(HAHAHAHAHA i.e. You Can't Win Over People With Happy Faces)

Great things happen in the world when you walk around and wanted to buy crayons for small earthlings but couldn't because you have only 20 bucks in your pocket.
In a matter of minutes though, things get altered. You are shown hilarious pictures and anecdotes straight from God's kitchen. The recipes are great and worth the chow. Late to realize that you are surrounded in times like these with extraordinary performers. No, honest performers.
Why they are damn good, I'll tell you why:
1. It is very easy for them to own up. No masks needed.
2. They have good words even to their bitterest enemies without even cussing (astonished by the realization).
3. When they mimic the sensible people (like the proper English cadence with mouth projections-----it is like greeting Dan Akroyd "good morning" in person), it beats Chiquito in his most brilliant flicks. But they still praise : "She is really intelligent."
4. They go further when copied. Thus, conversant with all modes of music, they have tried Philippine dialects, Middle Eastern, Afrikaan (you must hear this: can inflame your funny bone in seconds). They are very difficult to copy when they do musical chameleons. I am sure they could leave this medium and perhaps try pantomime in the years to come.
5. They are frank, direct to the point, blunt.
Self-deprecation is not an option. When it is part of the ongoing parody, it makes life a little bit easier and fuller.
And yes, they are really goodlooking if only because they intone it fluidly.
