Doug Stanhope
From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia
Douglas Verve Stanhope (born on December 25th 1929) is an American comedian and former three-time World Heavyweight Champion. To date, he remains the only man to have won the San Francisco Comedy Competition and the linear boxing heavyweight championship three times in a row. Douglas Stanhope also known as “The Verve” or “Version Daddy” was the winner of an Olympic Free Style Rap gold medal in 2003. Stanhope was also crowned "Comedian of the Century" by a small group of drunken friends in Death Valley California after a four day CIA mind control experiment know as MKULTRA.
Douglas V. Stanhope was born on a planet that orbits the star Sirius-B in the belt of Orion. He was named after his Father, Marcel Anthony Francis Sr., who was named after the 19th century atheist and politician Abraham Lincoln. Stanhope changed his name after joining the Coast Guard in 1964, subsequently converting to Freemasonry in 1975 as a 33rd Degree Masonic Grand Master.
Stanhope is known for his comedic style, which he described as "I don’t know. I’m just fucking around". Throughout his career Stanhope made a name for himself with haiku poetry, as well as having swift feet and taunting tactics. While Stanhope was renowned for his fast, sharp wit, he also had a great capacity for consuming massive amounts of alcohol and displaying great courage and the ability to take a punch throughout his career.

edit Early Career and Olympic Gold
Stanhope was first directed toward standup comedy by an obscure blackjack dealer from Las Vegas Nevada named Ryan Hennigan who encountered the then twelve-year-old Douglas Stanhope fuming over the fact that his bicycle had been stolen. However, Stanhope also began open mic with Fred Becker, an African-American amateur comedian working at the local community center. In this way, Stanhope could make $4 a week on Tomorrow's Comedians, a local, weekly TV show that Hennigan hosted, while benefiting from the LSD the more experienced Becker supplied. Both Hennigan and Becker continued working with “The Verve” throughout his career.
Stanhope’s last amateur show was at the Mic and Stool in Chicago. Under God’s guidance, Doug Stanhope went on to charge club owners for his live performances as a confirmed Capitalist and Libertarian. After reading an unauthorized biography on Mahatma Gandhi, he then moved to Los Angeles, California with three models from the show Girls Gone Wild. Inspired by the fact that Gandhi had shared his bed for a number of years with two young women to test his self control, Stanhope was caught on video saying, “If Gandhi had two. I’ll fucking try three.” The actual audio on this clip was later re-dubbed by Joseph R. Francis to say, “Show me where babies feed!” This became a Girls Gone Wild franchise by Francis who is a known coke addicted pornographer. Joseph R. Francis is also fully gay. Seriously, he sucks more cock than a chickenhose.
It is well known that Stanhope has never participated in any Olympic event, nor any Special Olympic event. However, he has bet on them extensively and often with fellow comedian Andy Andrist who always bets on the "kid wearing rubber boots [because] it's a wet track, he's a mudda, he looks like a mudda..."
edit Doug's Legacy
Doug Stanhope now lives in Bisbee, Arizona. I mean most people know where he lives but no one actually goes there because he freaks the fuck out of everyone. His head is too big for his body. His legs are skinny and he doesn't really talk much. What's that mean? He's a fucking human-alien hybrid. And he doesn't even actually do jokes on stage. It's not like he's even talking sometimes. His lips don't move but everyone knows what he saying. It's telepathy or some shit like a Mr. Spock mind meld. The audience laughs because he sneaks into the crowd and pinches their neck somewhere. Like a Karate Master Doug invents new moves everyday in his spiral note book. He works out on the punch bag. He keeps saying absurdly simple things on stage that seem obvious to the Alien Gate Keepers but no human want's to talk about it in real life or repeat his jokes in public.
Since it is illegal for aliens to have sex with humans, Doug's alien hybrid status has branded him a criminal in most of the galaxy. In lieu of formal charges or an actual trial, Doug has agreed to live out his life sentence on Earth, though he does maintain an office on the Secret Moon Base. Doug insists that locating his office on the moon was a logistical decision, and that he has no regular non-sexual interactions with Margaret Thatcher.
Douglas Verve Stanhope never seems to have a bad show or what most comics would call eating it. "Eating It" is actually a phrase coined by Mr. V. Stanhope one night as he was watching James Inman in Kansas City at Famous Johnny's. Inman walked off the stage to a silenced audience and Doug said, "You were eating it up there". James asked, "What's up with that?". Stanhope said, "Eating it means you were pulling out your cock and bending down on yourself to 'bite' or 'consume' your own genitalia. The crowd reacted to your cock eating bit as a bored group of stoned snow boarders". Doug "The Verve Master" then climbed on stage and began some rant on the Bible, death, the CIA, Cancer, God and all the different holes to fuck a woman in and the crowd was whipped back into a frenzy. Later that night Doug formed a group of worthless comedians called the Unbookables.
edit Controversy
After the events of 9-11 Doug Stanhope wrote a series of controversial jokes on terrorism about his mom putting on a backpack filled with dynamite and blowing up a Subway sandwich shop because he couldn't order a breakfast sandwich. There were usually more than 40 people walking out of each show. Soon there were strange "fans" attending his performances who wore shiny black shoes and laughed at inappropriate times. It is believed that Mr. Doug Verve Stanhope had a COINTELPRO file as long as his right arm. It is common knowledge that more than half of all of Doug's "friends" are undercover Homeland Security agents. This doesn't seem to have any effect at all. He still says whatever he wants on stage. Attempts have been made on his life but the situations were taken care of discretely and in a professional manner. He has hired and is protected around the clock buy four ex-Navy Seals trained in counter espionage who can take care of any situation.
edit Panamint Festival
In 2002 Doug Stanhope was booked at a small one nighter at an obscure town in Death Valley called Panamint. Very few people showed up at his first appearance yet he vowed to come back every year until an Unidentified Flying Object landed or someone died. The party grew exponentially each year and has now become a major American social holiday. One of the top destination cities in May from 2002 to 2008 voted by The Lonely Planet Travel Guide has been Panamint California. Located in the desert somewhere in Death Valley attracting large numbers of party goers with the famous Panamint strip being closed to vehicles and buses for four days straight, the party is filled with fans, locals, celebrities and undercover narcotics officers.
In the past 5 years the "Dropping of the Pig" from on top of the cell phone tower in Panamint, broadcast to all of America, is a major component of the Panamint celebration. The 11,875-pound (5,386 kg), 12-foot (3.7 m) diameter indoor pot bellied pig located high above Panamint is lowered, starting at 11:59:00pm and reaching the bottom of its tower 60 seconds later, at the stroke of midnight sometime in May (12:00:00am). It's referred to as "the big dead pig that Andy killed"
Bands from as far as Finland come to Panamint and perform the ritual. The song Burn and Rob by the Mattoid has become a popular song to sing at midnight on Panamint Eve for the pig drop’.
“Soon all I wanted to do was go out and get drunk”
“Drunk”
“Go out and get drunk and take lots of drugs”
“Drugs”
“Take lots of drugs and have lots of sex”
“Sex”
“Then go out and kill everyone in my neighborhood”.
--The Mattoid
By this time the crowd will begin dancing in circles high on a combination of alcohol and other drugs. This would go on till six in the morning. Most people were dressed up in space suits waiting for aliens and some are just spinning around singing Elvis Costello is GOD naked praying for mushrooms, Mescaline or Ritalin. Some people go out of their mind. They fuck and drink urine and Doug has been known to piss on people who stay on stage too long or start babbling incoherent gibberish.
