About Oliver Coleman – Sublime
Once an old man on a winding road in the middle of a dark forest gave Oliver a magic microphone. He told him that everything he said through it would be the funniest thing anyone’s heard, and all that he needed in return was his soul. Oliver said, “throw in a JB Hi-Fi voucher and you got a deal!”.
Now Oliver has no soul, but his jokes are sublime.
