Your favorite comedians

Bill Hicks is #1.

CK is also pretty good. Grew onto be after watching this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ETu_fuRXuYQ

The guy still cracks me up. Has since the 80's. Sees the world a lot like I do. And the produce genocide is always a chuckle too.

 

[zmetallica]

Pablo Francisco
Daniel Tosh
George Carlin
Jeremy Hotz
the sklar brothers
Brian Regan
Demetri Martin
mitch hedberg

It was always going to be Billy. Not only could he have you falling over with laughter, his ultimate fucking faith in humanity - despite its numerous failings - is something I've spent my entire life identifying with.

Bailey gets a vote too, especially for the Axis of Evil thing on Part Troll, nevermind the Portishead and Kraftwerk parodies!

Were you referring to Hicks or Connolly in the first paragraph, given the general, common distinction between their first names?

Indeed, I don't remember much of the Axis of Evil section (only had a loan of the dvd), other than their secretary on the phone... "Oh no sorry, they're all out right now....Oh I dunno, doing evil, I suppose. *loud bimbo laugh*"
Have you seen his 'Bewilderness' show? "You see, Scotland...it's a fantastic country, but they do produce the absolute, top-of-the-class, A-grade nutters."

 

[Lies and Perfidy]

the sklar brothers

hahah shit yes

Choppa Four went down in the Hudson River...AND CHOPPA FOUR WAS THE FIRST ON THE SCENE!
Choppa Four! We opened fire on Channel Seven's pussy newsvan!
Who killed Tupac Shakur? CHOPPA FOUR!

Yep, I like all of his stuff. I was talking about Hicks, as much as I like Billy, he's never really had a transcendent affect on me!

George Carlin and Mitch Hedburg are my favorites.

 

[Liverslapper]

Dave Chappelle, his skits always make me laugh very hard.

 

[JBroll]

Bill Hicks, Lenny Bruce, Eddie Izzard.

I'm bumping this thread because I think I found a new favorite comedian...

Have you guys ever heard Jim Gaffigan's stuff?

I was in tears at work yesterday when a co-worker brought his entire comedy show on iTunes... Seriously: my make up smeard all over
my face from crying

 

[Det Som Engang Var]

Jim is pretty cool.

Mine are Carlin, Louis CK, and Zach Galifinakas.

Great show, not so great stand up.

I don't like comedians that look, feel, and sound awkward. Gaffigan and Hedburg are prime examples. Nervousness does not a funny make.

Lisa Lampenelli on the other hand... she's loud and beligerant and insanely hilarious. Joe Rogan is funny too, especially when cuts down people in the audience.

hmmm.... I see your point but I don't think Gaffigan is one of those at all...
Lisa Lampenelli is funny, but she does THE SAME THING! racial jokes/ making fun of audience... yada yada... and for me: she is only funny once...
guys like C.K, L.Black, and Gaffigan I can hear over and over...

I don't like stand up comedians in general, I out negative you!

 

[Captain Beard]

No, out-negativing would be watching Everybody Loves Raymond or Titus. Even though both ended.

 

[Shpongled]

In all honesty, I find it hard to laugh at pretty much any comedian. The whole thing just feels forced to me. I don't want to feel like I'm supposed to be laughing when someone says a joke. I guess I'm a bit stubborn because I look at it like "OK this guy thinks he can make me laugh and I don't think he can."

I love Lisa Lampenelli though for 2 reasons:

1. I haven't seen enough of her stuff to see her repeat herself
2. Her joke about Pam Anderson having a show on VH1 called "I Fucked the 80's" KILLED me! I swear I laughed for like 3 days at that joke hahahaha.
