At 0:50, he says "Only one percent of the human race is white." I don't know if he was kidding or that was supposed to be hyperbole (it seemed like he was being serious, like that was the fact t that set up the joke).
The population, at the time of this clip, was about 6.5 billion. There are about 65 million white people in Poland alone. Most figures I'ver seen say there are about 1.3 billion caucasians in the world, or about 20%.
The first clip was the most early 90s looking thing I've ever seen.
Also, I think he did that bit about the hairbrush gesture in his latest special. It's okay, I guess; I'm suprised it's still around twenty years later. Especially when you consider how much his routine has evolved. In these old clips he's just a standard 90s observations about everyday life comedian. Now he's the king of low self esteem and self loathing cynacism.
This was Louis early years and his style has evolved alot since then, every comic goes through this look at videos of a young Todd Barry his style is so different
One thing I noticed was he didn't stumble on his words much back then. It seemed he was trying to be more of a typical fast talking comic. What I mean is... he has really developed his own style since this, and it's fucking hilarious. Go Lou!
@Fistwagon As a young comedian the reason he has slowed down his style instead of being so fast is because he maybe only got a 10min set and has 4 jokes he wants to do, so he needs to rush through them rather quickly
I guess he's retired the bit at 2:15 by now

Colin Quinn intros him at the start. Quinn's up there with Hartmand and CK as a comedy genius.

He looks older in the 1990 clip than the 1991 clip towards the end. That was nice though.
