Incredibly enough, there ARE laughs to be had here as he holds up a mirror to our everyday lives and picks apart locked-up retail store shelves, dating, security guards around self-checkout lanes, poor service at the gun range (where people practice murder) and the immediate anger a ringing phone can trigger.
