Quirk Books everyman/Ministry of Jokes jokester/dude we see walking around Old City all the time Doogie Horner's making his way across the vast expanse of the Internet today for his awkwardly successful America's Got Talent audition. Before he began his 90-second standup spot, host Nick Cannon warned him that each comedian who'd come before him had been booed off the stage, but that didn't deter our bearded son of Philadelphia, no: He screamed some jokes (about sex with eagles and other matters) to a crowd of haters (whom he repeatedly called "horrible people") and emerged victorious, somehow. That is, Howie Mandel really liked him. Or maybe he was just envious of that magnificent beard. Here's the clip, spied first at Best Week Ever:
