Here's last night's winners, and find out who Bostonist thinks got robbed after the jump.

Preliminary Round Five
The Winners: Paul D'Angelo and David Powell

In the fifth round, the brainiacs represented. D'Angelo, a former Massachusetts Assistant DA, is old-school, started with classic marriage humor. He then did a riff on the "kids these days" joke, in which he described his 2-year-old godson, who has figured out the computer, but not the toilet: "He's a genius! He's brilliant! He's shitting his pants!"

David Powell stepped on stage looking geeky. Perhaps because he is an MIT geek who claims not to get much. He admitted, "Sex is my Olympics. It comes around once every four years. It's an honor to participate. And then I have to take a blood test afterwards."

Preliminary Round Six
The Winners: Hannibal, Robert Mac, Levi MacDougall (tie)

Hannibal was first out, and he made it through his entire set without making a single joke about fava beans, which is reason enough for him to make it. Hannibal won Bostonist over by waxing rhapsodic about the Courier font's magical ability to expand a term paper.

When Robert Mac appeared, our first thought was, "Oh, great. Dry hipster humor. As if we haven't had enough of that." But he managed to wriggle his way out of our expectations with his solution to the immigration problem--a "shorter border order."

Speaking of dry hipsters, Levi MacDougall favors country-western shirts and delivers humor of the "I never looked at it that way" variety. Bostonist wishes him the best of luck with his new country song, "Hanging Upside Down With Tears on My Forehead."

Who Got Robbed, Round 5: Jim Lauletta, Kelly MacFarland

Maybe Lauletta's Dunkies-laced humor was too Boston-specific. Then again, it is the Boston Comedy Festival. Oh, well. His routine about what happens when he impersonates Chewbacca at the drive-thru was definitely original.

MacFarland, who was on The Biggest Loser and has lost a considerable amount of weight, focused on gym humor. That routine could seem tired, but she filled it with abundant sound effects, such as how her boobs clang together like cymbals, which announces her arrival to skinny bitches on the road.

Who Got Robbed, Round 6: Orlando Baxter, Tina Giorgi

Bostonist is a sucker for teacher humor. Worcester's Orlando Baxter explained that breaking up a girlfight is tough to do--especially if naughty bits pop out. Tina Giorgi, whose approach was much drier than Baxter's, told the audience that she just couldn't hold back during a parent-teacher conference. When a mom asked her if there was any way her kid would pass the next test, Giorgi replied, "Yeah. If he eats it."
