It is something Gavin regularly references on GOML when talking about comedians. He says that only a tiny percentage of people are funny enough to do comedy, and only a tiny percentage of those people have "the sprinkles" which is an ability to just be funny effortlessly. The example Gavin usually uses is John Belushi and his ability to get a laugh by just putting something in his mouth or moving his eyebrows a little bit.
I’m naive, what’s the sprinkles
