Re: list of funny stand up comedians
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] Dane Cook's comedy central special before he really got famous was hilarious, but I don't like most of his stuff anymore as he is just a giant hack now. [/ QUOTE ] Not only is he completely unfunny, he steals from people. [/ QUOTE ] He is not completely unfunny. His new stuff isn't as good as the old, but he has some good stuff. That video is pretty lame. Even if he did get those jokes from somewhere else at least he made them better. Seriously? How can you think this is unfunny? Not so Kool-Aid It isn't funny. Where's the handle? is genius. Lame. [/ QUOTE ] I'm pretty easy to please, but for the life of me, I can't see how any guy could think Dane Cook is funny. Especially you, Siccjay. You've always struck me as pretty rough-edged and his shtick is nothing but a bunch of cutesy chick-humor fluff. I was never aware of Cook until recently stumbling upon his HBO special. All I could think is "You gotta be [censored] kidding me, right? This guy sells out arenas?" And that dumb laugh punctuating his observations. Jesus... Anyway, I figured I should get up to speed on this MySpace generation phenom. After a little poking around, it became apparent that pretty much everybody who is anybody agrees that this guy sucks. Gotta hand it to him, though; his popularity is one helluva sales job. Then again, these hipster morons who are constantly hugging each other and referring to each other as "bro"- nervously laughing at every idiotic drunken comment said "bros" mutter- will probably buy into anything the television says is 'funny'. |

[ QUOTE ]
Denis Leary's "No Cure for Cancer" and Christopher Titus' "Norman Rockwell is Bleeding" (both HBO specials, IIRC) had me rolling. [/ QUOTE ] Did Dennis Leary's band perform "I'm an assshole" at these gigs? That song is funny as hell. Maybe I'm oldschool, but I prefer deadpan of Steven Wright... |

I think I just watched every Ross Noble clip on YouTube. That guy is great, and has made this thread worth it for me.

Todd Barry. Can't find too much YouTube stuff - but he has 2 CDs - both are highly recommended...if you watch a lot of comedy on TV, you've probably seen him.
Sarah Silverman is also excellent. |
