I saw that and it made me laugh. That toaster has no hands. How's he gonna choke a bitch? With his eyes?
I first heard this line on Chappelle's Show. It was during a sketch with Wayne Brady. Here's the details from that fount of disputable knowledge, The Wikipedia:
Wayne Brady's Show - After Dave Chappelle quits the show in an opening segment that very intriguingly mirrored the contract negotiations for the aborted third season, Wayne Brady takes over as host and is ordered to emcee the remaining episodes of the series since Chappelle had already filmed the remaining sketches (in an ironic twist, this actually occurred when Comedy Central aired the three "Lost Episodes" of the aborted Season 3). After several segments showing Dave at home, missing being on TV (and having his friends, such as Big Boi, suddenly turn their backs on him), Chappelle returns to the show and confronts Wayne Brady. The ensuing confrontation leads to the airing of a flashback to a night of misadventure involving the two that portrays Wayne Brady (contrary to his friendly public image) as a murderous (he snaps a cop's neck), pimping and seriously disturbed psychopath (a parody of the film Training Day). The sketch spawned the lines "Is Wayne Brady gonna have to choke a bitch?" and "I'm Wayne Brady, bitch!" (In the Season Two bonus features, it's revealed that Brady was reluctant to say the "choke a bitch" line, even though it was the most important line in the sketch). The skit also contains a popular clip from a previous bit, Negrodamus (about a black Nostradamus), wherein Negrodamus tells someone who asks about Brady's success, "White people love Wayne Brady, because he makes Bryant Gumbel look like Malcolm X." Chappelle has said that this clip was the inspiration for the Wayne Brady sketch, with Brady referencing Paul Mooney's comment as though it may explain his violent criminal behaviour in front of a horrified Dave.
That sketch sure made me laugh. Wayne Brady actually never chokes a bitch. But you know he would. You can hear Wayne offer to choke a bitch at "Is Wayne Brady gonna have to choke a bitch?" dot com. You can view the whole sketch on YouTube. In an ideal world no one would need chokin', but here on Planet Earth you could rub your hands raw puttin' the choke on. Someone should invent a choking machine to prevent arm fatigue.
