Emo Phillips at a Glance
Emo Philips (born Phil Soltanec) is an American entertainer and comedian born in the Chicago suburb of Downers Grove.Emo Philips - IMDB Biography Much of his standup comedy stems from the use of paraprosdokians and garden path sentences spoken in a wandering falsetto tone of voice and a confused, childlike delivery of his material to produce the intended comic timing in a manner invoking the 'wisdom of children' or the idiot savant.
The funniest things Emo Phillips has ever said!
funniest as decided by me

Some mornings it just doesn't seem worth it to gnaw through the leather straps.
I go from stool to stool in singles bars hoping to get lucky, but there's never any gum under any of them.
Probably the toughest time in anyone's life is when you have to murder a loved one because they're the devil.
My girlfriend said, "Emo, I'm seeing another man." I said, "Well, try rubbing your eyes or something."

I got a letter from the IRS. Apparently I owe them $800. So I sent them a letter back. I said, "If you'll remember, I fastened my return with a paper clip, which according to your very own latest government Pentagon spending figures will more than make up for the difference.
