"I LOVE YA' HONEYYYY!( GUITAR RIFF)

I personally do not like him

Montain?

Yea tennessee is full of them ya know.

I googled "Aqua Net / Motley Crue hairstyle stand-up comic" and about all I got was Amy Winehouse pages. My intrawebz researching needs some work I think.:doh!:

ok Mountain mom just told me "you didn't spell Mountain right" LOL

Ahhh. Never seen his standup.

If you wanna go with unfunny....here we go..

Blue Collar comedy guys
Kathy Griffin
Paul Reiser

That's my starting point.

If you mean mountains, I would disagree. Those are mere hills.

Did you mean Mountain Mafia?

That's a damned good starting point. I don't consider Ron White part of their crew though. He's actually good.

He's smart for touring with them they make him look like a god in comparison, but he's a part of the crew he will defend them at every turn if anything is said.

Margaret Cho
Again, Mencia
Bob Sagat

Well like the Alps. But there are mountains here.

I'm sure he would, but he's still miles ahead of those guys.

Yes, yes I did.:)

Uh oh, all the 'Entourage Metrosexuals' will be along to tell you how cool Bob is now at any moment! :rolleyes::whackit:

Gary Shandling, who the hell thinks this guy is funny?

:clap:

see, you're wrong about bob saget. he's ****ed up, but hilarious. then again, I enjoy the ****ed up humor (doug stanhope and saget both come to mind--freaking gilbert gottfried can be pretty damned dirty too).

ha, I'm no entourage metrosexual. any guy that can play danny ****ing tanner during the day whilst delivering some of the most ****ed up humor at night has my respect.

I thought he was pretty hilarious when I was around 8 or so.

Wanda Sykes is not funny.

at all.

she's apparently a lesbian, fwiw. the only reason I bring this up is that I've noticed that the openly bi/lesbian comedians I can name off the top of my head aren't funny... margaret cho and wanda sykes. is it a trend? maybe. kathy griffin isn't in that category, but she's only moderately tolerable. obnoxious, but she'll bust on somebody I hate, and it'll be just enough to force me not to change the station.

Let's be honest here, women comedians aren't funny they all have the same couple of things they talk about.

Periods
Getting ****ed
How men suck

there's a VEEEEERY small handful of women comedians that are at least decent... can't think of any off the top of my head, let's see if I can find any via the google machine...

kathleen madigan is decent.
ellen degeneres is ok in small amounts (guess that kicks the shit out of the bi/lesbian theory)
whoopi goldberg was the shit back in the day, but she had material that was definately stupid. hit/miss I guess.
sarah silverman... gah, not a fan, but she has a few slightly amusing bits. her telling of 'the aristocrats' is ok (not great)

I ove ****ed up humor. I just think Sagat makes his money off of saying dirty things that aren't funny. People love it cause "HE'S DANNY TANNER OMG!!" That novelty wore off about two jokes in for me.

He was funny in Half Baked and Huff. Haven't seen him on Entourage. It's just his stand up I can't take.

Madigan and Silverman are funny. I'd add Jeneanne Garofallo (sp?) to that list. I saw her live and laughed about as hard as I've laughed in my life. I like smart, dry humor and she is great at it.

in all fairness, I hated full house when I was younger, and I've only seen one of his stand up specials (I don't watch entourage)--'that ain't right' is pretty good. does that make me a fan? eh, maybe. the ****ed up things he's said that I've heard have been funny. but, it's subjective.

garafolo was funny years ago. haven't heard any of her stuff in a long time, so I'll reserve the right to say you're a moron :)

I remember John Laroquette (sp?) introducing a female comic once, and saying, "Our next 'comediene,' which I think is a comedian with t*ts."

Well to be honest I saw her about 5 or 6 years ago so she may have dropped off since then. (If she's still even touring.)

People have odd taste some people don't think Robin Williams is funny.

Does anyone else think Robert Schimmel is hilarious? He is admittedly incredibly vulgar.

the issue I have with garafolo, cho and (at times) whoopi goldberg is that they're all rabid left-wing liberals. I'm a right-leaning centrist, and when they rail on and on about how republicans so stupid (quoted verbatim from whoopi when she hosted the oscars one year), it's old before they even begin.

robin williams CAN be ****ing hilarious. then again, his schtick got old years ago when he was still doing coke. when freaking family guy gets a decent zinger out of your cocaine schizophrenia, you know you've gone overboard. and williams is highly prone to that.

You're nuts. The Larry Sanders Show is one of the best sitcoms of all time.

