Aziz Ansari's rants about everyday occurrences are tight enough to send us laughing ourselves into a near death experience. Is that why his current stand-up tour is called Buried Alive? We don’t know, but we sure as hell want to see him regardless. Yes, we'd risk being throw into an early grave. The comedian and star of NBC's Parks and Recreation series can make a simple trip to Cold Stone Creamery into humorous encounter. Keeping that in mind, Ansari, who has Carolina ties — he was born on Colombia, SC and grew up in Bennettsville — is an even better at making celebrity sightings and social functions into a mockery. Take for instance, his commentary on rapper 50 Cent's discovery that grapefruits are um, not grapes. We're still laughing about the oranges.
