It was Mitch Hedberg joking about getting a receipt for buying a doughnut.
The doughnut joke is a different one I think. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bo5pjBmNyrE
Also, for someone who died going on 2 decades ago, he's really got some staying power; I see kids discovering him and liking him to this day.
About 10 years ago working in the Comerica building in downtown Dallas (you can see it in the skyline photos) I parked in a garage connected by hallways and tunnels to stay out of the heat or rain. There were two sets of escalators in this route. One set broke. Management put up a sign on a stand stating “Escalator out of service” and within about a week somebody opened Word or PowerPoint set it to landscape, printed out “Escalator temporarily stairs, sorry for the convenience” on a piece of paper and taped it over their sign.
I’m sure I snapped a picture of it for the week or so it was left up.
