Laugh at a vegan

If you want a vegan to laugh at, stop laughing at me and look up Myq Kaplan instead. The comedian (pronounced Mike Kaplan, as per http://myqkaplan.com) proves that despite anything you’ve read in this microcolumn and/or popular belief, vegans can be (intentionally) funny. The bespectacled Brooklynite smartass won 2009’s New York’s Funniest Stand-Up competition and was a finalist on Last Comic Standing in 2010. He was recently in Sacramento at the Punch Line Comedy Club and on News10’s Sacramento & Co. cracking up hosts Jodie Moreno and Scott Moak (http://tinyurl.com/myqnews10). Check out the self-admitted dork’s comedy album Vegan Mind Meld, available online.
