Those were the days!
I love ezekiel bread…Lol. That’s ok Tim how about powdered milk…that what we drank growing up. A can of Campbell soup divided between 4 kids. Plus a half of peanut butter sandwich. That’s how you stay skinny. My mom made cookies called Rocks. They tasted like hard rocks. She always over baked them. David could of killed Goliath with those suckers. Who needs rocks, just my moms cookies. 😝🤪😋😂❤️ Have a blessed day everyone! ❤️👍☘️☘️👍❤️
😂so good!
I’m here because I watched a video that was 13 years old and so funny and true I wanted to see if he was still around. I sent it to all my friends. It was called the government can. I’m glad I found this channel

Thank God for Tim Ha-Ha-Hawkins! (This is gold!)
Pretty funny bits.
I still have an Albertson's that have those grey doors. For years it was do bad you had to keep every part of your close away from everything while CV you were trying to see, wash your hands, at the same time praying that no one will come through the door with a broken lock 😳
Hydrox cookies tasted way better than Oreo. They just had a name that sounded like they were made in a chemistry lab. Unfortunately, to me, Oreos taste like they came from a chemistry lab!
It has to be Shasta! I loved their Root Beer!
Remember when generic foods were on black and white boxes?I’m writing this as I drink my Dr. thunder from pic n save lol
We had Fruity Os!
Funny I laughed all the way through
A good 'switcheroo" is buying ground turkey instead of ground beef, since it's much çheaper and healthier! Don't let your kids see you cook the turkey since it turns white, not brown and they will catch on. I made spaghetti, chili, sloppy joes, casseroles etc with ground turkey for YEARS, and none of the family had a clue 😁 They always mmmmmed through the whole meal
In Australia we grew up with either homebrand or black & gold

Saw Tim on Thursday in Toccoa GA. Hilarious as usual. Touches every heart with laughter. Funniest Bit ever was his description of his previous jobs!!
I find it funny when I hear people talk about Dr. Thunder and Shasta.. As a kid, I would specifically ask my parents to get Dr. Thunder, and as a teen, my family moved to a place right down the road from a David's, and I fell in love with Shasta. And I still to this day, partially to save money, but partially because it's what I love, I usually by Dr. K from the Kroger I work at. I still drink the name brand, but store brand soda will always have a place in my heart.

Hydrox were better than Oreos. Fight me.

Hydrox were made 9 years before Oreos. The chocolate wafer was made with dark chocolate. Nabisco was a conglomerate of bakeries National Biscuit Company. Sunshine was bought by Leaf.
