I think a lot of people don't realize this is one monologue among many and this is one of the first monologues in the show. It was meant to be in your face, really "infect" the audience, and it wasn't about being funny but make people stand back; critically think about what he is saying here and for the rest of the show.
By far the best of the monologue shows. Love the one with the stockbroker at the dealers house. The dealer keeps calling out for his girlfriend to get them some beers that never come and at one point the dealer says, “ she’s a stripper so she thinks she’s better than other people”. Totally subverts the norm. The piece de resistance is the epic central story about how the dealer and his friend just took off one day on their hogs and didn’t come back for three years and in the climax the dealer, referencing an earlier tangent about status skiing destinations says, “ now how can you compare that to skiing?” Pounding Nail is a masterpiece!
this is the biggest pile of nonsense i've ever seen and I find it offensive it's even possible people can make a living from this. If you people wanna see a real performance just look up a guy called Bill Hicks. I mean I appreciate not everybody finds the same things entertaining but for crying out loud this is ridiculous.

Magic. Cheers for posting this classic Bogosian.
Brilliant. This is the best kind of Bogosian in my humble opinion.
Pounding Nails In The Floor is so fucking awesome.
