Charna Halpern discovered the best way to learn Del's improv secrets wasn't by talking to him. You can read more about that in her books,

"Truth in BJs"

and

"Art by Cummittee"

Women don't actually like to receive oral sex. They just like the feeling of power they get from making men feel grossed out. (And lesbians just haven't had the right man).

The absolute best thing you can do to prepare for an improv show is to smoke a ton of weed, and anyone that says otherwise is a virgin.

Another thing that virgins like to say is that rehearsing is important. If you are going to rehearse, it should be for something that doesn't suck -- not improv, which, as we have previously established, sucks.

The best thing improv has going for it is that audiences are stupid.

I would just like to say that curtis is the best at this thread. Also, I'd like to say that most improv skits are pre-planned but still aren't funny while stand up is always highly good and funny.
They call me Dollar Bill 'cause I always make sense.

there is no difference between a sketch and a skit. also, the only purpose of improv is to generate ideas for sketches, and thus premise based improv is always the funniest.

Comparing improv skills to athletic skills is for troglodyte jocks who can't let nerds have anything that's just for nerds.

In hell, they've prepared a special room for Del Close where he will have to pay ten dollars to see people be not funny for all eternity.

He hasn't been put in there yet because they're waiting for Keith Johnstone to die too.
