    Jim Gaffigan at Chicago Theatre

    By now, anyone with a modicum of interest in stand-up comedy is at least remotely familiar with Jim Gaffigan, the Midwestern-bred comedian whose laziness-based humor has tiptoed between highlighting the absurdities of consumerism (see his "Hot Pockets" routine) and rationalizing the pleasures of gluttony (hence eight minutes of bacon jokes). No less ubiquitous is Jim Gaffigan the actor: He's frequently a pleasantly unexpected cameo, from Law & Order to The Flight Of The Conchords. That said, stand-up remains Gaffigan’s bread and butter, and with material from last year’s King Baby album/DVD in his repertoire, expect an enormous slew of foods and restaurants to be equally lambasted and glorified. Even a “bread and butter” routine wouldn’t be too surprising.
