He had a Special on Showtime in 1993. It was called "Ron Shock, Glad to be Here." I had it taped on VHS, and I messed it up taping something from Jeff Foxworthy and it ran into the Ron Shock video. I'm totally bummed. I would have put it on UA-cam.
ABBREVIATION: a shortened or contracted form of a word or phrase, used to represent the whole, as Dr. for Doctor, U.S. for United States, lb. for pound. ACRONYM: a word formed from the INITIAL letters or groups of letters of words in a set phrase or series of words, as Wac from Women's Army Corps, OPEC from Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries PEOPLE WOULD RATHER NOT TAKE THE TIME TO LEARN ANYTHING, THAT'S THE POINT!! PEOPLE DON'T ACTIVELY SEEK KNOWLEDGE!! AND THE NEWS IS ALL B.S.
ok so what to the letters I.M.M.A. stand for, since an acronym uses the FIRST LETTERS OF A GROUP OF WORDS an abbreviation on the other hand is just a shortened version that DOESN'T SPECIFY WHICH LETTERS of which words are used, DO YOU UNDERSTAND NOW, that is exactly what my last post said if you would have read and understood the whole thing i even CAPITALIZED the word INITIAL (meaning first) in my last post You aren't even worth the time if you couldn't figure that out the first time
If you actually read what I wrote, both examples you give fall under the ABBREVIATION definition not the acronym definition, once again proving the point I was making in the first place. OPEC and WAC were examples of acronym. you should really consider maybe, reading a book.
I am not a troll, I am a man that has very strong beliefs in the fact that people need to wake the fuck up, PLEASE. I may sound angry, but I am forgiving, It just gets a little old seeing that man is responsible for his own demise. This world needs a change and that starts with, ENLIGHTENMENT. Question everything, don't just take what is fed to you by the media and the government. This country needs an intellectual revolution and that starts by Thinking for yourself
@samuraiofsamuraiedo So have you actually heard of or seen Bill Hicks. My point, which you apparently didn't get, is the fact that the world is getting lazier and dumber by the day. And it is thanks to people like this. "Don't make me think, just entertain me" has become the new motto of mankind. I'm on a little higher level than just pissing you off, Typing shit like that just makes you look stupid, which if you actually enjoy this video is the "cool" thing to do.
@ILuvRio4ever Ha ha, king of comedy? really? Is that what this world has come to. PLEASE!! Do me a favor, save your self from years of misery and watch some Bill Hicks. If you understand his point, you will be a better person. I am not being rude, I'm just speaking the truth. Thank You
The clips of him and Hicks and Silva are class. Triple trouble
I have seen this clip about 10 times and I am still laughing my ass off still.
How had I ever not known about him? So glad that someone linked me to this!😆😆😆
Always loved his newspaper stories.
Ron now has T-Shirts on his website! Funny!
RIP, Ron :(
This was filmed at the Improv and the thing about Ron's humor is that he was always a Master...and his humor is timeless! You can't fake funny!
so that was the mom on the wonder years. 2:50
It had to be, right?
2:51 Kevin Arnold's mom!
for some great bill hicks stories told by ron shock, type in "the bill hicks chronicles" here on you tube.
RIP RON
Such a magnificently performed bit. I imagine a more "adult phrased" version would be even better.
Pure gold. Ron is missed.
This is an awesome story.
Still haven't gone to Mississipi as of 2017.
friend of biill hicks :)
Maybe someday I will shoot a bolt action rifle.
The irony of his first joke is that there's a West, TX in the Eastern half of Texas... Home of an amazing bakery called Czech Stop.
I can guess where the chick at the 38 second mark is from...
Fucking awsome!!!! anyone know if he has any of his own stand up dvd?

The chick at the 39 second mark looks like she's from Mississippi...
I was thinking that
Is that Donnie Iris at 5:50?

What are you talking about? You seem to be having an argument with an imaginary person.
@@Normal1855 Well, it's from 11 fucking years ago, so...
ok so what to the letters I.M.M.A. stand for, since
an acronym uses the FIRST LETTERS OF A GROUP OF WORDS
an abbreviation on the other hand is just a shortened version that
DOESN'T SPECIFY WHICH LETTERS of which words are used,
DO YOU UNDERSTAND NOW, that is exactly what my last post said if you would have read and understood the whole thing i even CAPITALIZED the word INITIAL (meaning first) in my last post You aren't even worth the time if you couldn't figure that out the first time
