Why He's On The Site: Florentine's DVD, Meet
The Creeps, features some of the most cringe worthy pranks
ever seen...Florentine became famous portraying a retarded boy
in his classic "Terrorizing Telemarketers" CDs. The
character then morphed into the incredibly popular "Special
Ed" on Comedy Central's Crank Yankers...Florentine's
act consists of him talking about the fucked up things he's done
to others and how twisted he can be...Florentine & Rev. Bob
Levy guided a young Jim Norton early on in his career and are
all still close friends...One of the greatest things I've ever
witnessed in life was watching him & Norton playing the
"You Dropped Something" game on the Comedy Cellar boat
cruise
