What is it, Rich, we on fire again?

What? What? Hey.''

And I'd be kinda scared

about today, man...

'cause women, we're lucky they f*** us

'cause they got them machines.

You ever seen 'em? They got numbers

on 'em. Plug them boys in.

And you be standing there

with just a dick, right?

''Tell me when

it's my turn, will ya?''

''Uh, that's all right.

Thank you. Never mind.

I'll come back tomorrow.''

Women know they got the p*ssy, man.

They know we like it too.

They know it. I mean, they know.

The bottom line:
Women know.

I got the p*ssy

And it's good

'Cause there ain't no such thing

as bad p*ssy, right?

If there are ladies here tonight

think they got a bad p*ssy...

I'd like to see you

after the show.

I'd like to give

a second opinion.

I'd sure want some water, but I don't

wanna drink none of that sh*t now.

You got me scared.

Spring water? Rainwater?

What is this little bug in it?

- Thank you. What's your name?

- Luanne.

Luanne, take your ass

back to your seat.

Thank you. Thank you,

Luanne, very much.

You're just--

That's a very kind thing to do.

I can't get this little

motherfuckin' thing out.

See, I'm very crazy about sh*t.

When sh*t in somethin',

I like to go, ''Hey.''

Thank you, Luanne,

very much.

No! Don't!

Thank you, Luanne.

That's--

- Can I get a kiss?

- No, baby. You might have herpes.

I don't wanna be

f***ing around.

No, sirree, Bob.

Now they got that herpes

and sh*t going around.

That makes me

be very careful,Jack.

I wanna examine the p*ssy

real good now.

Don't women do that?

If you gonna have a one-night stand,

don't you be very cautious?

It's like, ''Put the dick

right here in my hand.''

Right? Get that jeweler's glass out

and, ''Just a minute.''

'Cause they got some sh*t out there,

make your dick look like a foot.

For a long time.

I'm not lyin'. You look down, look like

a little baby's foot hanging there...

walking up your leg

and sh*t.

No, you gotta be very careful.

That's why I--

I go to public toilets, man,

I'd be watching them motherfuckers...

because I know some sh*t

in there waiting on me.

I'd be real careful.

One thing about a public toilet

is if somebody recognize my ass.

You know, 'cause you could go

in the toilet all your life--

You go in the toilet

and take a sh*t and nobody say nothin'.

They may make a face

when you leave, right?

But they see me, they start talkin',

''Richard Pryor!

That was you in there shittin'?

Man, you don't never

need to sh*t in public.

Hey, everybody, come here.

Richard Pryor is in here shittin'!''

And they got them--

You ever go into them urinals?

Ladies probably never seen this.

It's got them big urinals and sh*t.

And the men go in there and

stand right up in the urinal...

like they hidin' their sh*t

or somethin'.

They'd be right up

in there like--

And look each other

in the eye.

That's the way men look each other

in the eye 'cause you don't look down.

You look down--

''What you looking at?''

Only trouble I have in there,

people wanna meet me.

Be pissing, talking about,

''Richard Pryor!

Oh, sh*t, I'm sorry, man.

Here, shake my hand.''

F*** you!

Everybody be standing up like this and

be cool,Jack,just lookin' in the eye.

Then some big dick motherf***er

come in, right? Stand way back here.

''What's happening, fellas?

You wanna stand to the left?

I'm gonna shake it to the left, pal.

You better move over.''

Good night. I love you.

Richard Pryor

Richard Franklin Lennox Thomas Pryor (December 1, 1940 – December 10, 2005) was an American stand-up comedian, actor, and social critic. Pryor was known for uncompromising examinations of racism and topical contemporary issues, which employed vulgarities and profanity, as well as racial epithets. He reached a broad audience with his trenchant observations and storytelling style, and is widely regarded as one of the greatest and most influential stand-up comedians of all time. Pryor's body of work includes the concert movies and recordings: Richard Pryor: Live & Smokin' (1971), That Nigger's Crazy (1974), ...Is It Something I Said? (1975), Bicentennial Nigger (1976), Richard Pryor: Live in Concert (1979), Richard Pryor: Live on the Sunset Strip (1982), and Richard Pryor: Here and Now (1983). As an actor, he starred mainly in comedies such as Silver Streak (1976), but occasionally in dramas, such as Paul Schrader's Blue Collar (1978), or action films, such as Superman III (1983). He collaborated on many projects with actor Gene Wilder. Another frequent collaborator was actor/comedian/writer Paul Mooney. Pryor won an Emmy Award (1973) and five Grammy Awards (1974, 1975, 1976, 1981, and 1982). In 1974, he also won two American Academy of Humor awards and the Writers Guild of America Award. The first-ever Kennedy Center Mark Twain Prize for American Humor was presented to him in 1998. He was listed at number one on Comedy Central's list of all-time greatest stand-up comedians. In 2017, Rolling Stone ranked him first on its list of the 50 best stand-up comics of all time. more…
