Show Me Your Wits: Michael Showalter

Actor and comedian Michael Showalter is known for his hilarious standup, as well as his work on projects like The State, Wet Hot American Summer, and Stella. His debut comedy album, Sandwiches & Cats, was released this past November. In a blog-off on Best Week Ever, Michael offered these insights on God, spiritual salvation, and corduroy pants:

"Salvation means being saved spiritually. It’s also an abbreviated name for the place where I go to buy cordoroys. Or sometimes I just like to say, “Sal-vay”. “I’m going to the the Sal-vay to buy some cords.” Sometimes I buy my cords at J. Crew. Sometimes I think that J. Crew is my salvation. Not like the Salvation Army. It’s literally my spiritual salvation. Nothing brings me closer to God than a nice blue J. Crew wool sweater. In those moments, when I’m wearing a blue J. Crew wool sweater, I actually feel, and it’s strange to talk about it, but I feel like I’m being enveloped in warmth. It’s possible that the warmth is being provided but it’s also possible that God is providing the warmth. Who am I to say He’s not? Yes, I said He. Not because I think that God is a He but because “sHe” looks weird on paper."

  • I enjoy you because of all of your labor on this blog. My niece loves going through investigations and it is easy to understand why. We know all relating to the dynamic form you offer sensible things through the blog and in addition inspire participation from others on this concept plus our favorite child is actually becoming educated so much. Take pleasure in the rest of the new year. You’re the one performing a useful job.

  • I do consider all of the concepts you’ve introduced on your post. They’re very convincing and will certainly work. Nonetheless, the posts are too short for starters. Could you please lengthen them a bit from next time? Thanks for the post. Pristina Hotels
