This is absolutely from a stand-up comedian. I've heard this before. Anyone remember who it was?

It reminds me a lot of this Finnish comedian talking about learning the different uses of the word "ass" in English.

Ass Is the Most Complicated Word in the English Language

Dang. Beat me to the link.

I'm glad others know about Ismo though. =)
