The Improv Comedy Showcase and Restaurant presents Jon Lajoie.

Between 2001 and 2007, Jon Lajoie assassinated (in a ninja0like fashion) an estimated 40,000 people, and an estimated 9000 fish (in early 2004 demand for assassination was low, so for 3 months he held a part-time job as a fisherman.

In June of 2007, he decided to start making videos and posting them on the Internet. The videos were so well received that he put "assassinating people in a ninja-like fashion" on hold, and began getting drunk all the time. A few months later he decided to only get drunk once in a while and to restart making videos.

Jon Lajoie gained a substantial cult following for his comical Internet videos in 2008. Many of his videos have received millions of views, including, 2 Girls One Cup song, Everyday Normal Guy, and Show Me Your Genitals.
