60 People On ‘The Best Lame Joke’ They Know. Stand-up Shots: Comedians at a Glimpse. Myqkaplan, Imgur In our on-going endeavor to introduce you to some of the best and brightest stand-up comedians in the business, today we shall be taking a look at one of the lesser known subreddits on Reddit.com, StandUpShots .
