If you found yourselves camped in front of the TV last night watching Kathy Griffin's latest stand-up special, Straight to Hell, and wondering what it is about the comedian that sends her loyal, mostly gay audiences into hyperventilating fits of laughter over an act comprised of mostly warmed-over showbiz insider gossip, perhaps the above video will help:

It's a shaky (motion-sickness-sensitive and epileptics be warned) YouTube audience video of the To Catch a Predator bit from last night's show, only with all the cussing, racism, and too-dirty-for-basic-cable material included. Still not laughing? Try three shots of Jager and some whippits.