Maria Bamford is excellent in part because she talks about basically anything but those three things.

her name sounds familiar.

after quick google search, I remember her. I saw her on comedy central once--made me chuckle.

He used to be funny, but all his stuff nowadays is just extremely obvious stereotyping and jokes that have been done to death. People who still like Robin Williams are fooled by his rapid fire improvisation. "Wow, how did he come up with that joke about how lots of Chinese people own laundromats off the top of his head?!? And then followed it up with a joke about how gay people are highly fashionable! GENIOUS*!!!!!!!1!"



*CP spelling

The Larry Sanders show....I didn't enjoy that.

And we're talking about standup, if you wanna be honest Dane Cook has been in a bunch of funny movies no one is talking about that.

I may not have seen the right stuff but I don't think his standup is all that funny and for the most part seems stale. Also speaking of joke thieves...

However I usually enjoy his acting in more serious roles.

You have to ****ing be kidding me. Dane Cook's movies are even WORSE than his stand-up.

eh, 'bunch of' is a subjective term. in all seriousness, all his movies are the ****ing same.

cook: WHEW< I'm a zany every-man who spazzes out randomly
random hot chick: I don't like you
antihero who hates cook: I'm gonna get the girl! pussy!
random hot chick: wow, I like you.
cook: NOT AGAIN! (swoops up, pulls a rabbit out of his ass)
BAMF... you like ME now!
random hot chick: I like you now!

This bit I find to be amusing.

Robin Williams the actor: often quite good

Robin Williams the comedian: washed up crap

This.

You don't think Waiting is a funny movie?

There must be a generational thing here.

KC Star ripped he concert-said it was lame and expensive.

waiting is funny. dane cook is NOT what made that movie.

I guess he was OK in Mr. Brooks. Probably because he wasn't trying to be funny.

I wouldn't consider Waiting to be a "Dane Cook movie."

And I'm younger than you are. It's not a generational thing. I just have taste.

I need to see that, if only to watch him get brutally murdered.

He plays a fairly minor role.

Who can forget his memorable performance as Rodman's sidekick?

Yep, he's funny when you're a kid.

****...THAT. I would rather watch 24 hours of "Murder She Wrote" while getting a culture than watch Sarah Silverman.

I just thought he was amped and goofy. And those later comic-relief gigs were just ****ing brutal to watch. I remember thinking, "can we get Williams, Whoopi, and Crystal off the ****ing stage asap, please".

Yep, that's like saying Stiller was the star of "Dodge Ball".:shake:

My fiance loves it when I give her "the goat."

how do you give her the 'grcoat?'

This group is too old and stodgy to get Dane Cook. I love the guy and think he's hilarious. Most here do not for various reasons.

Of course, this is the same group that didn't like the best offensive coach in Chiefs history...)

R

U

Serious?

ROFLROFLROFLROFL

I don't like his stand-up. Great actor, comedic and dramatic.

True. Everyone cannot think that all comedians are funny.

This post rocks! :LOL:

Bill Hicks is one of my all time favorite comedians.

Uh, yeah. I am. What kind of person wouldn't like one of the key predecessors to Arrested Development and 30 Rock?

Oh. That kind.

(And again, I'm neither old nor stodgy. I don't like Dane Cook because I'm not a ****ing reerun.)

It's like listening to a drunk frat boy regale the audience with tales of humorless, irrelevant douchiness.

A better explaination of Dane Cook cannot be found anywhere.

God damn I'm the man!:D

Yep. Spot on.

I still have no idea who the hell Dane Cook is.

In this case, ignorance really is bliss. Trust me, you are better off not knowing who he is. You are not missing a damn thing.

Do yourself a favor and don't look into it.

To tell you the truth, I don't hate him. He has made me laugh many times. The only reason I really don't like him is b/c he has been caught blatantly plagiarizing other comedians material.

And he can't even do that right.

That's the kind of thing I am talking about. I was about in tears the first time I heard him do that sweet and sour sauce bit. And the drive thru lady "where do I go?". :LOL:


I think the one thing that we can learn from this thread is that everyone has different taste in comedy. Just look at the last 50 posts or so for proof. If you watch a comedian and you laugh, that is great. Everyone should laugh and enjoy life. And if someone feels the need to tell somebody what they should consider funny or not funny, that person is most likely an arrogant asshole. ;)

:LOL:
Now that is funny. That describes a lot of stupid movies these days. Not just DC movies.

"Get ****ed, Chuck".
